  1. With shoe brush on his helmet
  2. When I was a kid thete was a story about turtle and rabbit; yeah until I watched Bugs bunny...
  3. Honestly it looks super smooth and very clean build...but I follow more when you decide to build something else than busses.
  4. Usually the have cooperated (in the past). All Unimogs have portal axles, only there are two types inplement carriers called UGE that have link suspension like Lego made on Zetros only with portal axles (have 3 digits in model designation e.g. U530) and what they often call UGH that actually has axles exactly like 8110 set. The later has 4 digits in model designation like U5023. Unimog UGE Unimog UGH
  5. I had similar experience...just interrsting is that Medium motors ftom 8297 set and from 8110 have no wire problems, but from 42030 set all motors have it. Also XL motors from 2017 have wire issue, that I hope to solve today (if nothing unplanned happens). It could be production year (bad matherial from some cooperant) or place where it was manufactured. Because wire failures, I had to damage my XL motors housings and now I can not integrate them in model that I work on for few years...
  6. When I recovered from dizziness caused by intro in uploaded video; I must admit your model and yellow cabover 8 x 8 are my favorite looking; so smooth, somple and then again trial trucks.
  7. Hm, then I look mostly on older models since I use PF elements...
  8. That is theme specially for @Maaboo the Witch; see the broom in natural habitat in left from towerin picture of the box.
  9. Here; Since @M_longer usually makes instructions for models by @eric trax and they made B models at the same time and extremelly similar...
  10. One of my PF XL motors and one of my PF remote control unit has turned yellow, but they work, or in case of XL I had to open it and shorten wires and then solder tnem back (but motor looks like it survived nuclear desaster. Interesting is that they belong to 42030 set... On Large motor from that set, wire isolation has cracked, so yesterday I had to clean wires and use oldfashioned method with isolations tape to make it work; also had to find time to open and to shorten wires on medium motor and PF servo from same set doesn't give signs of life, so there is some work to do...
  11. I saw it few hours ago (because I peek from time to time to see when Dominator will be released) and I must say that this tire/rim combination is ideal for Unimogs (because of portal axles) but also some machinery-like look would be nice (like only with 6 pinholes like on Harley...). I hope that you made portal axles like @M_longer Looks really nice; like a bit smaller brother to U400 by TLC and a bigger brother to one that @MajklSpajkl made few years ago... If @grohl could influence TLC to make 87.9 tractor tires, then I'll buy that set...
  12. Yes, not bad idea after all; this I suppose is rear axle.. ...or you have steering with links, so you attach link on red ball joint...
  13. I was hoping that something was left for poryal axles...
  14. Did you (and @eric trax) have any gear leftover when building alternative Unimogs?
  15. That one looks better than both Unimog U400 and G wagon, tires have perfect pattern for Unimog...today I was looking at 42178 set and my wife said that Unimog would look better in that color than in ordinary orange.
  16. That is what I needed @LvdH. Can you put it over 5 x 7 frame wuth daytona dufferential to see if it fits inside opening on wider side and move differential inside arm as much as it goes (not to rubb on it). Thanks
  17. Another thing that could be usefull is 36 tooth gear that fits this differential:
  18. And I thought you wanted to try with new hub...
  19. Perhaps you turned that way...
  20. I know; that is why my Fastrac 4220 has coupled XL motors with 28 to 20 upgear, thdn gray differential and reduction hubs...and 156Ncm on axle...with 107mn Xerion tires... I saw several times truck trials and very often I look video by Pavel with comparison with Zetros
  21. As I can see, you have made upgear 24 to 12 and downgear 8 to 56 giving final torque at the shaft 7 / 2 × (14.5 x 2). In brackets are mentioned two XL motors and their torque. Kind regards ...alltogether some 101 Ncm torque...
  22. It looks nice and simple trial truck; question - is it possible to put XL motors closer so you can use less gears? (Using 40 tooth gears instead of 24 would not help...)
  23. It is like this for months...and not only for JCB Excavator...
  24. https://www.freakware.de/en/p/jcb-220x-lc-2924-pcs-c61504w-a176561.htm?wgruppe=20257
  25. No problem Steph; still think how to use uppercarrige from you excavator on my (desired) project - wheeled excavaror... Kind regards
