    Those tilted screws are simply birrliant. Of course all other detailes are equally awesome, but the screws were the first thing I noiticed.

    Also in, reminds me of King Of The Hammers a bit.

    Can you share the LXF so I can put the panels above rear arches where they belong?

    I'm a bit late to the party, but you dont have to be a Lego fan to see how much you and your family are really bonded. As I said before you have a real will-power and patience to build, something that many of us take for granted may take you a long time. But in the end, I imagine the satisfaction of seeing a finished model meks it all worthwhile. I will be following this thread with great interest.

    Or if we think out of the box (or circle in this case) these parts now allow use to make some awesome curves like supports for bridges, wings, or even ramps and sinosuidal obstacles.

    This may sound silly, but I think the way you made stairs is simply the thing that got me interested in your replica in the first place. Well done making it look offical and clean looking.

    Having had experiences with the Fox which had an XL motor for each wheel, I was also a bit worried 6L motors may be a bit underpowered, but as you can see it has plenty of torque. The gear ratios are as following: High gear: 1:3 - Direct drive all the way to the portal gears. Its actually very fast ratio for such large wheels. Low gear: 1:9 - The differential casing takes on 3x torque of 3L motors or in short 9x torque of a single L motor, a quick calculation reveals its being pounded by a torque of over 160N/cm Thanks, i was also suprised how well and smooth the driveline works even though there is almost a meter of axles per side. The chassis could be a bit more stiff, if possible I would have used more frame pieces, but the spring and steering system placements kept me from adding more. Agreed, thank you I think there will be another smaller Oshkosh model coming soon. PS. I also added a more detailed description on my blog.

    We need more violet And as others said blue, maybe a model with all 3 shades of blue, medium normal and dark would be nice. I can iamgine for example a car staring with medium blue on hood, going to normal and ending the rear with dark blue. And some shades of orange lines to top it off.

    The small ones with ball joints or what?

    Just build a normal L shaped engine casing and than tilit it 45° I can try cooking something up in LDD. UPDATE: Here's a quicky made in LDD. The 12 studded axles keep the engine leveled:

    How would you rate my photo editing skills going from original: To the finished picture: Personally using a white background I learned a lot and the color correction plays a cruicial role in making crispy clear pictures.
  12. Zerobricks
    What about yellow? Its not a very common color for supercars.

    So after a long weekend here are the final results: Notice the massive ground clearance: The suspension travel is some 5 centimeters on all wheels: Any more wheels and I'd run out of fingers Rear of the giant, showing off the 41999 license plate: Some outdoor shots hauling the Coyote as promised: Sadly I couldnt find anyone to borrow me a cat, so just imagine the offroader on the back is a cute kitten And a final outdoor photo with interesting lighting: Oh and before I forget, here is the most important photo: Close-up of the dual double gear gearbox.... Yes I broke my tongue there: And to finish off with a bang, here's a video:

    Massive brick-built wheels.

    First thing I notoced is the use of upside-down panels for the lowest part of the front bumper...simply brilliant! A very compact, functional and good looking supercar, I can see you spent a lot of time and effort on this model.

    I meant can I use my old idea I already posted years ago, or do I have to come up with a different one?
  17. Zerobricks
    Does it has to be a new idea?
  18. Zerobricks
    Scale, wheel size, what motors are you using? Also no need to type in 24 pt text, we can see your text allright.

    Please read the Forum Information and Help topic. Also check this topic.

    Lately I built quite a few models that use servo motors for steering, for example the coyote 4x4x4 and the new oshkosh 10x10. I have a feeling that servo motors drain batteries quite a lot faster by these two models than for example by the fox 8x8x8 which used M motors for steering. Anyone else noticed batteries dying faster with models that use servo motors, or simillar?
  21. Zerobricks
    That looks like a good solution, gonna give it a go.
  22. Zerobricks
    Anything about 15-20k pieces in a single file is too much for LDD to handle. Split the model in smaller files while you still can.

    Adobe Premiere Pro, the same when I was working a video editor for a few months

    What wheels are you using? My Blue 4x4 has a rather narrow suspension, but it can be further shurnk by using the new steered hubs and 90 degree gearboxes to power the wheels and pivot at the same time.

    Thank your for your opinion. I know that in an ideal world where everything is stiff and has no slack this might not work, but: 1. Lego pieces have enough play for the axle to swiwel 30 degrees with no problems 2. Again turntable has enough slack to allow the frames to go slightly together when suspension is titled. It even works in LDD and we all know how unforgiving LDD's physics is 3. Try buildling and than criticise plase.
