  1. A small update: The cabin is almost finished and the pumps, L motor and valves are put in the hull. The ladder is now only one stud wide due to the small scale. Should I widen it to two studs for function or just keep it? Oh, forgot to say that I'll go with R9800 model, since it has the most "simple" hull.
  2. The truck looks great, I like the cabin very much! You really capture the line of MAN truck very well!
  3. They did fine when there isn't any load in the bucket. The tube of the cylinder for the stick lies on the space for the axle. If the half pins fail when the bucket contains something I'll try to put a solid axle there anyway. Thank you for the advice. Ahh, yes. The front part of Terex and liebherr's bucket are not very different, of course, I'm not the expert here. There back part differs pretty much. Luckily, the liebherr one is not very complex.
  4. Nice design here! I always dream to have a technic car which can shift gears without stopping, now it's almost there!
  5. Thank you . I was inspired by Sheo's great RH400 when designing the bucket. The "teeth", bent beam and panels combination are more or less learnt from him, So, kudos Sheo!
  6. Thanks Jim and other guys for your kind words. I almost spent the whole weekend on this and now it looks like this: (keep in mind that the body work is there just to define the boundary) I decided to use a small pneumatic pump to power the bucket, it works pretty well. With all the tubes plugged on, the arm now seems a little messy. Unlike the real one, I merged most the tubes of the same functions together, and spilt them just before the cylinders' port. By doing this, there are "only" 8 tubes on the upper side of the boom. Also, having tested all the pneumatic functions and they all work well. Please leave your comments and happy building.
  7. Hi, all, I was planning to make a pneumatic front shovel excavator after buying 42053. Combining with the pneumatic parts of 42043, I'll have enough big cylinders for the excavator. It will be a pretty big one and fully RC is a good choice. Since this contest forbidding using PF other than driving the pumps, I chose to build a smaller one using the V1 pneumatic parts. Planned functions: 1 x L motor for pump(s) 2 x V1 big cylinders for the boom 1 x V2 thin cylinder for the stick 2 x V1 big cylinders for the bucket tilting The number of pumps and how to open the bucket are not decided yet. I aim to build this: Liebherr R9800, but it may end to a smaller type since that will look more proper at a small scale. The current progress: Advices are always welcome. Thanks for watching
  8. Take your time, we all have too much patience (or too few tumbler wheels ). Just joking. Again, another true master piece from you! Please keep up the excellent work!
  9. Thank you for your kind words. I think the neck is a little too narrow/thin considering the looks. Maybe it will look better by adding some more beams.
  10. Thank you very much for the tips. I'll change the music when I get home today. Thanks for the feedback. Will fix that and let you know. Update: Hi, JJ2 & Andy, I've changed the music, please check again if you can watch the video now.
  11. Thank you. When you say "the back", do you mean the back of the body or the back of the head or both?
  12. Update: I've finished the instruction and put it to rebrickable. Photo instructions and RB link is here: http://rebrickable.c...o-technic-walle
  13. Hello, all, I'd like to present you my third MOC: A lego technic Wall.E This MOC was motivated by Lego ideas wall e 21303. Since there is hardly any room left for motorized aside from the 2 tracks, I decided to make a motorized technic version from stretch. The goal is to make a motorized version as small as possible while packing enough motorized functions. The end result is a little bigger than the ideas one. It uses 7 motors and 2 Sbricks in total. The Sbricks can be substituted by 4 IR receivers of course. Though some parts at the back of the model need to be removed for the additional receivers. The motorized functions are: 2xL motors for propulsion (one for each track) 1xL motor for head rotation 1xL motor for head pitch 1xM motor for body lifting 2xM motor for the arms 1xAAA battery box It has some manual functions too: Like the ideas one, both arms can be moved back and forward. Since its arms are based on the large LA, they can extend and retract. It has three fingers on each hand. Its cargo door can be opened by hand, however, the cargo space are taken by the battery. Photo instructions and RB link is here: http://rebrickable.c...o-technic-walle Video: (please let me know if you can not watch the video) Now, photo time! I was trying to make it stand-able, but the result is not very good. The body can only be lifted by 4 units or so. The difference is showed below: Here is it comparing with 21303: Some details: The cargo bay is a little crowded... The motors used to control its head movement are part of its head structure. By doing this, 3 M motors, the battery box, the body lift mechanism and 2 Sbricks can fits in its body. The underside is very simple: More photos can be found at: http://bricksafe.com...lconluan/walle/ Hope you like it. Thanks for watching.
  14. I love it! very well done on the look. Looking forward to the instruction, I want try to marry the bodywork to Nico's little Honda
  15. Wow, it's great to see my tractor again . Noticed that you added some nice details. What trouble do you have on suspension? Hope I can help
  16. Wow, it reminds me of McLaren P1. Can I say this is the first ever technic supercar which has amazing looks and acceptable speed at the same time while using PF motors? You've built masterpieces of crawlers, trophy trucks, supercars. I wonder what theme you will choose next?
  17. I think it depends on the body color you would choose Personally, I prefer the rally color like in the first pic, and I think race cars always look great in multi-colors, even if you just random throw some red, grey, white beams onto them.
  18. A very promising start! Thought the bumper needed some update when saw the first picture, and glad to see its' looks now.
  19. Masterpiece! Really like how you built the bodywork, where there are only a few non technic pieces.
  20. Looks nice, really love the "ordinary" car MOCs.
  21. Thanks for taking the effort putting it on the RB. Now, I can assure that I can build this baby.
  22. What a beautiful car! Well done Like the use of small panels on the hood.
  23. Another great review I like this set very much, both models look good to me and it's a great part pack for me, the long list in the "high light parts" session tells everything. As for the real world counter part of the A model, how about this: Try googling Sno-Cat and there a lots of such things.
  24. same here, was intended to buy 42051 for its' tires! now have to turn to 42034 again...
