Same here... until I built c models out of them. At least the leftovers are nice and organized. The point is I have nothing in the set-building queue. Quite a joy it is! -

I assume you get them when a mod sees fit. I'm not sure how the whole thing works exactly and I guess it's not wise to bring it up because of the "unwritten rule". -
There is no visible gear so far. If there is, a gear will be sticking out the back (which is not a good thing).

A lot fewer gaps than expected! The car looks stellar. Definitely on my list of sets that "I'll gawk at but never buy". Very nice! EDIT: PM me for the picture if you need it.

There are gears to be seen in that picture as well for those who are scared of gears making a getaway in the future. -
[WIP] BMW i8
BrickbyBrickTechnic replied to Rolic's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Wow! When I saw the first picture I wasn't expecting much, TBH... but this is amazing! Your construction is so clean and accurate! I am following with interest. -
Thank you! I did take a look at reproducing those. To fit the scale, I thought 6x6 dishes would be optimal, but that's a somewhat minor detail being added, at the sacrifice of the working drivetrain. So in the end, I decided against reproducing those.40t gears were also an option, however ground clearance was the next element to go, since I have a limited number of tracks.

That original box art thing from way back. It does have an XL motor on it.

Grum's Shed

Congrats on finishing such a monstrous build! It was a pleasure to see your progress. Can't wait for more, what do you plan on building next? -
Thank you very much! The tracks were used because of the scale f the model. I actually did a prototype bogie with the bigger tracks, but it was totally out of proportion. Glad you like it! Thank you! Thanks! Thanks, I'm glad you see the improvement. I understand why you would see the tracks as unusual, however, they were used for the reason outlined higher in this post. The original prototype was RC (i.e there is room) but when driving the tracks would slip off the bogies within a couple of seconds, which led to me scrapping that idea.

Hello everyone, I believe that it was @aminnich who asked what I would change on my old crop sprayer MOC had I built it as not a C-model. Well, several months later, here is the new Crop sprayer! I changed several things. One, this uses independent suspension. 2, 4wd drivetrain. 3, 2 stage sprayer arms. 4, an actual hood. 5, TRACKS! Like the 42054 c model sprayer, this one has 2 power function operated by an M motor, lowering and opening the sprayer arms. Additionally, this model uses lots of system parts for detailing. Not like Mack-amount, but considerably more than anything I have built nonetheless. The arms are also huge. They stretch 1 meter from edge to edge. By the way, the old sprayer was based on the Amazon Pantera 4505. This is based on the Goldacres G8CT tracked variant. And of course, some more pictures: That's all for today. I hope you enjoy the MOC. C&C is much appreciated! BbBT

Honestly, while the set looks like a great functional beast, I really do not like that panel job. It looks like patchwork. Can't wait to see all the metal hooks.

[WIP] New Supercar
BrickbyBrickTechnic replied to Pvdb's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Awesome! I can't wait to see how you plan on shifting that gearbox. Oh, and your engine looks really nice! -
Hello everyone. First and foremost, I feel like I owe everyone working on this project an apology. I have been meaning to complete this gearbox for weeks now, however, I have not been able to find the time to do so. I have been traveling a lot lately, and with work becoming more intense I have not had time to think of building. I should have thought of this when committing to this project, and it's clear that I have not done my part. I'm sorry. Now for the gearbox. I believe the spec called for a 4-speed. I apologize if this looks like one of @Didumos69's gearboxes in terms of layout, but, I mean, his gearbox is really the master of simplicity when a central differential is needed. I do not yet have a shifter, but what is presented should be enough to let the integrator add the 'box. Shifter soon, I promise. Note: The 24z clutch gear, the red axle 2l connector, and the grey 16z clutch gear represent the center diff, and therefore the 2 axles protruding are the inputs. (I do not own one myself). This is visible in the first pic.
