  1. There are two wheel but have hidden attribute
  2. Can you please post some images of building front axle (of course if it is allowed before August)? Thanks
  3. Jan, first of all thanks for video. I can see some interesting axle solution in your speed build and it looks very sturdy model. Like the way you made short video starting with parts inventory.
  4. Both left and right side are finished, and simple rear mudguards are in place. Receiver is hidden at the right side just behind stairs. Next challenge is to make steering column and front part...
  5. ...just a small update; battery box and seat are installed inside. Trac and battery box with driver's seat Preparations to install battery box (removed central part of the roof) Notice two blue pins pulled out by one stud to enable spreading front 13 studs liftarms to make easier battery box installation... Battery box is in place... Battery box is switching on and off by this red axle connector connected via axle 5 to battery box switch. Side views of battery box in chassis and driver's seat above battery box ...more updates will follow...
  6. My additional problem is that Fastrac would (if you want it fully RC) need separate motor for pto, separate motor foto 3 point hitch...on single axle...and Shire size of battery box is killing me...and rechargable is out of My (financial) reach. I have been thinking generally about my mocs and have realized that smaller should be pure manually operated and bigger to be optimized like this one. Lego set 8043 is great optimisation IMHO... Your Trac (with rear axle fixed to chassis) could use m-motor, but for everything you need huge compromises...or you can use driving ring to activate PTO together with drive...
  7. I'll try to make blue trailer like I posted earlier if I found enough blue panels here in Croatia... and will probably be equipped with Tumbler tires. Perhaps I'll make something like set 8063
  8. I chose to copy solution very similar to set 9398 just using m-motor for steering. PTO (both front and rear will be driven from l-motors in axles and 3 point hitches will be operated manually since I have to manually attach / detach attachments; I plan to make blue trailer Kind regards Thanks Next thing I plan is to make interior; actually I plan to put steering column and driver's seat on battery box which will be situated in this but hole. Blue 1 x 5 liftarms are where end of battery box will be placed. Whole battery box should be placed "from windshield"
  9. Unfortunately I had an injury to my hand at my work so I'm back to Fastrac project since few days ago and here is what I have managed so far...you can noticed that front and real axle use ball joint from Unimog due to weight (CV joints keep falling out )... ...as you can notice chassis is based on frames; all 5 x 7 frames are black, only H frames 11 x 5 are in light bluish gray color. Axles are not particularly geared down because it is a Fastrac not slowtrac and suspension travel is about stud and a half (topical for small shocks) More complicated part will arrive and i'm still not sure if I'll be able to fit fake engine inside. Enjoy
  10. Yes that could be perfect for more compact model as Defender, despite it is 1:10 model... Regards
  11. Yes it is, under similar I meant by using one section with orange selector...
  12. I would not be surprised if similar solution pops up in upcoming Land Rover Defender set...
  13. Did you try to start it using pf? (Sorry if I missread it somewhere...) What happens when you try (manually) to turn from rear wheels... Did you put wheels on it and try to move it forward / backward? Ignore this post (I'm using mobile phone and now I managed to refresh posts and I see that solved your problem).
  14. At the begining, differential orientation should be like this (I use image posted by @Seasider from his cool project for tc16)
  15. @Ngoc Nguyen I must admit that your red version looks better than yellow original, but it has very desirable yellow parts; so far I see it as good parts pack...
  16. I can not see any images, but when you have wheels turning in opposite direction it is one differential that is placed in wrong direction ...
  17. You're right I was referring to upcoming year 2020. Thanks for correction
  18. Based on parts count I assume it will be similar size like (city) 60181 set
  19. Question is what is in the atmosphere over chicken coop... @sirslayer (Victor knows what I'm writing about)
  20. Agree, that is why there are smaller and more manuverable systems tractors like JCB Fastrac 4000 series or SynTrac...Xerion is simply to big for that (and with width much over 2550mm it is unpractical for public roads, not to mention city roads)
  21. Oh now Houston we have problem...iron volture has landed... Actually I looks really good and smooth using panels ...only thing that is causing my head's scratches is to hollow tail, perhaps out could put one tapperred white panel inside?
