42107 - Ducati Panigale V4R
T Lego replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Great looking motorcycle! Looks like we are getting more #3 connectors and #5 & #6 panels in red! Very curious about the new shocks as well. -
Ferrari F40
T Lego replied to jorgeopesi's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
@Gray GearApril the first, obviously. You can read it here: https://rebrickable.com/blog/258/rebrickable-has-been-acquired-by-guangdong-loongon/ -
Ferrari F40
T Lego replied to jorgeopesi's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Thorsten has deleted his account on rebrickable after he saw the takeover joke from rebrickable. He didn't realize it was a joke at the time which is why he deleted immediately to avoid counterfied. -
@astyanax I'm glad you like it I believe the tapered panel causes the door not to be hold in place correctly when closed.

[MOC] Zenvo concept car
T Lego replied to Jeroen Ottens's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
That's a yet another great and innovative moc Jeroen, my compliments!. Very ingenoius wing mechanism - I would love to be able to sudy it it better detail. I am very curious about the brakes too! I have many questions about them. Judging from the pictures, it looks like they are only installed on the rear axle. Is that because of space restrictions? Do they opperate like real disc brakes? Do they operate using rubber parts? Which PF motor powers them? Could you post a picture a picture of the rear axle with the wheels off? Regarding the bodywork, I am not sold on it immediately. IMO it looks rather messy, but it does have an aggressive stance which characterizes the Zenvo. Looking forward to seeing a video! -
Hypercar 2XV10
T Lego replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Very interesting WIP topic which I will be following for sure! I'd love to see more about this 'new type of a paddle shift system'. I am not a huge fan of the bodywork which looks a bit 'boxy', but you're priorities are clearly set in the mechanical field. Btw, fully agreed here: Good luck! -
Generic Contest Discussion
T Lego replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I like the idea of a small car contest. IMO the sclale of the corvette is too small to recreate a car accurately enough. On top of that, you can not really add any features other than steering and a working engine. 1:12 would be more suitable. The scale allows to incorparate suspension, hog steering, advanced door mechanisms, active aerodynamics and a fake engine in a car whilst not compremising the interior or exterior. This scale would give a more 'technical' aspect to this challenge. Suitable wheels are 56908. We are looking at builds (LaFerrari, Mclaren P1 (still a WIP of me) and aventador SVJ respectively) arround the 1500 parts range. The aventador is designed by @mihao -
[MOC] Pagani Zonda R
T Lego replied to dls7223685's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Great work on this replica! The curves you made using flex axles and panels make it Instantly recognizable I love the location of the batterieboxes as well! It's a pity there isn't a video showing it's perfomance as well as the minimal pictures doing this creation justice. Hope to see more in the future! -
Well as for the TLG, they already have a hard time designing a dead simple suspension setup which can actually hold the cars weight. Various MOC designers have replicated the suspension setup of the real life counterpart. Sheepo for example, goes as far as constructing realistic caster, camber and kingpin angles.

Technic 2020 Set Discussion
T Lego replied to dimaks13's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I don't like olive grean either . I would have prefered the car to be in a different colour like yellow. I predict the wheels will be in a bronze-isch colour representing the launch edition as well. Bronze rims wouldn't look great on most MOCs just like the dark blue bugatti rims IMO. Luckely quite a few people paint and sell them so we get the option to obtain them in different colours. -

Ah I see, me dumbhead thought you were refering to panel #18. I don't think replacing the #21 panel with the #4 is a good idea since the flow of the bottem line would get disturbed. Of course you can give it a try, that's what lego is all about after all.
-
You are right that the panel in the door looks a bit chunky. I have considered using the 5x11 panel but that one is 2 studs wide which causes trouble. IMO it doesn't really disturb the appearance. The side view was improved after Bruno's advice though by mounting the #4 panel behind the door higher.

Technic 2020 Set Discussion
T Lego replied to dimaks13's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Oh gosh a lambo.... Very curious about the colour. Please lego, please stop using panel fairing #1 as rear view mirrors. (Assuming they used it when looking at the shape of the reveal cloth) -
Technic 2020 Set Discussion
T Lego replied to dimaks13's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
A Lambo could very well be the next car in the 'Ultimate' series since it is a member of the VW group too. Looking what Lego did two years ago, I predict we will get more information in a roughly one week from now. -
IMO starting with the interior or exterior is not really doesn't matter. In terms of part usage for a good looking bodywork, there is a recipe wich IMO gives the best results. Use as many panels as possible in addition with some flex axles, (angled) connectors and system bricks (mainly slopes and tiles). Furthermore it is really important that you avoid liftarm stacking. About scaling you should defenitly use Jeroen's advise.

It looks great indeed! I am glad you fitted 3x11 panels on the bonnet. I agree with KD123 about the rear window. To get a better sense of depth you could consider to place a beam which runs from the bottem to top of the rear window in the center. If you decide to give it a try, I recommend to do it in black. Anyways, I am looking forward to the final car!

Great to see some progress on this build! The overall bodywork looks pretty good and I love the detailed engine. How long does it take to open the hood? I also have some minor critics, firstly regarding the bonnet. Whilst the shape is pretty good, I don't like the stacked liftarms on top. It looks like you can get rid of many by placing two 3x11 panels at the sides and one at the very front of the bonnet. Secondly think that the B pillar looks a bit messy. And last, is it really necessary to have 4 shocks on the rear axle? I am looking forward to the next update!

Looking great so far! I really like the scale you're building this moc in. It allows you to put plenty of functions inside and you can add many details without swallowing your entire parts collection.

@Leviathan Thanks for sharing this beautiful le mans racing car! You managed to fit a bunch of realistic functions without compromising any of the exterior or cabin - exellent work Creative solutotion placing the paddle shifters on the back of the car which seems to improve playability and doesn't disturb the look from the rear. Furthermore clever inboard suspension and I love the fact that the car is modular - working on a modular car myself too . Have you attempted to close the huge gaps at the front wheels? I suppose it was too complicated considering the wheels turing , moving axles and little space availability to mount any panels.

[MOC] SUV Racer Mk II
T Lego replied to KirTech LAB's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Great work! By just looking at the bare chassis I can say with certainty that it must be as sollid as concrete Great job on the panneled bodywork too! The only thing missing is a video of the suv conquering some more extreme terrain, where it's ultimately built for.
