Could you make instruction of this masterpiece - sequential gearbox?:)

UniMog gang detected;)

Nice design and technique:)

Very good performance ! Do you have video from lowlug trial?

The 14 th of february was the best day for that:))) What is the reaction of special person?

I dont see any 8051 at you shelf! Why?

Very functional: the hood and the trunk.... Really cool shooting brake with nice shapes;) and I also see cargo rails on the roof!:)

Dodge power wagon!?

Losi micro crawler tires? Also good choice!

Effe is right The closest are Dirt Grabber 1,55. They are about 74-76 mm D. But they are really cool;)

Congratulations! You opened outdoor LEGO:) New truck, new music, new test environment! Nice video, but next time show us harder offroad test track;) we like rolling over roof:)))) Thank you for video. Model is really powerful and stable despite many additional functions...

Big offroad wheels, rear wheel drive, suspension... I think it will be offroad truck or buggy. Little chance that it will be another pickup, but more sporty than main pickup, like baja trophy truck. What else you can do with these parts?

Cv slides at 8110, because of axle geometry. I even dont need to test it (my 8110 is on the shelf near me) because Rotating point is at the ball joint. So if it is not multilnk with parallel links, it is imposible to connect axle with chassis without sliding joints.

To say the truth - that is again Hamster's creation. (He use Pavel's muscle power, but tssss....thats a secret:))))

Finally, your best use of buggy motor power:)

Should I choose polished plastic for functional parts like cv joints, steering arms, or it does not play role (from the point of friction)? Or grainy is functionally the same? to narrow so it needs some tweaking What do you mean narrow? Can I buy it, or it is raw?

All this contestants are spreaded from Moscow to Vladivostok. Thats about 10000 km between them. Don think they wanna meet in together place for race:)

Thank you. Cant wait to order and make review of "custom parts by Effe" :)

Dont know the strength of plastic they use, but I thing ball for joint for arm is the weakest point of this cool part. May be is better to make pin hole or axle hole for original LEGO axle/pin ball joint? And axle hole for steering arm should can be placed higher. This is just my thoughts.. Effe, could you make small racing wheel (43 mm) with "normal" universal car design for sportcars, offroaders and trucks (not for front loader) and "right offset" for 6 pinhole and axle mounting. Thanks. Guys, did someone received something except wheel covers? I want to know rigidity of material. Shipping to Russia is slow and expensive, so I want to make big order, but dont know how useful this first versions of parts, especilall functionally (not decorative).

Hi, I organized contest "Trophy 4x4" at our russian language Technic community (vk.com/technic_club). It is at final voting stage. Dont wanna translate all the rules, but main rules are below: Contestants shoul build technic offroader. No cosmic design. Common rules: - AWD - body whidth - 15-17 studs - axle width between rims - 14-16 studs - Wheels can be from 62 to 83. two main discpilines: 1) Standart. You should build your car using reference chassis 4x4, instructiuon is available. Changes of this chassis should be minimal. But you can adjust wheelbase and middle part. Pf is not mandatory, but you should leave free place for it. Mainly design contest. 2) PRO You can build any chassis you want 4x4 or 6x6. PF and demo video is mandatory. For advanced builders who dont want to be limited by simple refence chassis. Author name should be a secret till the end of contest. Authors age is frrm 12 to 30. So dont be too critical:) Here I will post some photos of finalists and info about models. Links to full gallery will be below. You will not find any unique and new ideas below, cause main idea of contest was to create offroaders in similar scale and with real-look design (no copy).

May be 3 studs to make steerable live axles using this. I should think and try to build somethng...

It is not Lego collection, it's Madoca! :) I am also big fan of his creations

Guys, who already got something from shapeways: whats the quality of plastic? How stromg and fxexible is it? Is it comparable with LEGO ABS ?
