    lol you're so right :P that happens when you build stuff on the computer and not phisically

    PAJERO UPDATE: I'm building the chassis... i got that kind of feeling that as the polaris i made a few years ago, all the pieces fit the proportions of this vehicle wich is GREAT I still need to check the aviability of green pieces to make the body but i think it will be all right. It's time to start planning the axles.... I'll start making them with no differentials as they are lighter... Once I'll build it (wich is something im gonna do on sunday) i'll check if it works good enough, otherwise im gonna add 'em later. thanks Jim! what do you mean by using google sketchup?, im taking the screens out of LDView :)the one above is just composed in photoshop Thanks everyone i hope i can keep you all interested on the long term :P

    PAJERO UPDATE So: here's what i think it will be the core of the pajero. I'll use the new driving ring selector and an M motor to operate it. Probably final gear ratio will be 1:4 on high ratio and 1:8 on low ratio... but i might change it to 1:3 and 1:6 if i use differentials hope you'll like it :)

    Hello fellow builders :) It's been a while since I released something new, (not counting the quad of some weeks ago), i've been a lot busy with work, study, band and a new girlfriend... All of this didn't stop my obsession for lego tho :D So instead of opening a thread everytime i start building something, I'll put everything in this one, even if it can get a lil bit messy... you know, I can't focus on a single thing per time, I need to do 300 things together :P I'll try to keep it tidy anyway.... I will write down everything i'm developing on the first post, and it will have a color assigned like the color that the actual model is gonna have. Every update will have the same color as its "folder" so for those who are interested in following what I do it will be easier understanding what am I working at :) I hope it will be interesting ^^ NOW BUILDING: NISSAN HARDBODY 4x4 2 L motors AWD Gearbox H/L Differential lock 2 Live axles MITSUBISHI PAJERO 1990 2 Buggy motors AWD Gearbox H/L (maybe) 2 Live axles SEQUENTIAL SYNCHRO GEARBOX 3+R BAJA VOLKSWAGEN 2 Buggy motors RWD Independent suspensions

    maybe you could build an explorer....basically i'd build it if i had the hull but i dont, but the concept would be allowing the camera to turn and rotate in every direction :P

    duuude that thing is unstable as hell lol try gearing the propeller down a bit unfortunately youll have to wait till i publish something with a boat... probably end of summer, maybe in september :\

    some good southern rock and pieces spreaded all over the desk are the only thing i really need... sometimes i use ldraw to check proportions before i start building but without pieces in my hands i wouldnt be able to do anything :P
  8. piterx
    this is what we need
  9. piterx
    that should work like a centrifugal pump slewentogzz made one to empty his hull from water, i wanna try making one to make the boat move
  10. piterx
    ahuahu yeah btw this hull seems perfect to try this thing out but i think i'll design a proper turbine casing and print it in 3d...
  11. piterx
    xD no way! i posted the rubber band boat first! btw this boat is great :) i mean, i don't like too much colors but its performances are amazing, im gonna get this hull and try a thing i have in mind :)

    now that's huuuuge lol it looks really good! well done :)
  14. piterx
    wow that's epic !!! and that green color *.*
  15. piterx
    oh yeah, if you watch the video i've reinforced it immediately after with a technic plate and two 1.x2 plates :) omg i so wanna make an RC boat! unfortunately the only hulls that are good for what i have in mind (a motorboat) are the one used by Grohl (wich is huuuuuge) and a smaller one wich doesn't give me the right vibrations to put a lipo battery on it xD

    Help with hulls

    piterx replied to piterx's topic in LEGO Town

    Hey! thanks for all the answers guys :) what i'm actually trying to do is a proper motorboat, so no catamarans :P on youtube theres the one made by Grohl that uses the belville theme hull.... thing is that i'd like to make something way smaller than that i've made a quick test with the 4011 hull and unless it floats perfectly it's not going to work XD

    Help with hulls

    piterx posted a topic in LEGO Town

    Hello guys! I don't belong to this section but i really need your help: I need a floating hull that can handle let's say around 200-300g without sinking as i'd like to build an IR motorboat. Is there anyone of you that has some experience with boats? i was thinking about the one from 4011 set...but it might be too small.... is there something inbetween that one and the biggest ones used for ships? thanks a lot :)
  18. piterx
    still both motors will try to run at the same speed :) so yes, if you want something with a better handling you need a diff
  19. piterx
    yeah definitely go for something different than the one i used :P this one would work great in my opinon! it's still small but will handle way more weight than the one i had :)

    Hello guys! In the meanwhile im waiting for the pieces to finish my nissan and a lot of stuff i have in "WIP" state, i moved to my hometown for one month, but i didnt take my legos with me... Here i only have 90's lego parts.... i was checking what i had in that bucket and had this idea :P hope you'll like it and i really hope someone improves it with a bigger hull, bigger gears and stronger rubber bands ;)
  21. piterx
    A small scaled car with front wheel drive 2L differential like the one made by efferman, and independent suspension...im so sick about live axles
  22. piterx
    i just saw this.... im sorry to say it but nicjasno got passed :O
  23. piterx
    that's really cool :) you should try it in a car and see if it works....if you share a ldraw model of it i'd be happy to test it out :)
  24. piterx
    really cool :) id love to partecipate in something like this! just a question: why are all the models so slow? i mean, of course they're crawlers but for obstacles shown in the video something faster than that would have worked just fine :P
  25. piterx
    Im not into tanks that much but u did a great job!
