    I just love how massive and spikey he is! Very well done.

    Nice idea with spheres for wheels, I like it.
  3. Zerobricks
    A really detailed start, just dont forget to use some technic pieces too

    Chassis is done, rear axle also uses pushrod suspension. And here's an idea of the look in LDD: To be honest I'm not so inspired by this look and chassis, I am thinking of maybe making a different type of a truck, maybe unimog... What do you guys think?

    50 years ago people thought we are gonna have flying cars...I dont tthink 30 years from now diesel or driver will be fully eliminated. Sure there will be hybrids (which this truck will be) and the driver will still be needed in some situations just like pilots even though they have autopilot.

    I decided to also try the Mercedes 2045 challenge, and here's what I made so far in LDD. Its a very compact drive indepent suspension with pushrod suspension...the truck will be 4WD More info and updates soon...

    Steering works fine, even when standing still it manages to steer the 4 wheels even though 60% of weight is in front. It can lift over half a kilogram, weight is limited by winch motor and pneumatics lift cylinders. Merc competition? I have no idea Yes the chassis is very sturdy and can be used for many other purposes, I may make an LDD file for the chassis The video will be relased near the end of the competition, still have to record 2 more models which are priority. I wanted a different, more modern and more intimidating cab, there's a lot more hidden stuff I didnt show yet.

    I'm not sure about the weight, my scale goes only up to 2 kilograms, but I estimate it weighs 5-6 kilograms...

    Woah, that looks really massive! I like the clever LA lifting mechanism with worm sliding on the drive axle.

    Thanks, but ran out of red I will see what I can do... There are no rollers, because the crane has a very heavy counterweight and the turnatble is driven by a dual drive so it can overcome the friction with ease. The size is a bit over 90 cm long, 25 cm wide and 30 cm high when all is folded.

    I know you've been all waiting... And here's the time! The truck is 90% done, its my biggest, heaviest, most motorized and detailed model so far... Here are some WIP pictures, the final ones will of course be better. More detailed pictures and description of all the functions coming in about a week, at the moment I have another technic competition to concentrate...

    That looks really good. Awesome use of boat weights for wing tips!
  14. Zerobricks
    Soon guys, dont worry. ATM I have some other priorities.
  15. Zerobricks
    Spooky, great design!
  16. Zerobricks
    Well done, the linkage works great!
  17. Zerobricks
    I've seen some small trucks with those... I think its a bit too much stretching?
  18. Zerobricks
    And the LDD file? Any way to get it?
  19. Zerobricks
    I can complete them, if someoen can get me instruction scan.
  20. Zerobricks
    Anyone did the 42043 Arocs yet? I could have sworn I saw some pictures!
  21. Zerobricks
    Thats an awesome model. it looks so retro-futuristic and its fast too! Those thin wheels sure help reducing the rolling resistance.
  22. Zerobricks
    The bobbing echange mechanism is just hypnotic! Only thing I'd suggest you to do is to use longer axles in the worm gear holders, maybe some 3L with stud at the end and a bush on the other end to keep the triangles from sliding apart.
  23. Zerobricks
    Dont forget about #4 connector, which is 45 degrees. You can also get 45 degrees by using 5x9 bent liftarm and the inner ellagonated pinholes.
  24. Zerobricks
    I think you could mesh a 60 tooth gear at a diagonal, like you can 28 small tunrtable with an 8 tooth one?
  25. Zerobricks
    Looks so cute! I really like the color combo. Can we see the underside?
