jorgeopesi Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 As a fan of your MOCs ( tumbler, foxy, black wolf ) I have to say that large projects impress me much less, but anyway I am looking forward to see how it works. Quote
Milan Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 As a fan of your MOCs ( tumbler, foxy, black wolf ) I have to say that large projects impress me much less, but anyway I am looking forward to see how it works. Why? Quote
MajklSpajkl Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 This is one mean truck. I hope you get to build it one day ;-) I really like the suspension. Happy new year, miha Quote
jorgeopesi Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 I think the bigger MOC is will have fewer performance, when I see so much space I would think about doing the same on a smaller scale but is just an opinion, I try to always build in small scales or I don´t have so many motors . Quote
LeocornoProductions Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Great design, it looks like a tamed version of the fox, but I'm sure it will still be brilliant offroad. Quote
Tommy Styrvoky Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 I hope he doesn't plan on entering this in [TC6]...It's very very impressive for the size. Quote
Zerobricks Posted December 31, 2014 Author Posted December 31, 2014 Thanks for the praise guys! Nah I use too many motors for TC6. I will keep you guys updated when I manage to scrape the money. Quote
Epic Technic Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Why do you want to use L motors? Easier to attach? Quote
Zerobricks Posted January 1, 2015 Author Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) The motors act as a structual lement among all other things. They are attached dicretly to the 5x7 frames, one in the center and 2 on the sides. I decided to use them because of nice fast RPM (compared to XL), torque and the attachment points. Anyone interested in the lxf? Edited January 1, 2015 by Zblj Quote
Pluto_MkII Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 That's a cool moc. I like the details you put in it, especially the window frames. Have you ever thought about using lego air tanks in combination with your autopump? It'll give you a small buffer of air. Quote

Have you ever thought about using lego air tanks in combination with your autopump? It'll give you a small buffer of air. I did think about air tanks, but in this specific model where each function has a stand alone compressor without a centralized automatic compressor, the air tanks would make the arm less responsive. Thats because the pump would have to fill the airtank first and than the arm would move. Quote
Epic Technic Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 I'd love the LXF even though I don't have the parts for it, I could still learn. Quote
LeocornoProductions Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 BTW, ZBLJ YOUR ONLY 2 SUBS AWAY FROM 5000. Quote

Zerobricks Posted January 3, 2015 Author Posted January 3, 2015 Its uploading, still 200+ minutes to go... Thanks! Quote
Zerobricks Posted March 5, 2016 Author Posted March 5, 2016 Now that I managed to gather all the needed parts, I decided to build it live. The livestream will be active in saturday 12th march from 10:00 - 14:00 and from 16:00 to 20:00 GMT+1. More info can be found in the video below: Hope to see you all in a week. Quote
dr_spock Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 Cool. GMT+1. Is that 4AM EST? I'll be there. Will refreshments be served? It's BYOB. Or bring your own coffee depending where you are in the world. Quote
grum64 Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) Cool. GMT+1. Is that 4AM EST? It's BYOB. Or bring your own coffee depending where you are in the world. I'll be watching whilst in my LEGO shed so the coffee pot will be on, a plate of homemade Biscoti at my side. That's the catering taken care of. Looking forward to Zblj providing the entertainment. See you then. Edited March 5, 2016 by grum64 Quote
