Great news my mod is finished, i will post a pic's and videos soon.

Nice truck can i see the 'flashing mechanism'.

You can do it all ready with nxt motors and a small LA.

Thanks you can see how i did mine below: Hope you dont mind me posting a video of mine in your topic.

Have you came up with a steering trailer were the power ot the trailer goes though the 5th wheel?

I think we will see a rc vehicle next year as we had the rc excavator last year and the bulldozer in 2007. I think it would be allready possible to make some sort of servo motors using nxt motors.

Adding a air tank is really only good if you want a high powered burst of air,or you have a power full compressor to fill it up quickly.

I look forward to see the city started am sure it will be as good as all the rest of the towns on Eurobricks.

Your shopping center looks great,dont forget to add a lego shop.

Yes thay do fit on to any of the bushes shown above.

I do not the this new version of LDD but i would think it is ether one of these: 1) a simple mistake from Lego. 2)There is a difference in the two tires: tread, groves inside it , made from a softer/harder rubber. If you could take a picture of the ldd interface maybay this could help us. ctrl+print screen -> 'paint' -> paste

Its a seddon atkinson?

Progress is going well on my mod 8043 (i dont think i will call it a moster mod any more )i thoght about making it pneumatic but space was going to be a issue so i stuck with la's,it should be finished tonight all going well.

Welcome to the forum.

Hino? which is owned by toyota (which makes them very reliable) any way back to the lego.

May i ask what you use for your windscreen?(on your new truck)

Yes i should have every thing i need, am thinking of making a monster mod i will see how the building goes. I think i will make this also for alanp as i promised him something athough he likes air to LA's. .

I sure will

Its in bits but i will see what i can do in the comeing days.

Great work again may i see a pic of the real truck? the front looks nothing like the front of my truck.

I have the 8043 set and yes i also got 2 micro motors.

Well that a shame, if you are up to it you could redesign the whole upper section and a new arm. But you will need at least 1 receiver and 2 small pf motor,I just checked bricklink and there was a micromoter in the usa without the 2 side parts and the pulley for $20 for those in the uk you can pick one up for £10 (untested) bricklink mini motor prices
