  1. Nice airplane, but very red ;-) Good job on all the functions, and it looks quite ok. I think the ruther should be inside the tail, not sticking out? Is it build after any real plane?
  2. Nice video! Im still on the fence on buying this set. I like airplanes, but im not sure if the medium blue is something i want/need. What other sets have this color? And the wings just seem to simple/short. A few parts extra and they would have been much better looking.
  3. Fantastic mechanics. It has a bit of a "useless machine" vibe to it, really creative.
  4. Great alternative Grohl. Good use of the available parts.
  5. That is really cool. Love the idea. I think you need to brace the pen better, or apply some down pressure. It would make the drawing a bit better.
  6. Great build and alternative! C-models bring a lot of creativity to the table. Nice job on having all those functions. 42043 isnt the best set for having a good looking alternative, but I think you managed it quiet well. It has a bit of an unfinished paintjob.
  7. Same problem: page doesn't load when going to next or previous page. Win 7 and Chrome browser
  8. Looking very interesting. In the last picture, which way does the machine drive? and what is that support on the far right?
  9. I think it's gorgeous. Well done build and modelling in this scale. Would love to build it myself.
  10. Nice collection you have there. 31039 is still on my wanted list, but since i collect technic, it's still on the list. Is it worth it? I like planes too, i would leave it like this ;-)
  11. Fantastic build. Great design. It makes it very life-like. I see lots of inspired elements ;-)
  12. How much force did you need to get the steering in the H-frame? Other than that, awesome looking car. Great job.
  13. Love what you are building here. So much functions in a tiny space. Even a gearbox, great! The engine looks nice too, as does the panel placement. Are you building to scale, or a blueprint, or just on the go?
  14. I would like to know this as well, does such thing exist?
  15. I know why my setup didnt shift properly, it was actually not enough resistance on the output axle. Strange, but so be it.
  16. Thank you, puzzled me. Yes, I like to build a car with a decent shifting mechanism, and this looks very promising :-)
  17. Can't figure out how you connected the tooth as well as the rod to the actual shifting paddle. Care to explain?
  18. I noticed the two outer yellow gearknobs, should be hold back by the red changeover catch while shifting. they should be in a 45 degree position to make a proper shift. They are not always hold back, but slip along the changeover catch, not creating enough movement to gear up or down. somehow they are not always returned to a 45 degree position after a shift... hope i am clear enough?
  19. So, what do you do while watching Le Mans 24 hours? You start building some racing stuff. I downloaded the porsche instructions and build the gearswitch part at the steering wheel. I can't get it to work for the life of me. Can someone confirm that the axle coming out underneath should rotate 90 degrees with each gearswitch? I tried some adjustments mentioned in the first post, but dont know what goes wrong. It just doesnt switch the middleaxle correct.
  20. Thanks for a great review. Pointing to the flaws in the design really made up my mind I'm not going to get it now, only if it will drop in price. (wont expect that). I really like the looks of this model, but the price is so high. And the most important thing, there is just nothing new in the technic department. A must for a ultimate technic car. Im actually amazed by myself i can say this. Im out.
  21. Nice color combo, and great looking. Love the experimental suspension
  22. At least they look somewhat finished. Can't say that to 75% of my MOC's, that I usually break down...
  23. Great spotting. The video says its preliminary packaging design: The part-count is incorrect The book is repeating pages It's also clear that you need a lot of building steps for this set, which are clearly not present in the book in the video.
  24. Man this set looks great. I think orange is a great choice. A bit expensive though. Some questions about the new wheelhub: - Can it be driven? - Is it more at the center of the wheel? Building this will be a real pleasure. Looking forward to it.
