  1. Me to, despite that Munich is some 6 hours (with car) from me, but I have no time . I have a feeling that LEGO version could be made modular something like original. As time passes by I'm more and more interested in this set, specially when I have found out that there is a pure electric version, so LEGO model is in this aspect very good representation. Regards
  2. @sirslayer it looks like (over)stuffed with e-motors and BB...but it is important that you have fun with it...
  3. So far it does not help ... we are more tired than before and always s"$#...happens
  4. Agree completely Clive Kind regards
  5. I can only say that I look forward to see development of your creation
  6. so far I did not see something a a problem with setup, I was just supposing that solution for rear tandem axles will be like on Arocs. when I finish ongoing 3 projects that I work on I plan 2 additional and one is a truck but I'm not sure if it will be M.A.N. or Volvo, but initial plan was Volvo tow truck 6 x 4 with dark azure color cab. what I know for myself it that I'll try to use 24 tooth differentials because I have some 20 of them (unused)... Regards
  7. when I see your progress my friend it reminds me on Summer 2014 when I spent two sunny days (in summer which was more like like spring than summer) building 42030 set, but original set has not such good steering solution. Keep up with enjoyable work. Kind regards
  8. Did you plan some specific marquee, or it is just generic truck? I suppose that suspension system will have similarities with Arocs, BTW; forgot to mention that I really like 2016- VOLVO TRACKED LOADER
  9. A small glimpse into preparations for Bauma (9 - 14 April 2019) https://www.bauma.de/trade-fair/photos-videos/photo-gallery/index.html#images-5 https://www.bauma.de/trade-fair/photos-videos/photo-gallery/index.html#images-16 ...let's hope that 42100 set will be there
  10. Michael, slack is about 10 degrees (full circle has 360 degrees). I hope this info could help you. Regards
  11. Fastrac is finished and I hope to make good photos at weekend due to sunny days expecting... Syn-trac is slowly progressing (3 way steering works only on non suspended axles ) Regards
  12. I suppose that rear rims are painted white...perhaps this wheel in white can be useful. It look like current Tractor tire would (probably) remain only size, so I have decided to make systems tractors (they have mostly the same wheel sizes) New Holland and CLAAS baller look nice combo
  13. honestly I'm not such big fan of that kind of music, but other video is more interesting. It looks like the off-road Vette is remarkably fast
  14. I understand, at least your engine layout is more realistic; usually that type of machine uses inline engines... Regards
  15. It looks big indeed, but u have one question my friend; shouldn't engine be placed at rear? As I noticed green engine goes very well with yellow boom and black chassis.
  16. Slack is about the same as on Xerion because it is not suspended. I have some more slack because of gears, but have to test it when cab will be finished (one day). The main reason for that kind of axle is because I have 20+ old differentials, so I think of making hook loader truck with those differentials.
  17. For several weeks I can not find 4 additional dark bluish gray triangles type II to make rear axle for Syn-trac, so it will have to wait some time to be done...in the mean time I have worked for several hours on other projects and one if them is JCB Loadall 560-80 in 1:15 scale. Since real machine has (among other) 480/80R26 tires with industrial profile, I have decided to make it with Unimog tires. What I plan to feature in this MOC are following: - all wheel drive - all wheel steering with 3 steering modes - fake 4 cylinder engine - telescopic boom (motorised) ...and some other small features like openable engine hood, rear hook etc... Currently I have made drive + engine and steering system as you can see on posted images any comments are welcome...
  18. It is the same with wheels 32004a and 32004b; they are named upon tires that are used with them...
  19. I see...now you can use universal joint from 42070 set I stead of 3 black gears 12 tooth double bevel at rear axle and redesign your Jeep; it is better late then never
  20. That is logical, but you could also use 5l steering arms from Arocs and make (relatively) narrow axle
