Finally I found the time and motivation to continue the work on my Volvo FH16 6x4. Earlier I got the 2 speed transmission to work by a M motor, raise and lower the rear axle by a M motor, steering by a servo motor and drive back and forward by a L motor. The last few day I got the fifth wheel to work by a M motor and I also fitted the fake inline 6 cylinder motor. I have finally began to work on the cosmetics, beginning with the fenders. Yesterday I changed fuel tank design, I started on the cabine where the rough outline and design is done. I have also chosen that I am using the CADA battery, as it is 2.4 Ghz, have 4 channels and has a controller that I can build on. This battery box have been mounted and all the wires have been routed in a clean and controlled way, with bricks on key places to prevent the wires to go into all the gears. Now all that's missing is the doors, interiors, the front grill and some minor details. Note about the colours, they shall all be coordinated when I am done, some bricks are not the right colour. I think that the black cabine will make many of the details blend into the cabine, hence I am thinking of making it white or red. What do you think, shall I go with black, white or red cabine? Enjoy the pictures.

[MOC] Rocky 42099 B model
Kio Liex replied to Didumos69's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Great alternative model, I know my son would love to build this. He is already complaining about the lack of a B-model from LEGO. Will you be sharing you digital build or can we be so lucky that you are making instructions? -
I have no idea how to describe what I want to say. WOW, amazing is just not enough. I can belive that you have fitted all that into such a small MOC. GREAT JOB. Also amazing that you have build four models this year, and the quality is amazing on all of them. Please note I still wait on the John Deere version of the tractors.

Love it already. How many hours do you use a week on building LEGO? -
WOW... No wonder that the buggy motors are hard to find/expencive... Great build. How well can the LEGO frame withstand all the beating?

@I_Igor Thanks, I have also made a lot of tire calculations for John Deere tractors myself (I am also planing to build one or two). When I look into my calculations I have note that the 6110R-6130R series can also have 520/70 R38, making it scale 16.1. What you are referring to is the max tire size. Therefore I would still like to know what scale that was aimed for on the hole tractor. We always have to do some compromises when building in LEGO, I aim to build within +/-0.5 scale of my desired scale. Looking at my Volvo L120H it has the following overall scale 1:17 but measuring the different places it isn't perfect. Height 3380 / 200mm = 16.9Chassis width 2670 / 152mm = 17.6Wheel width 2670 / 172mm = 15.5 Wheel base 3200 / 184mm = 17.4Bucket width 3000 / 183mm = 16.4Wheel diameter 750/65 R25 = 1610 / 94.3 = 17.1 Sorry for all this scale talk I just really like this topic.

Sound great, we will be looking forward to the instructions. What scale have you build it to?
