Hello,
I am new here, this is my first post, and my english isnt perfect, so sorry for any mistakas ;)
I was worked on this project for long time (its still not finished...), and now I can show some pics. Its cabin from Arocs 42043, but all the rest is my design ( I would like to notice, theres some designs, from people on youtube, this forum etc, because if something is good, I dont want to invent it a second time :D )
Soo...
TRUCK
Cabin has suspension - rubber blocks
Drive - 6x4 - XL motor
Steering - Ackerman system - Servo motor
Suspension - Front - Solid axle on leaf springs (this springs are made by Efferman, you can buy this parts on Shapeways)
-Rear - Solid axles on leaf springs and air assist ( system, that minimizes stress, works like tandem-axles, air pistons are connected all together, so if one axle is going up, second axle is going down without pressure change) You can change height of rear axle/rear part of truck, like real one)
2x air connections for trailer
1x connection for trailer engine
TRAILER (its not perfect, I want to use power from truck, so theres no battery box etc)
Suspension like in truck, but no air assist
Detach deck by pins, they are moved by air piston
I will rebuild it, because I want make it better.
any Q just post it, if You want more pics etc i will try to make it for You. I have no instructions, because I like to build like "sit & build" no programs, projects etc, but, i will try to help, if someone want ;)
