This is what I managed to build today in cca 5 hours.

Its a very efficient, lightweight yet powerfull forklift. All functions are motorized with M motors.

Features:

- Front wheel drive with differential

- Pendular rear axle with ackermann steering geometry

- Lifting mechanism with double chains for max lift force of over 500 grams

- Fork tilting mechanism

I will upload better pictures and a video tomorrow

That's an impressive number of functions considering it's scale. It's really cute

Nice work. Its extremely compact. Why are the 2 drive motors geared differently?

I think the top one is for drive and the bottom is for steering.

That's a cute little lift. Pretty strong little guy, unless there empty (I wont tell anyone).

Great entry! So compact and really well designed!

I like it!

I have to leave the technic, it took me to make my komatsu more than 40 hours . Very cute.

Wait for me....around 100 hours here.

Great entry, too bad we did not see your monster truck,

Monster truck had issues, I will also make a video about what went wrong

I think the top one is for drive and the bottom is for steering.

I was confused as the 24T clutch gear and the drive gear seem to be on the same axle

Allot of functions in something so small. Well done.

I think my favorite models in this contest are the small ones, this one included. Great job, love the model style

Here are the proper pictures:

And a video:

Very nice video Zblj, I have always envied the way you make your presentations, I have close to zero skills in this department :)

And let's not forget, I am amazed on how fast and good you can build, in merely 5 hours. I think I needed that amount of time just for the main drill, lol.

Great video for a cool little forklift. And I think the first forklift that could do a burnout?

Good job cramming all that stuff in there.
