    May be shifters and stick connected with gearbox behind the seats (It is connected to engine and situated in the back in real car, right?). The universal joint on the floor connect switching mechanism with shifters...

    Hi Our local online technic community LEGO Technic Russia took part in LEGO Technic Trial challenge this november (08/11/15) For me it was a nice possibility to test my DIY obstacles I did with my father during summer and autumn. I was inspired to build such obstacles seeing this brilliant track by OzBen and Doc_Brown (http://www.eurobrick...78&hl=challenge). The goal was to made it modular and transportable. I used wood, building foam, natural stones and other stuff that is easy to find and work with. At first it was hard to imagine all different ideas. In the end I even build river pass module - based on plastic container that was decorated with foam, stones and painted. Some obsatcles was covered randomly by grippy sealant for better wheel grip. I have only one problem - how to fit all the stuff at two narrow tables...but result was very good! Here is Desert752 As for trial challenge: we had about 15 offroaders. Some of them was based on well known MOCs (like Madoca's pickup) and some was own creations. Contestants was divided by 2 groups 1) Trophy. Mostly civil SUVs with at least one open front differential. Rear can be locked or free. Wheels 62 or 68 mm. 2) Unlimted. Tuned SUVs with wheels up to 83 mm. No differentials and wheel gear reductors possible. The idea was that trophy car had better mobility and steering,and Unlimited was able to crawl everywhere. But locked rear diff at first group makes them crawl good as Unlimited trucks. So track times was equal. We measured track time and added extra time for hitting flags or using help of hand/wrecker. Desert752's blue Toyota 6x6 Wrecker worked there as TOW service) In the end we saw that both classes was able to compete each other. First role played driving skills and driving accuracy. Glad to saw there AFOLs from different cities of Russia and even from Belarus. As for me, I have to drive with all that stuff in my car 1300 km one way. We had a nice time there. Thanks for LEGO Group for given prizes. In the end, All phots here http://bricksafe.com/pages/rm8/trial-challenge-megabricks I have a short long video of that meeting.

    Are you sure you build it right? I have that chassis on my shelve. Never meet that problem. 1.Looks like your front wheels touch something on the frame... 2.May be steering overload IR receiver...Do you use V2 IR receiver? Try with 1 L motor connected to receiver (instead 2)

    Looks like you are late 2 years) Nice set that you can play on your working place while small pauses This set is very cool, especially when you can: 42001 chassis + imagination = http://www.bricksafe...es/rm8/TLC_FJ40

    Tires are so much weared with drifitng, so there is no clearance left Now he drives slowly, as you see in the video Nice model Flswgd. I am glad that someone in this world build simple cars for "datcha and rassada", something different than Ferrari and Lambos.. :thumbup:

    Pat-Ard, what is the cheapest way to build such walls: technic panels or bricks?
  22. rm8
    Very nice. i will use you ideas fo sure)

    Thank you for feedback. I am relly happy that viewers feel the atmosphere that I wanted to share. :sweet: TLC 80 seems to rounded for me to build it in Bricks. + I dont fall in love with it yet to build it) I wil do instructions for pickup and troop carrier later, as I have free time. All 4 models are similar, but long version have small differences at rear axle. As for front axle - it was improved for better articulation and little bit higher clearance. Long versions also have a really useful imrovement: Battery block/LiPo is fully hidden under front seats. It makes hard (but possible) to change batteries and connect the wire. But in the same time weight distributution is better with lower center of gravity, and free pickup bed / troppy baggage compartment.

    Very well detailed Truck! Light body should work fine. Do you plan instruction? It should stand together with Madoka's Tatra. Both are the flagships among Trial Trucks in such scale
