I second this, except in my case, it's not happening only when I rotate cross axles. Often it also happens when I'm opening a palette section - it might show Icons with red exlcamation marks in warning triangles and crash right away. Honestly - LDD has become pretty much unusable for me post update, crashing every 5 minutes on average. More disturbingly, it also takes up to 3-4 minutes to start up and load a file. I've also been able to verify that it's not a big file-issue, nor a legacy version file issue, as it may happen also with new models, albeit less frequently. Honestly, WTF? Pekka MacOS 10.10

Amazing. I have the 42009 and my 7-years old likes to play with it, but in all honesty, actually playing with the base 42009 is a sore test of nerves. RGDS,

Unbelievable - I'm having a hard time to express my reaction without serially breaking the second commandment (not that I'm actually religious).

As far as I understood Sariel's video, a part of the problem is the fact that most of lego Tire/Rim assemblies are connected to whatever (cross-axle/three-peg) too close to the centre of the width of the tire, leading to that the actual pivot point is outside the tire's width centreline. Also, If I see it correctly, this problem is exacerbated whenever the tire profile is flat (such as with most super cars wheels) and less of a problem with balloon-type wheels - friction wise that is (although the problem of needing excessive space for the wheel to move within the chassis is not adressed by this). I'll have to have another look at the wheels of the 8448 and 8428 respectively...
