The axle on the left side of the vehicle is clearly yellow so it is not a continuation of the tan axle you're speaking about

So in terms of parts it has, in addition to all-new panels and rotor blade, both new and old CV joint and 3 DBG 11x15 frames, a HUGE number of lime recolors, including pins and connectors https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=22961 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=15100 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=18654 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=32034 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=63869 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=60483 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=6538c https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=32054 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=87082 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=x136 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=18944 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=64680 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=24116 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=15458 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=64392 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=x346 Lime is life, lime is love And also an interesing use of 4L bar in bright green (?) to strengthen 6628 pin connection

Great guide, thank you! Parts from Bricklink sometimes look suspicious. And the problem is that old Lego molds can be a bit different from modern, so I can't immediately accuse the shop of selling counterfeit parts if the parts I got differ from my parts from new sets. Thin technic beams are particularly hard

Great photo! After this, the only strange thing for me is lack of the new biscuit connector

The links from rebrickable point to google photos, not google plus. I don't think google photos will shutdown anytime soon -

I am no expert, but I think it has come up with such a battery. It's called 18560. -

You're right, that's more probable -
Is it confirmed that this crane is also designed by Markus Kossmann? Does the second panel have MK sticker?

My main rope, the one that goes to the big drum made of two pulley wheels, has just torn. And I must say it is a huge pain to do the thread routing! Did you use some special kind of reinforced thread? I am using a simple sewing thread.

As for mistakes in LDD file, there was only one significant mistake. 8L axle with stop should be replaced with 9L axle here Also, there were several missing pins and some pins of a wrong type and some pins with no apparent purpose, for instance, inside the gearbox. It is hard to keep track of all of them :) I added one 3x11 panel to the top of the gearbox, I guess it is supposed to go there, there is a row of black pins for it and it is the last panel from 42055.

Hello! I just finished building your wonderful crane. It is really impressive. I did not fully understand its true dimensions from the pictures. It is so huge I can freely drive my 42030 Volvo under it. The rubber tire engagement mechanism is genius and I like the gearbox, the diagonal axle trick is interesting. I love how modular the crane is, it is a pleasure to connect big parts with “pins with stop bushes”, it feels almost like an official set. I hope someone takes advantage of that in the instructions. Unfortunately, the actual functions work poorly. The need to constantly apply pressure kinda kills the pleasure and the tire slips nevertheless, making the movement not steady (it is really slow anyway). I understand that there is a lot of friction in the gearbox. The top two clutches are not fixed (old school solution) and constantly get in the way when you don’t want them to, making the friction worse. The fact that these gears are not synchronized does not help either. The lowermost block with 24 tooth gear is not attached firmly enough. I had to put the blue axle pins or even the 4L axle back in place many times, they are easily kicked out when the movement is blocked down the drivetrain. This mostly happens with boom lifting, not with the rope-driven parts. Maybe there was some solution and I missed it? The upper part of the diagonal axle construction can be easily misaligned. The two 4L axles which hold two halves of superstructure together are highly stressed and also tend to fall off. I connected them with two axle joiners and an axle which helps somewhat. Maybe that part needs more strengthening? The universal joint has slipped off its 4L axle one or two times under load. I think two t-shaped beams interfere with engagement of the clutch responsible for boom lifting. The other three are noticeably easier to move.
