[MOC] Tower Crane

the counter weight should also move back and forth, adds complexity I know -
You would make more money if you sold your items individually. - but that would probably take you years. personally I would do the following... sell off rare parts with common parts in bulk lots.. maybe all the black soft axles together.. sell older sets as complete units.. take the time to photograph and describe these well to increase your chances of a sale then bulk lot the rest, bulk lot instruction books as well put reserves on the rarer stuff but be realistic or they wont sell at all. good luck and save at least one set :)

@gti180 the jet engines are gonna be custom made using Autocad 3d printer technology and will run on a Lego buggy motor, weight is gonna be a crucial factor for the design process O I meant an actual RC jet engine... you got no chance using anything other than gravity for making this fly if you are only going to use Lego motors. (not sure if falling from height counts as flying) -

wonder what the calculations are for something like this, everyone says you need to reduce weight and increase power but reducing weight means the scale has to come down limiting the power you can apply. what if it was scaled up and used a system similar to the first planes to ever fly (wooden frame and fabric skin) if the scale was very large say 1;5 you would then be able to increase the power to weight ten fold by using an RC jet engine or something.
