    They would still need to use Ldraw if they wish to make instructions.

    It will be sad that the Lego group do not continue with LDD,I have used it quite a bit myself. Perhaps Eurobricks will need to conciser setting up a virtual stream/class to help out all you poor LDD users with learning LDraw.

    Some titles actually serve a purpose too.........like mine. No, but you could always kneel down and beg for it to be changed.

    We did have the cargo plane two years ago,so a "big" jet would be possible.
  5. Alasdair Ryan
    I would not be surprised if the jet was the flagship,I was kind of hoping to see a new masted forklift that used the longer pneumatic rams.
  6. Alasdair Ryan
    The uk site has got the new pneumatic elements listed but are out of stock. https://service.lego.com/en-gb/replacementparts#WhatBrickBuy/42043

    How easy could one motorize this set? People could have the unimog motorized in hours if they wanted too,if you remove the gearbox is there enough room for PF valves?

    Does the "std" not mean set? Set two: jet Set four: technic car

    I have never seen a La getting used for an exhaust before. Some people (Allanp) would probably thank you for one of the most "realistic" uses of La's yet. It is a very good C model with good functionality.

    Both sets of pictures shows for me.

    I think its too soon to be wishing for parts and B-Model instructions,I would hope that instructions would be up in two weeks time. And for the parts.....who knows.
  12. Alasdair Ryan
    I too would consider buying one,do you have a rough price in mind?
  13. Alasdair Ryan
    Do you think you would know how to use this piece? I have seen your mocs..... I personally think this has lots of great uses,custom LA's or telescopic booms would be what I would see myself use them for.

    Does the servo work ok if connected to the battery box directly? It could be your receiver,also take the motor out of your vehicle and test it separately. We do not need the music in the video,please leave this out.

    It sounds like you need help browsing for the LDraw parts,there should be a folder in your C drive named "Ldraw", use the file browser in the message box to browse to it.

    Replying with only one word comments like this,which do not add to the discussion and clutter up the topic will not get you very far on this forum. I was expressing my own opinion which I said with good manners and which I am entitled to do so.

    I think that comment could go down like a lead balloon,especially in this topic.

    I am going to be honest and say that the styling of the body could be better,the bucket is oversized and the wrong style also the cab is too wide. I think I would of attempted to build my own bucket out of plates/slopes.
  19. Alasdair Ryan
    I have messed around with silicon rubber and resin in the past too,I actually cast some parts for my die-cast model collection. When I made a cast of a bucket I found out that the ears of the bucket tended to get deformed due to the rubber closing in on its self,which made them weak compared to the rest of the bucket.

    I think you should consider extending the wheel base by a couple of studs,it looks too short as it is at the moment.

    I have not been very active on the building front lately but here is a idea I had for a compact yet reliable / easy to control pneumatic valve. Connecting a servo motor to the red axle joiner will move the rack and in turn operate the valve. It's smooth movement will also allow the valve to return to the centre. In terms of mounting and connecting you can connect straight to the red joiner or directly to the 12 tooth gear,since it is a double bevel gear you can also connect too it at a 90 degree angle which can take up less room. Instructions can be made on request but it it should be easy enough to get the idea on how it works (great for beginners).

    That is a great looking car,your car chassis does have similarity of sheepo's chassis did you base it of this?
  23. Alasdair Ryan
    Great looking and functional little plane.
  24. Alasdair Ryan
    I like this truck a lot,you have made nice job packing all of those functions into such a small moc. The body works is good too.
  25. Alasdair Ryan
    I like this entry a lot,you have made a good job with the body work.The weapons are also hidden very well into the bodywork.
