  1. I do not care who's "kitchen" it is, but I was writing about earlier review.... Usually I wait for reviews for 1h flagship set (if I may call Porsche this way) until early spring, but it certainly won't last that longer...if there will be review before Nuremberg toy Fair I could plan which set to buy and which not since I'm mostly buying sets for parts Hope that longer explanation answers what I meant...
  2. From top view (on images available so far) I can not se any kind of 2 stage gearbox ?
  3. It is very familiar to me, one of place that convinced to buy Horten Ho229 model (I hope it is not to much offtopic)
  4. Good thing is that it has flat 6 cylinder engine, so you can make it small scale. Bodywork is more suited to LEGO parts that Porsche, so it could be great MOC
  5. Here you can find some inspiration (it does not have to be Blohm and Voss ) https://www.militaryfactory.com/aircraft/ww2-german-military-aircraft.asp (There are not only German but also other Country aircrafts...)
  6. Since I like classic planes, I'm sure it will be great. For 6 cylinder engine you could make radial engine
  7. what I see looks very good, despite not my color choice Engine size is something that caused me a headache because it hat to bi bigger than your and in that case fuselage would not be so smooth. Honestly I do not know when I'll be able to make it since there are not all light bluish dray panels available and I need whole room for it which I do not have, so only on summer time (outside in garden) there is a time and a place to build it (in the sun). there are some other let's say war-birds that I'm interested in like Focke Wulf FW189...but all they have V12 piston engines; in this case to have engine like Mack anthem is really wired like when airplane is upside down - it looses all pistons currently I work on much smaller (machinery) models (in shire size, not necessary scale), but this models are nothing in common with this content; perhaps JCB fastrac can be used to pull airplanes
  8. Now this is what I mean is proper propeller plane, with smooth lines, elegant, fast and with characteristic twin booms I'll certainly follow this development. It is very pleasant surprise since I have planned to build it with V12 engine , but have not enough parts for fuselage in light bluish gray
  9. How to make telescopic boom without rack? The rest is good based on parts available Anyway it is like bigger brother for your smaller yellow telehandler
  10. Funny little desk airplane, real surprise. I really did not expect such thing, but it is cute
  11. Nice model, perhaps you can use gear rack to make telescopic boom (I do not see it in video due to small display size on my phone); you have 3 way steering idea from original set that is adaptable for your C model and you have appropriate colors available...
  12. Something like this? http://www.gradall.com/products/wheeled.php
  13. This one would be very nice at this scale Perhaps I'll buy this set and use Blue or dark azure to make it in 1:15 scale (43.2 tires are great to represent tires with 650mm overall diameter which are mostly used on cars)
  14. This parts are not available in dark blue https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=40490&idColor=1#T=C&C=1 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=32013&idColor=5#T=C&C=5
  15. You are right, I have misread letter B; I think it is possible, I'll check it asap...
  16. No problem for me, but now TLC will not like me because I have Banish one potential customer... We need parts list to be sure, but small mudguards put me in sceptical group ?
  17. Real Porsche has McPherson like suspension at the front, but TLC for not have small enough shock absorber that allows rotation to be fitted in such scale (that is my thought about front suspension)
  18. It is 1:15, 68.8 tires have tire 62.4 inside to gain overall diameter 71mm to represent tire 386/65R22.5 (overall diameter 1066mm) in 1:15 scale. I can not make it more narrow if I will stiffness in axles. When I put gear and rack steering in steers very smooth and it is relatively light model despite detailed cab. On Fastrac there will be same type of steering (made it last weekend but due to empty battery could not take photos...) because Xerion type of steering is to wobbly on suspended axles and compressed suspension results in unplanned steering...so 3 wat steering will be in telehandler and on backhoe (if I'll manage to buy additional parts). Two main functions (front and rear PTO) work simple and efficient
