Cool, speechless... The lateral forces on the wheels will be strong I'm afraid. -

Brilliant, I learned something new: diagonal AWD. Is such a drive train used in real world cars? Is this patented? The video proofs that it works really well! I only found the Diagonal Spin Test when searching for more information about this subject..

Your Best Technic Bargains
GerritvdG replied to Kumbbl's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
These are my bargains: 42043 Arocs for € 150, incomplete, ordered the missing pieces on bricklink € 5 8043 Excavator for €120, complete, some stickers missing. I bought it from a guy who likes to make incomplete sets complete and then sells them. 42105 Catamaran for € 15 (I like sailing so this one I had to have) 42110 Defender for € 80 including box and spares, as new These supercars I bought for my brothers in law: 42115 Sian for € 200 including box, inner boxes and spares 42083 Chiron for € 210 including box, inner boxes and spares I really like to hunt for bargains and there is really a lot for sale, often people build a set one time and don't know what todo with it afterwards. -

Cool, sounds like a challenging contest, no idea what to build, but inspiration will hopefully come along the way.. -
[WIP] Unimog 406 "big red"
GerritvdG replied to GerritvdG's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Project update, first version of the bodywork and axles finished: added LBG bed (not enough red pieces, also tried a black one, but I didn't like it) added mudguards and front bumper added pendular front axle, steered and driven, based on the 42082 axle (thus with reversed Ackermann geometry) simple driven fixed axle at the back Considerations: I wonder if the proportions are alright, doubt to rise the roof of the cabin with one stud. Is it recognizable enough? The axles could be more realistic, alternatively I could create rigid portal axles with a torsion bar and use Lego axles as shock absorber... Next is: HOG-steering Create the powertrain and a straight-six fake engine Detail of the pendular front axle, the gray axle is the pivot point. -

Maybe implement this by adding a weight limit proven by a photo with a kitchen scale.. -
Thanks for sharing and describing the design proces Viktor. Very valuable for me and a nice read!

Rebel's Lego Room
GerritvdG replied to Rebel_Lego's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Well done @Rebel_Lego, you seem to easily switch from system to technic and combine both, nice! Wonder how much time these projects took.
