Auroralampinen Posted May 27 Author Posted May 27 Well, i still haven't found a perfect track solution. So search goes on:). Quote
Auroralampinen Posted May 27 Author Posted May 27 Well, after a lot of rigorous testing. I might have found the perfect bogie design. Now the bogie design is inspired by 42055, and it seems to work perfectly. I will now go to my evening routines(like a almost 20km cycling trip). And then i will test this with tracks, this is soo promising:). Quote

Auroralampinen Posted May 28 Author Posted May 28 Allright, the 42055 inspired tracks were a complete success. And now the model is done, and the model can now handle with ease the 1kg load:). Now i will make free building instructions for this, and then this job is done, happy days:). Quote
Auroralampinen Posted May 28 Author Posted May 28 So, here are final model functions:). Multidirectional gearbox wich controls 4 functions, Functions, Left track, Right track, Superstructure rotation, And dumping function:). Other specs Inline 4 engine with cooling fan imitation, opening doors and frunk, detailed cabin with 2 steering wheels(other for steering and other for superstructure rotation), pedals, fire exstinguisher, 2 spare tracks, with 8 in total track pieces:).

Auroralampinen Posted May 28 Author Posted May 28 (edited) And i have to say. The superstructure was really difficult to engineer. Because the superstructure has to be perfectly balanced. And the superstructure has to be really strong to carry the battery box plus other heavy things, and i didn't want this model turn out like the 10300, because what i have heard, that model inner core bended overtime. And it had to be flipped to bend back. And because in this model the turntable is far away from cab and battery box, the structure had to be heavily reinforced. Because i don't want the cab to be bending down, and some my early developement photos. There is a signifigant lean when the superstructure has been rotated to sideways. But now with the undercarriage the superstructure won't anymore bend. So happy days:). Edited May 28 by Auroralampinen Quote
Auroralampinen Posted May 29 Author Posted May 29 Progress for the instructions:). Pieces so far 842:). Quote
