[TC9] Garden Tractor & Lawn Mower
JamesJT replied to Jurss's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The suspended seat is a nice touch. I would also like to see the blades move faster. -
[TC9][WIP] roadster/hotrod?
JamesJT replied to muffinbrick's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
That looks like fun! I imagine a retro tribute to 8865 test car body would look great in studless with a few panel throw in. -
At this scale manual folding is fine, it would help to free up volume if you need it later in the build.

[TC9] Garden Tractor & Lawn Mower
JamesJT replied to Jurss's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Looking good already, I bet it will get better as it evolves (like your mini super car did). How big is this model? Would your supercar have fit in TC9? -
Thank you Jim Great news, thank you. I'm still not sure if I can fit all that in 10000cs so I may just build the plane instead.

They have been around for a long time. Just don't buy a used 8653, 8674 or 8145 off ebay without the original box and instructions.

We are allowed a car & trailer, but are we allow to build something to go on the trailer? Would that fall under the "No seperate models" rule? (Example car, trailer & motorboat)

If I build a plane or helicopter, would the height be measured with the landing wheels up or down?

Great work. Looks like it could be built in other colours too. -

Does TC9 have to be totally non PF? -
Great competition, thank you Jim and Milan. I had not built a crane before and probably never would have without TC8. I did learn a lot.

I get how your system works, I just noticed that you could have 3 speeds with just 2 motors in to 1 differential.- 17 replies

So with different gearing from the motors in to the differentials you could make a 3 speed with just 2 motors. One motor backwards to slow down and forwards to speed up. The other motor would just be on or off. 3 motors, all with different gearing would give 27 speeds(?) Somebody check my maths, that sound like way too many I like that they would be seamless changes too.- 17 replies

I like how this is evolving. It gets better with every update.
