  1. Well so far no damaged U joints :) Only dirty wheels hehe. I belive if I had more wheels and motors, the truck could be expanded even further to 10x10 or even 12x12.
  2. Here's a simple dirty try... Works good, but the 8 tooth gears tend to hit the side beams, so that needs to be fixed.
  3. A bobcat style loader would be a more interesting IMO.
  4. Lovely paneling! With a few tweaks I could imagine an Official TLG set like that...and with some internal worm screw made out of ribbed or flex tubing :D
  5. As soon as you will go downhill you will loose control of thr crawler IMO..
  6. Thanks! About the chassis, I intentionally didnt bother to make it very stiff in order to allow better flexibility. Middle hing...Might be a good or a bad idea, because there is less rear weight transfer when going up the hill and the entire thing could pop up like a worm...
  7. Its awesome! But maybe a bit too slammed down?
  8. Hehe, thanks! I will post video here again, because nobody will see it on a previous page:
  9. Good work, drives well and looks good :)
  10. The finished FOX: So...what to add...Its just..crazy.... The power, the traction, the control you have is...addicting. Its faster than 9398, more maneuverable, much more stable...Its the best 8x8 I have ever built and IT KICKS megablocks. As usual I am GIVING AWAY FREE the LDD file. Some pointers, the wheels are replacement parts. The finished truck has quite a flexible chassis, but in this particular case that aint a bad thing, because there are no drivelines to bend. www.brickshelf.com/gallery/zblj/Trial/Byte/fox_8x8x8.lxf And the allmighty video:
  11. What about a tatra-like axle? By using only one U joint and driveaxle to swing about?
  12. What a beauty!!! Love all the angles and curves, very organic!
  13. Krize, there is no tug of war when it comes to 9398 or heavier 41999...its just an epic win....Its some 2-3x heavier with far more grippy wheels and also faster! You will see what i will pull....And this time record better it so noone will call me fake :)
  14. Guys, here's the finished beauty: Also some quick videos of it driving up the bed, skid steering and driveline test: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/zblj/Trial/Byte/file0060.mov http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/zblj/Trial/Byte/file0061.mov http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/zblj/Trial/Byte/file0063.mov
  15. Like I siad I would use a servo motor to control valves on the same port as drive motor...
  16. Maybe use a simple clutch gear connected to drive motor...Or use a servo motor to control the valve.
  17. Holy F*** thats massive! How does it perform with such weight?
  18. Yes its seems there should be more diverity to the sets other than just heavy constructiction machinery etc...Why not more boats? Or somethign totally different like IDK wtaches, mechanism, universal sets, etc..
  19. I would suggest you to use studded construction at least some 7 layers high with both vertical and diagonal bracing in all directions.
  20. I think you will have to totally redesign the chassis to fit 2 XL's per axle.
  21. Proboably LA for steering and pneumatics for showel motion?
