    You have packed a lot of functions into a little area you need a lego technic man to drive however the crack up is how the gauges vibrante when the steering wheel turns also how you have camouflaged the ir receiver is very well done great moc I like it a lot

    after seeing the odd glimpse of your MAN while perusing effermans build thread, I have been waiting quite patiently for this build. I'm not disappointed, some very different build ideas and very well executed design and build, well worth the wait. Are you planning on releasing a .lxf?

    Need to use laptop not phone but yes and yes though for pitch change the swash plate moves up as the disc of rotation works 90 degree out from the controls

    Its a hard one, We never ran crossed braced stacks on the K100's, you are missing the trade mark twin air intake snorkels, the rear deck step area is only as wide as the frame rails. otherwise its a lovely moc.

    Mate have you talking kiwi in no time and excellent upgrade to what was a very disappointing set. The lego group should be taking notes

    Im really loving the small car craze your having at the moment you should enter the buzWizz promotion

    Instantly recognisable as a k100 aerodyne, I love the battery box placement, just needs twin stacks and twin snorkels and tanks. I have been slowly turning your K100 crane truck into a 88' flattop as I used to drive one but certainly this would be an addition to the shelf. I have gone back to the drawing board As I certainly want to run twin rear tires..

    Hi @Jeroen Ottens Im more of a lurker than a commentor, but since you made the decision to go with a more compact gearbox, Id match it with a compact V6 motor. I know Im the minority with keeping the pushrod suspension @sm1995 your fellow American Ken Blocks mustang and Escort both sport pushrod front ends, common to race cars admittedly not production cars.

    I really like the blue S660 james, are you planning a LDD file for it? or more photos as its a nippy wee bugger!

    There is a lot to like about this moc, you have some very creative ideas so call it Mk1 and have another crack as you have the basics of a nice trial truck there.

    The class not only is a great set but is also one of the best parts pack you can buy

    The Germans where very cunning and had braked steering system
  14. brickless_kiwi
    I quite like where this moc is going the only thing that jumps out at me is the spacing of your wheels away from the bearing point since they are for transport you can get away with it.

    The white car front wheels certainly sit better no positive camber as a chassis study in find it interesting more so the rear suspension setup
  16. brickless_kiwi
    I am enjoying watching this build, very dense and packed, I like how your doing the front landing legs.

    The Blue Scania ( in the photo ) the driver has set the air suspension to the lowest setting? I have at least a good 150mm clearance from tires to guard on my scania on the front I honestly think once you build the model you will be happy with the results, I don't know what render programme you are using, but it clearly defines each brick where as in real life they tend to bend seamlessly. Personally you have raised the bar of building.

    subbed, I will be watching this closely.. Quite a few different design and build technics. I quite enjoy WIP's as you see ideas ( the suspension mounts is genius ) the playability of this model looks amazing I know you want it to be Non RC but this model is crying out for the ability to be retrofitted. I drove a "Gin" pole version in the tar sands above Fort Mc Murray in Canada where you have a winch up the front with a roller on the tail of the bed for moving mud tanks and have "Gin" poles which you drive of secondary winches on the deck to act as a boom.

    Its the little details that appear when you look for the third or fourth time, like the passenger grab rail on the dash, or how the rear tow bar is integrated into the rear bull bars There is a lot of clever design, and integration of beams and joints, certainly another master class in building.
  20. brickless_kiwi
    very possible if you stay in the Anthem scale, though Id go 8x4.

    Mr @efferman You area very talented Lego builder, its not till you have both files side by side until you see the suttle differences in the hood and front apron. In the next day or so I should be able to start building my frame in real life ( but I have enjoyed the LDD build of which I have used your K100 front end so this Mack does have Ackerman steering and I like the look of trident wheels ( I have them on my Super Mack in real life ). The frame is the correct wheelbase according to sariels scale calculator, I just wanting too finish the tanks and steps. Powered by twin L motors
  22. brickless_kiwi
    I like your approach @efferman though yes the day cab wheelbase should be shorter for the life of me I can't find any information on the wheelbases though I have taken a guess and removed 4 studs out of the wheelbase to get a better look ( I know @M_longer will beat me with a scale rule ) at the moment this is allpurely digital for me until my set's arrive and then getting time to build them is another thing. I will probably keep the skin of the anthem but completely change the frame.
  23. brickless_kiwi
    RC of course If you remove the mp8 from under the hood, there is room, though the wheel base needs to be shrunk, it just seems to me lego missed a great opportunity to produce a C model with all those parts.
  24. brickless_kiwi
    Love the work, however just to throw a curve ball how hard would it be to do a day cab or the 48" low sleeper?
  25. brickless_kiwi
    What a magnificent beast they didn't have these in the tar sands when I was there. You have a moc that I would like to build as it has some clever parts of the design
