  1. While what you said is true, telling other members what to do is never a good idea on a forum. Just use the report button. Other than that, yes, let's not ask for pictures any more.
  2. I don't have speed computer, so i used this differential method once, when i had to use two M motors coupled together. It worked great.
  3. Its perfectly fine if they are on a new page.
  4. Did you try that trick with the differential between two motors? You can use it to find out which motor is faster/slower than the other. Or if they are the same speed. About instructions...I know there is some videos with them on YT. Maybe someone who has the Speed Comp will be able to tell you more details.
  5. Hi, welcome to EB. This question is a bit more "general", and also, this question/topic already exist, so we'll merge it to the existing one.
  6. Real thing: Interesting fact about Liebherr cranes is that you can figure out how heavy they are and what is their load capacity, just by looking at them. Namely, when you see how much axles they have, you multiply that number with 12 tons, and you get the actual weight of the crane. And when you see their number next to their name, you just remove first number, and you get how much they can lift in tons. Let's use the Liebherr LTM 1040 crane for example: Number of axles: 2. 2 x 12 tons equals total weight of 24 tons. Name: LTM 1040. 1040, when we remove first number "1", we are left with 040, or 40 tons of lifting capacity. About Dawid's crane, the real machine can lift 1000 tons (Liebherr LR 11000, removing "1" leaves us with 1000t). About weight, for this crane we need to know what exactly it has from its equipment, as it can have different modules that can increase/decrease the weight. It can have counterweight of 750+ tons.
  7. Have you even seen a Lego crane lifting a real chair, and still able to slew and drive? Let's just trow in that it is fully motorized, has load sensors, and could be set to be 7.5 meters (24+ feet) tall! Check it out in our Technic Forum, its builder @Dawid_Szmandra is showing how it works just now!
  8. Thanks @Dawid_Szmandra for accepting the invitation, and showing us your newest, and biggest model so far! I think we can all agree that this creation alone, even though Dawid produced more cranes, deserves a nice tag! Really, one of the best Lego crawler lattice cranes ever!

  10. No speculations, please. Let's stick to the things we know.
  11. I'll move this to our Community Forum.
  12. @the last chronicler Please remove or resize your signature. It is way too big. You can find detailed info about signatures in our Guidelines. Thanks.
  13. Hello Dave, Posting confidential pictures is not allowed, since Lego does not want them to be visible to public, just yet, for various reasons. Asking for pictures here, is not allowed since we would not read posts about 2018 Technic sets discussion, but members posts asking for pictures.
  14. Please don't write with Caps Lock on. Thanks. Please don't talk to other members like that. If you have a problem with their post, use the report button. Thanks.
  15. @Maaboo35 No quoting pictures from the same page, please!
  16. Nah, just crane enthusiast, probably too big for my own good .
  17. Most crane manufacturers calls their mobile cranes "all terrain crane". They can have from 2 to 9 axles. Sometimes they also have most or even all their axles powered. But that does not qualify them as all terrain cranes, mostly because of number of axles. Namely, due to road regulations (weight), manufacturers have to increase number of axles for their cranes to be able to legally drive on public roads. Max load on one crane axle is 12 tons. So, when they put more than two axles on a mobile crane, it looses its off road capabilities...when driving over big bump, the crane will have at least one axle hanging in the air at some point, putting other axles above allowed stress. Now imagine 5+ axles crane on that same bump. Two axle crane will always have its two axles pressed on the road, and will use them fully, and under manufacturer allowed stress. So, rough terrain cranes are much better for real off road, compared to mobile all terrain cranes. They have bigger tires/higher ground clearance, they are shorter/better maneuverability, they have 2 live axles/all wheels always touching the ground, and are able to travel to un-improved work sites.
  18. @Aventador2004 size, twice in an hour, in two topics...
  19. No, we need to have equal means of propulsion in all entries.
  20. Hello @brettcuv Please take a look at the Guidelines about posting idea links. You may post a small link, but it needs to be a part of the moc presentation. You are not allowed to use EB as a promotional tool for you Ideas moc. Thanks.
  21. We had this idea in mind before, but now, when it seems that some kind of non-vehicle idea is gathering interest, it could be in a raffle for this holiday contest.
