  1. Honestly review is excellent due to great pictures and showing all meaningful features that raptor has, but set is really something to put in vitrines on display. For parts pack is IMHO to expensive.
  2. IMHO this buggy tires are perfect for Tatras. Looking forward
  3. I already saw 5 pictures of your MOC, but I could not find suspension images; I guess the point is to wait for instructions.
  4. @mktechniccreations default one is based on harvesters power; usually first column indicate default (and recommend by manufacturer) tire option(s). It is no problem to help.
  5. Is it possible to see suspension only? It is interesting idea anyway
  6. I agree on that, despite IMHO it looks very good (OK some proportions are off but IMHO it looks nice)
  7. That is very ambitious. I think for the first time in my life I'll copy some of your ideas if it would be better for my Jaguar project (that would be prolonged because now I sleep 3 time per day for 2 hours, play with 6week old kitty several hours a day, feeding her, etc...and she must be kept worm; vet says it is a little princess). My solution was to use one PF m-motor on rear axle for steering and one extra to lift front idlers, but could not synchronize that, so I abandoned idea and since 1:15 model is heavy I have skipped front terrarrac suspension, just on real axle like on 42122 set has at the rear with yellow shocks). I'm honored if I can help and made any kind of contribution to your project. I would keep everything electrical, but it is my point if view mainly based on what I plan for my Jaguar harvester
  8. There is one Moto that everyone should follow Ora et labora et studia Kind regards
  9. Yes you could and my initial plan is with ordinary color, but I start to fantasy things. I suppose red pneumatic cylinders?
  10. 710/60R30 and 750/65R26 are usually on Jaguar harvester (that is why I adapted my MOCs to 1:15 for Unimog and Fastrac and after babysitting 6 week old kitten, I'll continue to work on Syn-Trac 1:15). Just few lines above "LEXION 8000/7000 models at a glance" you can see that on Jeroen's chosen version 8900 there are 1.75m rear tires - perfect for 1:16.5 scale like typical Lego truckswith 19 studs wide chassis. https://www.claas-group.com/press-corporate-communications/press-releases/lexion-8000-and-7000--new-high-performance-combine-harvesters-with-up-to-790-hp/2028102
  11. One container truck idea (I see one of those M.A.N. disposal container trucks with black hydraulic cylinders and dark gray cylinder holders every day several times). About EB community you're probably right Thanks for compliment
  12. Well I have some plans, specially for yellow 5 x 7 frames
  13. Second that But at the end we will welcome color changes in our MOCS
  14. Yes, if they decide to recolor why leaving dark bluish gray la holder?
  15. You are right. Lego commercial department is sneaking on us
  16. Google was always "imbecile" translator because it translates literally... But it's not a bad thing to learn English. @Bricktrain could not explain it better. Enjoy the forum
  17. Yellow frame 7 x 5 on set 42131. https://images.brickset.com/sets/AdditionalImages/42131-1/42131_alt8.jpg Image is to big so I've posted a link
  18. Some of ideas (like axles) that you use on Volvo are interesting to me for one my project - hook loader truck.
  19. I understand, but real one has angled lower part of the blade.
  20. I'm affraid that it is not the case, please look at the black tappered panels to the sides and you'll notice that end line with light bluish gray beams is significantly lower then place where vertical and (visually) horizontal panels are meet.
  21. So far I know axles have hydrostatic drive like here Only terrarrac has something like portal axles hub at the end to transmit power lower since central line of terrarrac system is much lower than on wheels. Then with axles power is transmitted on terrarrac system between wheels (there are actually 8 wheels), but I think your concept is best compromise. I have tried to add suspension, but at end only thing that worked is suspension like on rear axle of set 42122
  22. From my point of view, this tires are best choice for tatras among Lego tires. Very nice modular design. Btw, how is your Volvo FH16 project going on? (I peek from time to time on YouTube videos that you post)
  23. I can only repeat what @KevinMD said; besides that whenever I stuck with development of my current project I start plan to optimize my Unimog 423 and you @Thirdwigg very often gives me right direction, soil think we fulfill main purpose of this forum
  24. If it helps, I also work on terrarrac version, but on Jaguar and my choice is very similar to yours giving 1:15 scale in my case. Generally narrowest terrarrac is 349cm (with 635 mm tracks) and widest is 399cm. Wheelbase is good question, since look for this info few years... standard rear tires 500/85R34 (175cm - perfect for 1:16.5 scale). My suggestion is to use sariels scaler. ...if you want to make 1:16.5 model minimal width od rear axle is 26 studs including tires... Looks very very nice (Nowi know that I'm not that far off rough proportions
  25. Well first thing that looked to me is that real thing is riding on big sprockets (idlers); there are not in air like on Lego version and drive sprocket is at least one stud (if not two) lower and more forward placed than Lego version...but could be my impression
