  1. @Jurss Steering wheel is not working - it's attached with blue pin-axle.
  2. 42098 is very limited on size to fit the price and parts count. building in 11 stud high is looking like https://images.app.goo.gl/W4PZ49rapsbVGAxS8 14 stud maximum is on
  3. @Jim May be you can increase box height a little bit: 42098 is not only lower deck, but also a higher deck that can store higher cars than 11 stud. And also add 49,5 wheels ONLY for SUVs of the same scale, 37 mm wheels and some old wheels of the same scale from 37 to 43 wheels. But only realistic (non-balloon) types. I can help with wheel tyoes and links. This will give a lot wider models varierty among contestants. I am sure contest will be more popular than previous - we have a lot of people willing to take part from our rus community.
  4. Hello! today my gest is russian AFOL - Konstantin @GooberReboot . He is like every other afol met lego as kid, and then came back to LEGO as adult. Today he visited me during his work trip, and take his new model with him: Toyota Trophy Truck based on FJ45 and inspired by @Nefarious Kustoms 2019 crazy custom model. This is very fast and powerful model that anc be converted to Offroad crawler just changing wheel hubs to new planetary hubs from LEGO 42099 propulsion: 2x Buggy motor steering: servo motor radio control: RC Brick (custom RC-grade remote adapter for LEGO) with FLY SKY Radio control battery: noname 3S Lipo AWD, independent suspension positive caster angle
  5. Aweome mods, battery under the bonnet?! Thank you for sharing.
  6. Thanks for MOD. With 1 Buwizz it should be fine. I would like to see video)
  7. This is alternate model of LEGO Technic set 42106 - Hoonitruck, pickup truck inspired by Ken Block's custom truck. Model use only pieces from set 42106 Stunt Truck and Bike show released 1h 2020. Model has openable rear gate, doors, steering system with a knob behind the cab. You can remove duck tail, some front stufff like bash-bar and tow ring, change rear wheels to narrow ones and get street-legal custom pickup. 3D model or/and full instruction are on my plans list.

  8. For this price it can be a two very well detailed cars in the scale of 42093 or little bit larger (for better detalization) with 43 or 49 mm wheels. If not, this can be still detailed car (1 pcs) with 56 mm sport or 62 mm truck tires. Larger mean very poor detailed. I like both variants.
  9. Glad you are still active with this 8081 wave! I will be happy to join you soon, my first SUV version need only dashboard to finish)
  10. was it designed when first FnF was released?
  11. that old sets was from another era, where models was not strong as today. there was no closed differential frames in that models, sooner brick built frame will be broken that gears Still don't see the reason of moving from old differential to new version. Old still good for mechanical models, new for RC
  12. New differential is not very good for mechnical "hand rolling" models, because of 28:12 gearing. In some situations transmission can be stressed or damaged.
  13. I think they prepare for toyfair long before start. So this can be model verison of 2 months before today, despite designers have final model.
  14. This is not final model and design. Usually they show preliminary sets at this Toyfair
  15. Good work! do you have a video of train? By the way, we have similar contest in our RLOC LTR. Some models have gears instead of train wheels - yeah, not every technic fan have train parts) All contestant photos https://vk.com/topic-40661157_39227788
  16. BrickGarage LEGO room tour ? It's in russian, but you can try watch at browser with susbtitiles autotranalsted on the fly to any language!
  17. Buwizz is a good. But be carefull on LDCRS mode) If you did not bought Buwizz yet, you can use my affilated link https://buwizz.com?ref=45
  18. At RacingBrick channel I saw that android verison work well with PU L motor as servo. Playing with 42109 I can't make steering work right - no return to center. Is it it the problem of iOS version?
  19. Balazs, thank you for review. Dissapointed again. But I have another question. In the end you tested BC app with gamepad. I also have Gamepad and last BC app on iOs. Playing with 42109 I can't make steering work right - no return to center. Is it it the problem of iOS version?
  20. yes, but only one side, if you use it in the rectangular frame. The same as with old version
  21. That's what I like. Your model is the most conservative redeisgn among all others. So, how many projects we have now except your and @HorcikDesigns, @johnnym, @sirslayer?
