no its much more like the 2015 crawler crane, but twice as expensive

tomorrow

I think this set becomes really awesome when you make it full rc: All functions, actuators, are actually pretty fast now. Also i used two motors for the bottom set of actuators, hard coupled, meaning it's able to lift much more than the default configuration. please let me know if you like my rc mod

Nice how my message automatically translated, I didn't type it in russian but I do speak russian. Anyway, thanks for clarifying!

Isn't the 42216 the skid steer loader from 2021?

I just bought this set as a gift for my little brother.

can you like, unhide them, at least for me only? there was some pretty useful feedback there

best 2025 technic set so far, easily!

In practical play, do you ever spin two twins gear knobs together, simultaneously? I never do that personally. It’s just not very intuitive. Better to have a single knob with a distribution gearbox

Thanks! I suggest joining the unbrickme discord server! We have many members here, technic fans from the 9v era who love discussing old technic models such as the forklift you mentioned :https://discord.com/invite/ZdmXnjtYDy

Definitely! I covered this model in my 10 most functional technic sets video:

im a cessna 172 pilot

This is the front loader of 2009, set number 8265 . I think the 2009 version was a bit superior. It contained a distribution gearbox, which is missing from the new model. It also had motor upgradeability with power functions. Also included normal size linear actuators instead of the small ones, and also because it's not electric, also included an engine. New one is $120 and the 2009 one retailed for $80, which is $120 adjusted for inflation, so they're the same price. New one does have the advantage of that cool new bucket piece though

PF in technic existed 2007-2018. 2019 if you include the january release. That's at least 11 years of PF existing. 2019-2015 it has only been 6 years. I seriously doubt LEGO is already replacing control+/PU with a new electronics system. 4.5v and 9v eras of electronics also lasted in the decade+ range, so I don't think LEGO is replacing powered up already. Main 4 port hub is still being sold at its full price. XL motor was heavily discounted before it got discontinued (still don't understand why) But the integrated hub is only good for cars. If integrated hub actually replaced the main 4 port control+ hub, that means no more RC anything besides cars similar to the porsche

At this price point it needed to be full RC. No RC basic battery box normally means cheaper set I have a question about your last sentence. Did people think L motors were getting discontinued?

Second hand 8043 sealed is over 500 dollars I think. Still totally worth it!

These got released just after I published my video 💀

Thanks!

heavy equipment is the very soul of technic in my opinion

8043 is the opposite of barebone

correct. I haven't made a video in 120 days so LEGO finally revealing these official images is a godsend

cool! I love your cat profile picture

Are those long balck linear actuators the first time we are seeing them in this set or did they appear in sets before?

gona modifi it thern so tgat the fourth function connectds to turntablee instaed

so there's not like, gearbox connecting to the turntable to rotate superstructure, like how we has in crawler crane and bucketwheel excavator?
