    I left the axle unbraced because the gearbox output is not "in system", its at an angle. Also there was no need to, the axle has yet to fall out. There's also a video of me cleaning the model, but I left it out... It was REALLY messy. And DONT DRIVE YOUR LEGO THROUGH MUD. It got inside the hubs and hardened itself, so I had to take the whole axles apart inculding the hubs, clean and lubricate them with siicone spray. Yes I used a total 8 LEDs, the most I ever used in a single model. 41999 plate is a sticker yes. I got Vayamenda from Mahjqa personally as a gift, so why not use it to show my respect Anyone interested in the lxf for the chassis?

    Nice use of rubber band for teeth.

    That looks really epic! Love the holes in the ground!

    Seems like a good start! 2 RC motors at this scale? Thats gonna be fast! Also why not attach the front wheels inwards to the hubs?

    So here's the finished beauty: Size comparison to a minifigure... And the 41999: As you can see the sides are slightly sloped inwards, the roof is a studd narrower than the body: The axles are small, but very tough: And of course the all needed undershot: This is one of my biggest and heaviest models to date. But because of powerfull RC motors, gearbox and RC unit its one of the fastest and best performing too. Each axle has a 1:4,2 gearing and even though they are very thin, they have no problems supporting the weight of this monster. Each axle is also supported on 8 positions, including 4 for springs. The rear axle uses 4 link suspension with upper links holding axle centered. The front axle uses one one arm to center it on the side, because the other side uses a linkage connected directly to RC unit's mechanical output for steering. This way I have precide and direct steering control. Thanks to the eccentric driveline, there is a very low torque twist which allowed me to use soft springs (4 springs per axle like original) for best offroad perforamance. Soft suspension is also more forgiving when it comes to open differentials which I had to use for high speed driving and turning. Besides being one of most detailed models its also a model with highest number of LEDs, here being 8. Hope you like the video:

    Very impressive! I'm gonna take a look maybe find some solutions.

    I just finished the model's interrior (It has 5 seats) and tweaked the rear axle drive. Yes the motors drive it extremely well the low speed has enough torque to skid all wheels under power and the high gear allows a quite high top speed. I also had to use some lubricant on the gearbox due to axles starting to melt in high gear deforming the casing and causing athe axles FUSING to the bearings... Expect a video and better pictures soon.

    Such a fun little design. I like the simplicity and how clean it looks.

    Funny and cute. Happy easter!
  11. Zerobricks
    Looks very nice. Why are axles just pendular though?
  12. Zerobricks
    The crane really stands out. Good work.

    I lowered the roof by a stud, looks much better now... I used normal hubs, because the old design while really awesome, had problems with wheels sliding off axles.

    Small progess update
  15. Zerobricks
    That works great Nice idea.
  16. Zerobricks
    Wow, thats amazing! A real piece of art, both in shapes and colors.
  17. Zerobricks
    The small one is so cute! I like them, but do you think they would look smoother using tiles?
  18. Zerobricks
    What an interesting banana-shape! I love it. Nice hidden cannons too.
  19. Zerobricks
    That looks interesting and massive! Does it drive?
  20. Zerobricks
    I guess its back to singing EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!
  21. Zerobricks
    Stick your nail on the top red slit and push it...That should relase the box cover.
  22. Zerobricks
    Wow, that thing looks compact! Nice SNOT technique used, cant see a snigle stud or hole..
  23. Zerobricks
    Well done, these looks really great! Whats with all the plankton heads
  24. Zerobricks
    A very different yet equaly interesting idea! Nice use of red lights for that...RED LIGHT DISTRICT look.
  25. Zerobricks
