SlammerVan RC - 42030 C-Model
Mantarri replied to Immo's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Nice looking C+ model (C Model almost. ), so is it a souped up van? I find that the motors go slower in reverse, adding gears would maginify that.- 7 replies

Generic Contest Discussion
Mantarri replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Guess my Battle bots guess was correct. -
Edit: content removed by Jim 42043 Pros (I have it) Great mix of parts, 2 diffs, 1 LA, 4 pneumatic cylinders, 1 pump, L motor, MB logo. :P I have 42043, and you get 4 cylinders, while most set with LAs have 3 max. My friend has 42055, good bulk parts set, not so good if you want some specific/special parts

OK, I'm gonna give you the simple way to tell. Regular tow truck: Outriggers point behind the tow truck to balance it. Rotator: Outriggers go out to each side, to keep the rotator stable when the boom is, well, rotated.

Does this seem sketchy?
Mantarri replied to aminnich's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Just use bricklink, I got my MB arocs (used, but in like new condition, missing box and extra parts) for $225 including shipping & handling, while the new thing sells for $270, I can get a link for the specific seller if you want, it shipped pretty fast too. :) -
I thought it didn't look like one, BTW that LEGO tow truck looks awesome! :)

Cool! By the way, this is kinda me doing a cherry pic MOC, and I'm seeing it could very well be used as a crane just as well as a tow truck.

[MOC] Demolition Excavator
Mantarri replied to Triswa's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Wow, I've always liked this certain type of machine, give me ideas of my own.... Anyway, to the person to the person who suggested using LAs to be able to enter in TC10, TC10 said LAs weren't allowed. :( -
Gonna go on a very short vacation, be back talking to you guys (and working on the Rotator) next Sunday, or Monday. :)

Impossible LEGO
Mantarri replied to Boxerlego's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
They do seal nicely though, and with one on the other side, the air has nowhere to get in (my theory). -
OK, I'm gonna be on a short vacation starting in 10 minutes from now, I'll be back sometime next Sunday (the 10th),and I'm not gonna be taking my 2700+ LEGO Technic set with me, so no more progress till next Sunday/Monday.

Thanks for the tip, I've been starting to realize that I'm going to have to plan this out a bit more thoroughly.

Driving ring changers will be placed vertically. The crane arm is still gonna be awhile, as I need a finished body first Outrigger extension is motorized, turntable slewing rotating will probably be motorized, as for the crane arm, lifting and extension will be pneumatic. Thanks, didn't know that I could sit the title myself. You are right; the back was a bit low, I've highered it a bit now.
