I finally put chainsaw from the set to good use. Original 42139 and my modded variant. Closer look at modified one, with shoerened by one axle body. Cargo bed is simple one, without tipping, as can be seen on regular atv's Belly shot - aside one axle, same as original model. Will make and post LDD later.

I have feelings after build and tests that new one runs slightly smoother then old ones, and that they slightly soft on beginning of compression, while keeping overall same force... pics from mine instructions)- 5,506 replies

Today got mine 42139 and was surprised... 6,5 l soft shock absorbers have unusual spring, with drastically increased amounts of coils. Softness is the same to old ones. Left one - old from 42094, right - new from 42139....- 5,506 replies

Yea, i tried to find any quick fix for springs, but without reworking whole model, i didnt found any... Thus i just left model only with two springs only on middle axle. First and last axle are free switning. As it reduces some realism in model, it stresses MUCH less on axle, and allow steering to work much more smooth.

Love this set. Currently built it from my spare parts. Its really cool and very playable set. Nearly perfect one, but still have few draws... And major one - all springs always compressed around 1/4 of their leingh when vehicle levelled. It puts excessive frriction on steering and slightly bends (in parts tolerance spaces) rear axles. I removed 4 shocks, it plays nearly the same buth without listed unwanted effects. Minor one - steering lock is rather small, I will try to modofy it. Otherwise - i in love with that atv... and especially tiny chainsaw. Cant wait to pick set from the store.

Will check. Maybe try to do my onw takes on such idea... Sorry to ask but, can you provide dimersions of your engine bays and engine mounting points? Thinking to them interchangible...

42139 - All-terrain Vehicle
Arioh replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
MIne attempt of reverse engeneering based on initial leaked pics and recent official art... Awful try, but some things can be learned... https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6wdkeb9q0zeocx/42139.lxf?dl=0 some stuff can be just my guess... -
42139 - All-terrain Vehicle
Arioh replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I built that chainsaw in mid of december, and i would say, despite it being primitive, its highly additctive and fun thing. Chain rotates easily and good. And i didnt know how to say correctly - its oddly satisfying. With few additions to cover emptyness inside... -
42132 may be one of smallest sets of first wave of 2022, but still, its awesome tiny set. I created replacement engine for its B model, which just drops in on default attachement points without any alterings of the frame. I even tried to make it at least detailed... Empty frame, and new and old engine side-by-side New Engine on its place. LDD model of said engine - https://www.dropbox.com/s/wlkeqmghsg38m1y/42132 B alt engine.lxf?dl=0

42132 - Chopper
Arioh replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
LOVE this little set. Definitely getting two of them, like i did in end of 2019 with Mini Xerion... And that mystery grey part under the engins is this one - It used to provide attachment point for exchaut pipe. -
42110 - Land Rover Defender
Arioh replied to 1gor's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I found it enjoyable and good. (Didnt have bugatti). Cant say that bouild is hard (first time build it while being very drunk, and was build in morrored state to have it in RHD), just follow instruction carefully, thats all. -
After playing hundreds of hours in Cyberpunk 2077, i decided to try my awful skills in building motorbike, or more exactly build something in style of Yaiba Kusanagi. Current very early and very rough draft, to capture overall shape and size With more or less working front fork with weird geometry, which barely allow any steering And rear suspension arm with equally weird placement of drivetrain Planning to squeeze in fake engine, and unsyncronised gearbox (like in early autochassis), just to build somthing different then regular clutch gearbox... Not sure, if i manage to finish it properly, or make bike without color vomit panels, but definitely it will be great experience.

I tried double arm design - it tends to struck more agaisnt connector #4 on the roof, than one armed one. -

Arioh replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
And no words about tiny "saver"-style spare wheel I already tried original big headlights too. its looks equally good for me as small ones. And i guess i found why headlights so pushed out on official model (aside of impossibility to recreate proper look of modern ones...) - Nod to early Jeep CJ -
42122 Jeep Wrangler
Arioh replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Just built it from my spare parts (sorry for color vomit style...) And despite it being very simple model, its rather enjoyable to play with. After some testing, i found that grey soft shock absorbers fits model much better than hard ones. Also, managed to modify winch, to give it very simple ratchet to prevent unwinding under stress. -

42116 Skid Steer Loader
Arioh replied to JintaiZ's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Rebuilded. I ddint have 1L worm gear, so put old 2L worm gear mesehed with 24z gear. It has just two functions, as been noted before - raising/lowering bucket, and tipping it. Overall - its nice and very strudy model, with decent gear count (5) for its size. Still nothing could beat 42102 in terms of mini-set awesomeness for me. -

Arioh replied to JintaiZ's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
It maybe odd, but it perfectly working. Using Jurss's mockup, i finished it. Also some color fixes included. https://www.dropbox.com/s/l16667wssdae8hh/42116.lxf?dl=0 And for 6L beam under the seat, my guess that it could have 2L beam to limit bucket arm lowering below ground.
