I will not post anyone else's moc if they are a member of the forum. There is some enjoyment in posting a new moc that you have created to a forum,I will not take that pleasure away from the builder unless instructed to do so.

I can't understand what took you guys so long to post this I was talking to Paul on Friday.... Nice job Paul.

Looking great Jorge.

That was not what I suggested...

Lego make thin triangle shaped liftarms,try one of those or try the grey three pronged connector (used for attaching propeller blades).

Thanks very much Daniel and to the rest how help. I am rebuilding the gearbox,it stalls the motor in third.

Actually the saab 340 is a turbo prop in the middle does this matter when slowing down?

Ok thank you,that makes thinks a little clearer.

Front paging a moc is not just about showing off that builders skills but it also helps people get inspired to try and build something themselves.Maybe one day someone will inspire Blakbird to make something of his own and post it here. It does not matter if the builder is lacking in skill or materials,it should be the enjoyment of building something from scratch and feeling proud at yourself and of course being part of a community to share with other builders,who may well be "worse" than yourself.

This is definitely crazy all right.... At long last we might see a lego flying plane.... I hope you manage to finish this as I really want to see it get airborne.

Thank you very much for the pictures,I was able to find a image that shows the flaps down.This makes the plane gain lift. But what I am unsure is how does it slow down/loss lift? In other planes the end of the engine is not covering the flaps so you can have the flap move up and down.

Can any one add arrows to show me or can tell how they can add flaps during flight? If you look closely you can see the bottom of the engine cover is part of the flap section.

They only have the turntables on PaB,but have the new motors,new sets and mindstorms etc. Well now you will learn another way ,I always start with the gearbox in any build of mine I find the gearboxes are the hardest thing to build. Once I know wear both outputs will be then I will build the main frame. Thanks jim.

Very nice roadster.

This if my first ever plane....

Sheepos one was posted a few days ago,but it is now moved down by some other worthy front page item.

New pictures.... I bought a train motor from lego shop Glasgow to power my plane,it verily spins. The other out put will be for a flashing light sequencer. There is also a axillary output to be added to 2 and 3 gears....

Vee what are you trying to achieve in the design posted? Edit Like this?

I agree I got it not long after it came out and felt it was not one the lego's best technic sets,its now in bits.

I really like the old style studded truck.

I can tell you that you are not alone with that view,but that is not very popular it seams higher up the Eurobricks chain.

I never knew it was down. Lately I have just been buying sets for parts...

Yes,I know I don't have my tripod ether so it will be interesting in terms of photos and videos... Fingers crossed I will have more done by tomorrow.

So here is what it should look like when done.... And here is the "central" engine with a three speed gearbox. I will not bother on listing functions at this minute,but if you know me there will be some.

I will be your fan if your be mine.....
