  1. I have build this little thingy and I am dissappointed (a bit, but...) It does look fresh and fancy, but offers very little as for large Technic set. Three large linear actuators driven directly by knobs and four wheel steering could be presented in more appealing way (driving rings and such). But it delivers quite nice pack of parts, and have great potential for modding. I'd give it 6/10.
  2. Do the green LEDs on IR receiver and remote blink when using switches?
  3. Could you make a movie showing these problems?
  4. And showing parts in colours never released in sets, like yellow Porsche wheel arches ;)
  5. Wow, really nicely shaped front. And only with Technic pieces. I'd go for much wider attachement.
  6. But the lack of double wheels on front is? ;)
  7. Very cleverly designed lifiting mechanism, which does not work like real thing, but I still like it. Full review will be posted tomorrow. Also, one of the best looking B models in Technic line in past few years. All pictures are here: https://bricksafe.com/pages/M_longer/reviews/42079#
  8. We got used to use [ img] tags on polish forums, EB automatically embeds them, so you need to remove [/img ] from end of the link.
  9. How many parts damaged?
  10. Look at instruction page 13 and see the magic going there:
  11. So it seems that it needs a pack of EV3 sensors...
  12. I have put a 16L link under and it fit perfectly ;) I am going to build the B model in the evening too.
  13. That PR nonsense LEGO is giving with that set would make much more sense if that set was fully motorized, don't you think?
  14. I'd go for Mack one, better fits the scale of model.
  15. Let's start with most obvious one - double wheels and widened mudguards: Another modifications that come to mind are rebuilding the fork part for higher raising and making the steering system to work properly. Thougts?
  16. I've added few more parts to front mudguards too. Size comparision with Mack Anthem: Full review in polish: http://zbudujmy.to/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=8811 And few words about the set itself: Well designed, playable, but two functions work only properly, but could better (steering works backwards) and forks could move higher than middle of the frame (for example, in last liftarm based forklift, 8416 the forks travels right to the top). Interesting color scheme (Dark Blue is still not so common in Technic sets). Great base for modiffications (like adding those double wheels, rebuilding the forks, changing steering etc.). Actually, with few tweaks it could be the best Technic forklift to date.
  17. It is possible to make the steering working in a proper way, but it requires removing those Technic triangles and reinforcing rear part of the frame with different parts, right behind the engine.
  18. They look definitelly better than pictures made by LDD. It is. I still don't like usage of exhaust for steering.
  19. 42079 Forklift Truck - Theme: Technic - Year: 2018 Bricklink Brickset LDD file (LDD 4.3.11 2670) Errors: - All parts present, not correctly placed 3L universal joint - String is not attached. - All stickers are missing.
