  1. That is awesome! Very true to source, looks great, lots of details.
  2. This is a great improvement! Thanks so much for the list of part changes, that is very helpful. I like the additional engine mods as well, very accurate.
  3. The blue and chrome combo looks great! Very nice racing bike.
  4. A good place to start would be 42043 Arocs. It has all the needed parts to build one yourself, excluding the Power Functions elements. Or, there is Lucio Switch's massive model, or D3K's model. Also try looking on Bricksafe or MOCpages for other models. Good luck!
  5. Beautiful! That is incredible, it looks exactly like the real one, and has most of the same functions. Great job! This belongs in Hall of Fame for sure.
  6. I have this set and was able to motorize it using two L-motors. This looks pretty cool, might try this sometime soon. And see If I can motorize it. And I thought all-lime was cool.
  7. Welcome to EuroBricks! Very nice model, those stickers look great. Now you need something to put on the trailer...
  8. Wonderful model! It looks great and has a TON of functions. I especially like the 2-circuit idea, I may try that later for an idea of mine. Good luck in the contest!
  9. Wow. That is a beautiful build. It looks organic, like a bio-mechanical insect, wonderful design.
  10. That would be an epic event to go to, but I'm in school... I cannot wait to see what vehicles will be there, good luck to the competitors.
  11. The catamaran is incredible! It looks amazing, and it actually floats, AND it is RC! That is just awesome. Totally worth the amount of time spent on it.
  12. Nice job on getting it to be compact, it looks great. Can you post a few detail pics of the front axles? How exactly is drive transmitted to the wheels?
  13. Very nice. Seems to work smoothly, I'll have to test this mechanism.
  14. I tried to explain, but cannot do so satisfactorily. If you really must know the answer, create a separate topic, I can no longer help you. IF I have time, I might make a video to show the difference.
  15. Yeah, like I said, it was kinda hard to explain. Anyway, in practice, the coupled motors = better performance.
  16. Here is my best attempt at explaining that statement: One L-motor has X amount of torque. This is applied to shaft A. Shaft A provides a total speed of 1. The same occurs for shaft B. When they are coupled, the torque becomes X + X. This makes the speed 1 + 1, which equals a speed of 2. Thus, coupling the motors provides greater speed by strengthening the motor's ability to propel the buggy. Since the two L-motors are coupled, it basically has the effect of two motors driving one shaft. I hope that is clear enough, the real equations are pretty complex, but that is essentially what happens.
  17. Good luck! What scale are you gonna use? 1:10 or 1:8?
  18. As far as I can tell, there is almost no stress whatsoever. Like you, I don't really care. Hopefully, I'll have the chassis instructions finished by Monday.
  19. Sorry for the delay in posting the pics, I had some technical difficulties, which were coupled with misreading an assignment date, causing me to believe I had two days to write an entire paper... @ Offroadcreat1ons & letsbuild: When (if) you make the mods, please post the results, I would love to see them! Here are the requested photos (mini-instructions) of the swing-arms and a few more pics of the chassis with partial removal of the bodywork and one swing-arm removed. I have started to make some photo-sequence instructions of the chassis, but I don't know when they'll be ready.

IMG_3209 by Valerie IMG_3217 by Valerie IMG_3215 by Valerie Thanks for looking!
  20. Looks great. I wish I had seen this before I began attempting to complete one I had started long ago for this contest... I was planning to begin this weekend.
  21. Wow! Very nice MOC! The cranes, trees and the archway are the best parts, full of detail.
  22. Wish I could build something like that and call it a start... Good job, can't wait to see what it becomes!
  23. Those are some very nice trees, its neat to see them all lined up together.
  24. The drive works, but at about half speed when it is taken out, so I left it in for greater speed.
