I'm not a fan of pneumatics in practise, but it looks great and with this scale, even better.

I voted. The question is, do you plan to stay "clean" like with Charger or modified parts will be allowed?

I added two manual functions: - ripper tilting (manual) - blade tilting (manual) and prepared video, enjoy :)

The only ones who sucks are chinese copycats. Period.

I am looking forward to instruction for Charger. @nicjasno where I can put my suggestions? I have two in mind.

@nicjasno I have a question about bionicle parts you use in front suspension. I mean for example connector with ball sacket (93571). I orderd couple of them and they fit veery tight. Does this connection anyhow slow/block the front suspension?

And frame 11x15 in black.

Blue lift arm is too short/located 1 stud closer to the front. Second thing, look at the engine, the right side, do you see something wrong? :D

Photo is a bit crappy and under angle so maybe... We'll see. But in case you are right, the tire has to be quite big to keep proportions with this type of rim.

Where do you see this rim? In front there is some sort of slim rim, definitely not the same as in dodge.

Am I seeing right, jeep has rims from 10265? Edit: No.. There are not :(

Hi, I present my newest creation – tracked Dozer Caterpillar D10T. I decided to go for old technic models style – without panels, frame construction. I like to see working mechanisms, the guts/insides (not sure which word should I use in this sentence, native English guys, please help me out :D) of the model. Here you have some photos, video will be available soon. I hope you like it Details: scale 1:17 length: 40 cm, width: 26 cm, height: 23 cm, weight: 1.65 kg drive – XL motor smooth steering thanks to subtractor – L motor ripper, raising and lowering – M motor ripper tilting - manual blade, raising and lowering – L motor blade tilting - manual tensioners for both tracks individual suspension for non-driven wheels working, fake, chain driven V8 engine openable doors locked tools compartment detailed engine bay and operator cabin Additionally: model in scale of technic figure power source – buwizz can be easily switched for battery box and two IR receivers model can rise itself above the ground with ripper and blade Instructions: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-59916/keymaker/tracked-dozer-caterpillar-d10t-rc/#details Video of upgraded version: Photos, before upgrade (more you can find here: https://bricksafe.com/pages/keymaker/6.-dozer-caterpillar-d10):

That's a shame, I thought it is some valid indication about Ferrari model.

Anyone, anything? I found something like this:

And this is also very important info (apart from concept of gearbox itself of course). Thanks to that everyone knows, that this concept can be used in RC models without fear to lose integrity or skipping gears. Thank you for that!

I would appreciate a good habit to presenting gearboxes working under some load. Because there are many, many brilliant ideas and concepts, but part of them are useless if you put some average load on them. They start to skip, lose integrity etc. So I wish to know at start, which one are only nice concepts, and which one actual can deal with some load and be used in RC middle scale models.

Thank you. I'm recreating this solution: And somehow 6539 is ok in this build (I assume, I do not have it). But 18947 touches diff case (not much, but still). I know that 6539 is shorter - 2 studs but I do not see how it fits there.

I have question for owners of part 6539 and 18947 (driving rings). Is 6539 slightly narrower in diameter than 18947? Because I am building live axle with diff lock and 18947 touches diff case ;/

Thank you, I have found what I needed on one of your streams, when you were improving front bar :)

Could you add some quick video which shows how front suspension and steering works? It is very interesting solution.

I am looking forward to this RC motors Is there some more info related to them?

@arieben @Jundis Thank you for kind words. This is one of my first MOCs, at least the first I decided to capture on video. Back then, when I was building it, my part base was pretty limited. Now the situation is better so I have more possibilities to adjust color scheme in my present MOCs.

Great video! But I have one suggestion, you should check every pair in every two configuration to exclude influence of friction of the part behind the lever and to confirm the winner of every round. I left this comment also in comments section of the video.

I have found some clips and convinced myself to put some effort to prepare video related to this MOC :)

There is a reason why this project won, amazing job!
