  1. Alexander is from Ukraine. Their lime G63 6*6 was a dreamcar :) @Igor1 nice comix)
  2. I believe, thanks It was 40 or how many years ago. Today G-class is an expensive toy.
  3. Only the first two images have the same tyres, byt they are custom. I meant Mercedes Benz do not use these tyres at their factories. PS: There's Alexander on the second image :)
  4. I ordered mine 3.0 version several month ago - and still wait for it :( About older vesrions - nor sure that any queue exists at all.
  5. I'm not sure. Have you ever seen the real Gelandevagen with such tractor tyres? Neither did I :)
  6. I got it. It's coll that you have your own opinion!
  7. Cool experience! Soon you'll be able to assemble Chiron/Sian without instructions :) Keep building!
  8. @Igor1 Maybe try to extend the fenders enough to cover the wheels width?
  9. No worries - parts from this Sian may never be available in any other sets.
  10. Nico, this Ford look s absolutely incredible and if to be honest the wheels squared it's coolness!! Very welldone!
  11. I'm going to build it this year. MOC is fantastic.
  12. @Igor1Let me guess the tyres are smaller than DEfender ones. Do not cheat And I wonder how will look Unimog tyres also. There is a good chance to create a G 4*4 Squared here :)
  13. Could you please try it on Defender wheels? Maybe it will look cool like Squared Gelanewagen... And exaust pipes like on the last image - out of model, real car has straight pipes mostly I assume.
  14. I decided to release it too as it's simpler and requires less beams but with increased to 3 Kg lifting capacity. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-78281/OleJka/mammoet-ptc-200-ds-ssl/#details At this point I'm stopping working with this model and starting to disassemble it to save space at home :)
  15. I did a SSL configuration: no luffing jib, but extended to 1,5 meters main boom.
  16. Thank you very much! I wasn't borned with these skills. Firstly - I'm building MOCs since 2012, secondly this is my third technic crane. So it took me 9 years to be frontpaged here. Just build :)
  17. 2 kg test. Feels like it’s lifting capacity limit without any modifications. This chair from ikea weights 2,0 kg. I’ll public the proof tomorrow. And sorry for the background - no time for video edit. Soon I’ll public one more video of SSL modification. Stay tuned and thanks for the support!!
  18. And the new Mercedes sign? From Arocs it does not seems similar...
  19. One picture instead of many words: Thanks. Honestly it's not supposed to travel because here in Belarus we don't have any lego shows at all, BUT the whole model is modular - I can easily disconnect all booms, then, removing only 4 pins I can disconnect each 1/4 wheel chassis from the superstructure. And even the supersturucture can be divided by halves. Thank you! First of all thank you very much for this words - these are the most appreciated feedback! Secondly I'm not sure the toy crane should be able to lift several Kgs - this made of pure plastic and will create a huge stress on the beams, wheel's axles etc. Despite chassis are made very robust and ready for stress. Ok, yesterday, after minor upfrade crane lifted a chair which weights 2.0 KGs. I'll upload this video soon. Without increasing the counterweight ballast. But I feel this is the limit. The main boom becomes bending a bit. Thirdly I added two cross beams at the top of the Luffing jib section :) OMG!!! E-e-e-e-e-e-yeah!!! Thank you, Pawel!
  20. Thanks you! Thanks! And yeap - technology of a ring crane is not popular I assume. If to trust rebrickable - there are 4904 parts, excluding counterweight battery boxes. I know this Sarens monster, though, I prefer to build Mammoet As farI know this PTC-200 could also run on parrallel rail tracks - I saw some pictures of this configuration in the network. Thank you! I will count the ropes when I will extrack them. Roughly there are 60 meters. Could you please share an example? You are absolutely right. It's been transported in 200 40ft see contaiers, if I'm not wrong. Thank you!
  21. Hello everyone, let me introduce my latest MOC – Mammoet PTC-200-DS Ring Crane made of Lego Technic! This particular model attracted me for a long time, but since I saw it on YT installing the highest wheel in the world at UAE, I decided to investigate it’s building.So I started from calculating it’s scale and number of wheels required. Railway ring set up crane’s scale. Then I decided to make 4 ¼ carriers with two 1/8 halves inside, each on 4 train wheels. So, all in all I required 32 train wheels. So, I started to look for them on BL.Building started from these 1/8 carriers. I wanted each wheel to be driven to spread the torque all over the chassis. So each ¼ carrier is driven by L motor. Totally 4 L motors rotate 32 wheels for crane rotation :)Then I started to build main superstructure (half). Build two similar halves and connect them. Then installed winches, counterweight box and booms. There is not too much information about this crane in the network, so my build is based on some youtube videos and browsed images of the crane. I would not able to get any info from the company directly. So the crane may have some differences from the real model. And for some reason I can't say this is a scale model. For examble real crane has two rings with 64 wheels on each. Obviously, I can't build a model on 128 train wheels - this sclae is simply out of my budget.I was dreaming of a crane which would be able to lift up to 1 kilo. Luckily, this crane one can easily uplift even 1,5 Kg 😊Crane is powered by classic PF elements: 4 L motors for drive + steering rotation, 4 XL Motors for 7 winches. I recommend using 4 BBBoxes as a counterweight. Although only one is connected and needs to be charged. It would be simple to switch crane management to SBricks or Buwizzes (as there are five separate functions, you’ll require 2 sbricks or two buwizzes). Installing PU system instead of PF may become a challenge, especially for carriers. If you have only one battery box - this is not bad, crane is stable even with one battery box as a counterweight, but, obviously, it can't lift a lot or make a horizontal poisition. Crane is 210 cm high in the current configuration at it's highest position. Can lift 1500 gramms or maybe even 2000, but I didn't give it a try to save parts from stress. Fully RC with 5 channels with 3 IR receivers. Can be layed horizontally and back to working position without human help. More images Ah, building instructions are already complete and ready: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-77733/OleJka/mammoet-ptc-200-ds-ring-crane/#details
  22. Looks complex and finished! It's cool you were able to store all functions and motors in this small scale!
  23. Double rear wheels would be awesome, maybe use thin ones from Corvette set?
