Trophy truck "Sunset"
rm8 replied to rm8's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Using 2 buggy motors with 2 receivers and 2 batteries give a small boost. But even better to use RC unit with two buggy motors. -
[MOC] [WIP] Toyota 4Runner
rm8 replied to Canmorite's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
TS, If you want to make it RC, you should build it with portal hubs, because cv joints and differential gears could not handle big torque needed to move this heavy beast with such large tires.- 26 replies

[HELP] Buggy Motor Stalling
rm8 replied to NTH7's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hi What is the wheel size, what is the gear reduction and which output you use? For drift you should use small size wheels about 43 mm. Using larger wheels and gearing up will stress the motor. High pitched noise is enablng overload protection. -
[MOC] [WIP] Toyota 4Runner
rm8 replied to Canmorite's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Wow! Awesome start! As a real Toyota and Lego fan, looking forward to your MOC. My advise: build modular. Chassis with detachable gearbox/transfer box as module save your nerves We also have 2000 4Runner in our family and love it! P.s. My Yota is here http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=63126&hl=prado- 26 replies

Play too much gta V:) !!!!! All WTF's that designers should correct before final release of set: Red 3l pins with bushes should be hidden, no bushes outside Rear arch - 1 L hole: 2L beam shoud e replaced to 3L beam Front fender is ugly with beam holes Front grill should be brutal, may be with grill tiles. But not striped red/gray. This part of pickup should be the important p design and it introduces the whole truck! Front lights - replace to 2x2 round tiles to. Exhaust pipes holders are ugly Door and all around it....

Same floor, same carpet with obstacles, same quality! Perfect model! It's signature of Madoca. -
Crowkiller's Muscle Car
rm8 replied to Kronos's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Right decision about HOG! This is a realistic model first, and then a toy. But I am not sure that you will play it:) Nice muscle, Paul. I see you developed your "monster muscle" from small to big scale:) -
Looking at the bad picture, I see that bonnet is like in 9395 made by big fairing panels 5x11. Doors like in 8265b model (or 41999 but reversed fairing) : curved 3x11 + big long fairing panel 3x11. Base is long. Short cab. Lights on the roof. Independent suspension 4wd with 3 differentials Front hog steering V6 or v8 under the bonnet Openable bonnet, doors, tilting bed Winch Hope they add some new functions , like low gear or 2wd/4wd selector, cause all functions are old and simple. (even 8297 has adjustable suspension and doors with absorbers). But its very playable in my eyes. Since its a pickup, solid rear axle is better. May be this truck is something like baja trophy truck. Anyways, I want to pimp it. P.s. 2 days to Nuremberg Toy Fair 2014:)
