It does noting at all, unfortunately. Not even making a noise. And yes, I've tried 3 different receivers with that motor. And different motors on that port. The port on the receiver is fine, it is definitely the servo that is dead.. :-(

Sorry for the necro bump, but opening a new thread does seam suboptimal either.... Ist there a way to change the servo in this model, without taking it apart fully? mine died a week ago and nie the replacement has arrived... any help is greatly appreciated! thanks!

Hi guys, here is another one selling instructions from madocca on eBay: http://www.ebay.at/itm/182280805410?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT. I've reported him, maybe other can chime in as well.

For inventories of sets I usually use bricklink, as they are correct inventoried and mostly even peer reviewed. In this case, here you go: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=8293-1 HTH!

That made me lol in the waiting room of the dentist!! :)

Just to let you know, there is a sale in Austria: there is 20 % off on almost everything at Thalia online shop for first time customers. Which means that you can get the EW160E for € 72 including free shipping. This is the best price in Austria currently, at least according to my recherche yesterday evening... There are many other Lego sets available too.... Have fun! Ps: Here is the needed code to get the discount: AFFNCUTHA

I did that on two occasions. So at least, it did work for me.

Hi Roni, I'm just curious, can you give us an update on what has happened between the end of the kickstarter campaign and now? Thx!

You may have hope! I've received shipping confirmation at around 7:30 am today. They are really fast. Also, in the past they did deliver on Saturday too.

Already did, at 00:01 in the night! :) I feared it would be sold out very quickly. But it seems they have more stock than in the past for similar offers....

As several other offers have been posted here already, I add my 2 cents also: In Austria, Interspar online has it on sale for € 120,- incl. free shipping today, but only today.

Thanks a lot! No special parts in this - like it very much!

Awesome!!!! Would love to rebuild for my kid. Can you share more details of the inner workings? Many thanks!

Vienna, Austria. A larger supermarket chain had a discount weekend (20 % off on all toys with free delivery above € 100,-). they do this 3 to 4 times a year... Their prices on Lego are quite competitive even without discounts....

Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3245 for € 127,20 today, and a Volvo L350F for € 127,09 in back in February. Both new and in sealed boxes, and price included shipping to my place. good? Edit: Typos

Version 3.1 is ready and online. I touched everything, but now it the design is finished. I'll probably do more of them, but I won't change the design any more. Reworking all of them to have a homogeneous styling is too much work. So, here is a quick rundown of the changes: Added cutting helper lines - makes it easier to cut at the right position, I still recommend a cutting knife though. Changed the Headline to Italic, gave it a black outline Moved the set number from the headline to a separate item on the bottem the stripe is now solid white again Got rid of the "features" headline - it was a bit redundant anyway Changed the size of the font used in the feature list Removed the weight from the dimensions, because there is no reliable information on this (I used the wrong data beforehand, the one from the whole set, incl Box and manual.) Added the Designer The bottom Block of information uses a smaller font size than the features-block I also reworked all features, now I am quite happy with them. Also, I added some more sets, currently the following are available: 42009 42024 42029 42030 42039 42043 8043 8285 8455 9398 and a Template which uses a Lego Duplo car as an example. Here is a preview: As usual, the rest is in the bricksafe folder.

ok, I think I'll call it a day for now. I redid all 8 plaques, and created a Template file for further use. Can be found in the brick safe folder. Feel free! Many thanks for all your contributions and opinions! For creating the image of the model itself, here is what I did - I used Photoshop Express for this. .) Get a high-res image of the model, one with a white background .) Up the Contrast somewhat .) Convert the image to a greyscale .) Add an "glow outline" filter .) finished - now copy this image into the template and resize as needed. Best regards, Alex

Here is one with a colored model: http://bricksafe.com/files/Doomedace/ucs-plaques-for-technic-sets/archive/8043-v2-color.png/800x400.jpg What do you think? Better?

Migev, I've tried adding the Technic Logo. But not on top, the Logo is not that important.... Coloring the model; Not to sure about this - they will be placed next / in front of the model itself. I need to try this out. The Features are taken from the description of brickset.com - from what I understand this is taken from Lego directly. And yes, the Upper- Lowercase mix is crap - But I'm not too happy with the listings overall at the moment, I need to figure this out in the next days... Anyhow, here is V2 of the 8043 plaque. What do you think? (Image removed, due to size constraints) BTW: I originally thought to print them on sticker paper, and put it on this lego plate: https://alpha.brickl...lor=11#T=C&C=11 Any other ideas?

Which ones would you need?

Well, thank you both for your kind words! Feel free to re-use them. The Featurelist is just copied from the bs website, propably could be done with more love. If you need anything changed, just let me know - or do it yourself, the .psd files are online.

Hi Guys, my name is Alex, and more information about me can be found in the "Hello...." forum. As I use my Technic Sets mostly for display, I thought I'll pimp them a little by making a corresponding stickers. I did several different ones as of now. It was just a quick experiment, to see if I can do it, and what it would look like. I just attach the one for 8043 here. ________________________________ Update: 2016-05-06: Here is what the decals look like now: The others can be found in the bricksafe folder. http://bricksafe.com...or-technic-sets Currently, the following are done: 42009 42024 42029 42030 42039 42043 42056 8043 8285 8455 9398 and a Template which uses a Lego Duplo car as an example. Feel free to modify and create your own, please let me know which others you did. ______________________ What do you think? - of the general idea? - of the actual implementation? What about the feature list? I had to lower resolution and quality of the plaque, but I have the original sized photoshop files still available, so I can still change stuff. Data was actually taken from the brickset database, so I hope it is correct. Best regards, Alex PS: (I was unable to find an existing thread here, so if this is already covered, then please lock this and guide me.)
