42043 Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3245
Ngoc Nguyen replied to AndroTech's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingIt's just an exaggeration intended to deliver some light humor. At least I did think I didn't have to disassemble the crane.

Ngoc Nguyen replied to AndroTech's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI have just compared the crane sections in the instructions for the A-model and the B-model, and with deep regret I would like to inform you folks that the crane, especially the base of the crane, is built differently in two models. Which means farewell to the thought of not having to dissemble the crane when moving from one model to another. I haven't checked the cabin yet. Let's just pray both cabins are identical.

42043 Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3245
Ngoc Nguyen replied to AndroTech's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingWhat blow away about the B-model after I looked at the instruction: - It still retains 3 motorized functions and 4 pneumatic functions. Usually a B-model has less functions than an A-model, so as far as I know, this makes the 42043 B-model the only model so far that has the same number of functions as the A-model! (correct me if I'm wrong). Also probably the B-model with most number of functions. - 1 spare wheel for the truck and 1 spare wheel for the trailer. I haven't seen a model with a spare wheel before. Very realistic! - Creative reuse of parts. The clamshell bucket becomes the cover for the spare wheel. The two 6-hole disks in the two front wheels becomes the attachment disks between the truck and the trailer. The mini turntable between the two rear wheels become the turntable to rotate the basket of the crane. - Most of all, the outriggers! When I first saw it in the back of the box I thought I had to manually push the outrigger down. But in fact, as you guys can see in the latest designer video, they lower down by themselves. This happen by lowering the whole racks using the motorized gears. When the outriggers are still inside the racks, the motorized gears will just push them out of the racks. But when the outriggers are all out, the gears can keep running and push one end of the racks down to the ground. Bloody amazing!
