Seideno Posted May 26 Posted May 26 Has anyone managed to replace the Efferman actuator with lego? I'm stuck in the build and lack imagination :( Quote
Kladovec Posted May 27 Posted May 27 Hi there, I have/had Efferman actuator, but few months ago I rebuild it to this custom Lego one - operated via small winch and XL motor. Superstructure must be rebuilded. Quote Quote Quote
Seideno Posted May 28 Posted May 28 (edited) Thank you for your advice Kladovec . I've attached the design that I recreated from your photos, but I don't know if it's correct :) I'm going to continue the model in free time. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/nznxbtzotblxjiap9i2hi/actuator.io?rlkey=t9ivjns1fvtuiyez18035pniw&st=k2k01y0u&dl=0 Edited May 28 by Seideno attachment Quote
Kladovec Posted May 28 Posted May 28 It looks correct, one small correction in the actuator head I´m using shorter tip from technic brick (https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=2743#T=C). My reason for rebuilding and use brick build actuator was, that Effe´s 3D printed actuator was not capable to lift boom from plane position. But even this actuator can't handle it, you have to help yourself raise your hand, at least from the beginning. Quote
