Panel work is really good -
Perhaps you could use linear actuators (they are more smooth when operating) instead of pneumatics on undercarriage (but fir this you would need additional axle to go to undercarriage...). You'll see what is the best. If you managed to make it work it would be better than original tracked loader / excavator...now when I see original I must admit that it is great MOC (despite still in development)

Beamless Chassis Design?
1gor replied to SNIPE's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I suppose you mean "Technic brick with holes" under term "old beams" like this https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3703#T=C -
Beamless Chassis Design?
1gor replied to SNIPE's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Simply NO, because with beams (and specially frames 5 X 7 and 5 X 11) construction is much sturdier. Connectors are helpful but not base for building. Allow me to mention just one example - try to make LEGO Unimog U400 axles with beams and not frames I can only repeat @Bublehead and write once more @Erik Leppen +1 -

I know that sometimes LEGO original parts are not the best for some of us (spoiled) users, but you also know what was my experience with non LEGO portal axle hub... -

Lancia Delta Integrale
1gor replied to Porsche96's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Yes it virtually sticks to the road, but it is very sensitive to dust, small stones, moisture...a few mph to much and you end in the field (or as here in Croatia we said in the corn ), so when I had a chance for a few minute I was like a grandpa, even by using sequential shifter I was gentle... But I like old-timers better, they have soul...but that is another story, let's stick to topic -

Onboard always looks faster, just remember how Hollywood makes car chases scene's (especially in 60s a d 70s) -

It looks that we have more and more cute small mocs. Years ago one my friend had homologated rally version with 350bhp, 6 calliper brakes, slick tires...but this one is great indoor version. Very nice -

Correct me if I'm wrong, but from that image it looks like you use axle and not pin...and on image that I commented you use pin... -

Perhaps you can use here this one https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=32348&idColor=7#T=S&C=7&O={"color":7,"iconly":0} instead of that one https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=6629&idColor=11#T=S&C=11&O={"color":11,"iconly":0} connected with this: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=18651&idColor=11#T=S&C=11&O={"color":11,"iconly":0} @Jim, I apologize for quoting picture, but I've just wanted to make my suggestion more understandable... -

That crossed my mind... They are perfect for 1:16 scale (22.5” time has 585-590mm diameter...) -

I have one question, since you mostly build trucks...can this tire / rim combo be represented by LEGO 62.4 tire, or is it to obvious that LEGO tire has not enough low profile (I have used smaller image of Scania V8 due to EB posting image rules) Thanks -

That sounds good. You were right; second front axle is a bit distanced from first front axle -

That is similar kind for my idea for outriggers for my Unimog U4023 with crane. Question is just does it take to much space and will it be disproportional is will it fit scale? -

I agree that stability is very important. IMHO it looks like front axles are to much separated, but it drives relatively smooth.
