Power Functions (PF) help - Need a detailed break-down
Lucio Switch replied to emilyan's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI have a couple of question to add: There is different in power erogation between the standard AA Battery box with no rechargeable battery (9V) and the rechargeable LiPo box (7.2V)? If I buy a rechargeable LiPo box it will become with a transformer for charging or I must buy it separately?

Lucio Switch replied to Lucio Switch's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingHahahaha....I agree, but my wife no!! ...and maybe you know who is the master!! Yes is mine! The cab and the front bumper are practically the same, but the chassis is totally different. Thanks!!

Lego Technic Tractor Truck
Lucio Switch replied to Lucio Switch's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingThanks a lot! I think that the pneumatic system help, in some case, to simplify the mechanics. For the red panels....unfortunately, I bought them over a year ago, and for what I remember, they wasn't cheap (compared to the gray ones). I finished the truck in January 2014, but my marriage took almost all my time untill now!!:)

Lego Technic Tractor Truck
Lucio Switch replied to Lucio Switch's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingThanks again! Like i said on youtube, if the truck is stationary for a couple of days I have to raise it from the ground, otherwise the tires are deformed!

Portal hubs - a nail in their coffin
Lucio Switch replied to Leif's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI builded one MOC with portal hub and independent suspension, . i would post a picture from mocpages...but is down...su, for now i can only link the video on youtube. This is the best solution I have found, it works, but is not very good for a crowler, and yes the geometry is all wrong!!;-)

Lego Technic Tractor Truck
Lucio Switch replied to Lucio Switch's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingTake a look at the post #23!:-) I'm struggling with myself for this, but you do not know what I'm planning to build;-)) I need pieces, a lot of pieces, and I hope to not be obligated to buy some red panel plate at 4-5€ at piece.

Lego Technic Tractor Truck
Lucio Switch replied to Lucio Switch's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingYou are right at all, and i know, but I leaned to the hope that a motor under stress, more than another, reduce his RPM. For now all my PF motors are still working and if one burns...I will buy another one!!;-)) For instructions, I answered a to a similar question little more up!

Lego Technic Tractor Truck
Lucio Switch replied to Lucio Switch's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI started using Bricksmith only a couple of weeks ago, so until then, I never had digitized versions of my MOCs and therefore instructions. But, I think, I will take time and will do at least the digital file, since shortly I will have to take it apart. I want to keep the memory of how I built since mine is terrible!!;-) But, I don't promise anything!;-)

Lego Technic Tractor Truck
Lucio Switch replied to Lucio Switch's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI'd like to continue in Italian, but I think it is more just in English so everyone can read. Each motor, via a pair of Knob gear, is connected to a single wheel, and them are not interconnected, so, in the absence of a differential, have the ability to spin at different speeds. Thanks! I've noticed just now ... I think a lot is due to the different angle of the light over the pieces, in reality there are not too much differences.

Lucio Switch replied to Lucio Switch's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingNon 'preoccuparti, se nessuno dice ciò che è sbagliato o non è piaciuto è più difficile migliorare le proprie competenze. Posso dire che, come ho scritto su mocpages, è ispirato, non una copia esatta (so che suonerà come una buona scusa), pertanto molti particolari non risultano uguali.

Lego Technic Tractor Truck
Lucio Switch replied to Lucio Switch's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingThanks!! I forgot to do a video of hitching and unhitching phase, and unfortunately i have dismounted the trailer, I can say that it was a bit tricky for the squared conformation of the hook, I had to be very precise, and i had to connect and disconnect the pneumatic tube manually. I have put the racing truck on the trailer why it's the only other thing already assembled, the ground clearance of the yellow one is too small for uploading with RC control...a couple of week ago, I try to upload the Volvo front loader...it works good, but it's in a too small scale (i never thought of saying this :)) and it doesn't look good.

Lego Technic Tractor Truck
Lucio Switch replied to Lucio Switch's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingIts hard to describe all the sistem in particular, but in principle, for the conformation of the fifth wheel, the trailer hook needs to be a 2x4 "L" beam (as showed in the video) and it can't turn when it is locked, so i have connected the beam to a turntable mounted on the trailer ... from there a bit of gears to give a correct ratio and to have the movement longitudinal, then i use different length steering arm for give different steering angle.
