1932 Ford Hot Rod
OleBM replied to Doc_Brown's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
It's a solid axle setup, the most basic suspension there is. See here for info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_axle Commonly used in old cars, muscle cars and trucks.- 82 replies

The Reaper 4 x 4
OleBM replied to Doc_Brown's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The performance looks awesome. Few trucks/cars would manage what you accomplished with yours, especially when climbing that board. I thought it was going to tip backwards for sure, but the weight distribution in this car is obviously perfect- 44 replies

The Reaper 4 x 4
OleBM replied to Doc_Brown's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Cool! Am I correct when I assume that you could actually (to a certain deegree) "meet and climb" a vertical object with the front? And are those the rims used on the unimog? If so, I would love to know where I can order some of those tyres! They look awesome- 44 replies

What kind of differential to use?
OleBM replied to Junpei's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The 24-16 diff is also very good. If you're into modifying, you can cut and reduce the axlehole depth on one of the old 24T crown gears, to make it compatible with the 24t gear on the 24-16 diff, eliminating the needs for gears in between. The result is a very compact diff solution -
What kind of differential to use?
OleBM replied to Junpei's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
That's just a matter of how you build it The 8T gear is just hopeless when it comes to heavy duty drivetrain. I guarantee you that this is the first part to break in drivetrain applications. With the old style diff 28T, the 12T gear is the way to go. You just have to know how to build it properly so the gears won't slip. -
What kind of differential to use?
OleBM replied to Junpei's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Why do you need to only use the 14 teeth gear? I ALWAYS use the old style 28 teeth diff with either a 12 or 20 tooth double bevel... It's the strongest diff lego has ever made. -
KZKT 7428 Rusich Tank Transporter
OleBM replied to Sariel's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Most extreme monstertrucks are actually fueled by a mixture of turpentine, whiskey, and gasoline/diesel, so I suppose vodka could work too "Everything is allright with enough vodka." But the model looks very nice!- 36 replies

Custom parts
OleBM replied to AKM_76's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This looks very nice! May I ask what you have put in there? Brass wire/rod? And I totally agree with you. Sometimes, standard lego parts will not allow for a complete and functional model, simply because they just don't work. This is a brilliant example of just that. -
