Simple and bloody gorgeous -
Ah, now I see where the pic can be deceptive. So, the connector in the middle is driven by an L motor in the carrier and delivers power to all the functions in the superstructure. The two tan 20T bevel gears are connected via a grey 20T clutch gear that spins freely on the axle connected to the L motor.

Thanks for the kind comments I first saw this in a build by Sander Mulders. For some reason the two gears don't always line up perfectly, so you need to fiddle around with them to make sure the combo sits just right and without any unnecessary friction. It's connected, via an assortment of red spur gears and another gray spur gear, to an M motor.

Hadn't whipped up anything new in ages. Was stuck on this thing for just as long and eventually figured it out in spite of exacerbating brain rot. Tons of room for improvement but a fun model nonetheless; always wanted a blue crane; and needed to get it done as part of a long healing process. Features: - RC drive (2 PF XL) with planetary hubs - RC 4-wheel steering (1 PF servo) - RC outriggers (1 PF M) - RC crane functions (1 PF L) through a two-way, five-switch gearbox - independent suspension - vertically mounted diffs for limited track width. Couldn't be arsed to cram in a fake engine or third boom stage. 'tis good to be a sloth. Video coming eventually.
