  1. My collection of classic sets consists of following sets: 851 8860 8880 8448 (if I may include this set as classic because chassis is based on technic bricks)
  2. it is possible to use gears with this tread with this gears (I do not think that gear 8 tooth is usable) https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3648#T=C: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=94925#T=C&C=86 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3649#T=C end this https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=48452cx1#T=C like here http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/iipsa/Industry/Tractors/Case-IH/STX-530/12.jpg but for this tread only sprocket wheels that you have mentioned can be used
  3. I wanted to make something that is part of tractor and not as front weight or similar. My goal is to make something like LEGO Unimog U400. I'm also thinking how to put smaller BB inside cab and mount seats over it, but to make this whole rear section removable by detaching few pins...I'll thin of something...the only issue for this train Battery box is that for direction switching I have to use something like nails or even screwdriver...or do you have some idea?
  4. I have one train BB and another is on the way. On train BB I miss pins for direction changing, but it is lighter and more compact, so I'll se at the end both versions and decide which to use. In next project I'll definitely use Technic version because with 28 studs wheelbase and side chassis section height some 10 studs, there will be place.
  5. To be honest it looks like you have forward / reverse gearbox, but your helicopters are simply great Thanks
  6. Thanks @steph77, I have gearbox design, but gearbox optimisation indicates chassis development and I have this new idea to integrate battery box in cab which could be detached with pins (both cab and better box from cab). Chassis is partly done to be used with this cab; actually I have 1 finished chassis and 2 in development, but at the end I'll decide for combination that is best compromise between stiffness and simplicity.
  7. My problem with Deere is only one tractor tire size from LEGO, so instead of tractor I could make harvester with new xl sprockets and self propelled sprayer (there is 4023 model if I'm not mistaken with 420/85R34 tires - some 1600mm in diameter to fit my Fastrac...)but there is also one special systems tractor in my mind (with finished axles, actually front and rear are completely the same). My suggestion is not just to pay attention to tire overall diameter, but to use radar dish that could pretend to be correct rim size Regards
  8. After 2-3 hours of playing with Cab, I have made something that could be a framework for cab. Framework is not that bad term since there are 4 frames used. Proportions fit to my BW copy of dimensions from brochure, so when I find time I'll finish it (I have needed parts more or less)... Here is how it looks like: Enjoy
  9. If you want some idea for tires, you can look in my old folder http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=497596 ...and perhaps you would like John Deere 7230R (scale 1:17.5 approximately) that I made years ago... http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=535335
  10. Well I have several light bluish gray dishes 10 X 10 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=50990b#T=S&C=86&O={"color":86,"iconly":0}
  11. It could be used on other side, but I still suggest use bigger dish
  12. Starting to work on a Cab to see if battery box could fit there to be more accessible than "below" chassis...
  13. Perhaps this video could help you: https://youtu.be/gmZOQJ1dHRg
  14. I have several modules for gearbox but I want to make it simple and at the same time incorporate in stiff but simple chassis. I have some idea, but have to wait how it would perform About pets, I had always special connection to animals, so I can hardly imagine my wife and myself without pets...
  15. Known feeling when something doesn't work after several hours of attempt, or should I say trial and error... In my case linear actuators work reasonably, but I did not test how much it can raise...since I have version with l motor from Arocs, I assume it can raise like model made by @Technic BOOM
  16. On last image what I can see that shape is very good. You have started the right way using blueprint on which you can replicate 1:1 your solution with LEGO parts About functionality it us true, I have seen few helicopters with great solutions here in TC15, so you can have a peek on them
  17. Perhaps this part could help you with hoses even it is not 90 degree pneumatic connector https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=99021&idColor=7#T=C&C=7
  18. Just some optimisation on one previous chassis version was possible few hours Sunday afternoon because I was babysitting my cat after Thursday's surgery and Terrier has to visit vet on Friday, so I had more busy e d if the week than I expected, and from today job obligations...but on weekends I'll find some time, My mayor problem about gearbox is how to make simple construction with smallest amount of gears used...but I have few ideas about it As alternative I have found in nearby shop one battery box 8 X 4 X 4 so in worst case I could use it in Fastrac and move it to the side...
  19. Construction equipment has highest level of playability, so that is plausible.
  20. I must admit that you made very realistic replica if this awful thing. Very good job
  21. Sorry to be late on party, but I like black even better
  22. Yes, it could be excavator with some 2.5k parts (including XL sprockets) and fully RC
  23. Beast is starting to take form. Just one question of curiosity: would not this hoses be in the way for implements? Regards
