There is a simple way, when you have the LXF-Files from Lego Designer (LDD) or another 3D-Lego-programm-file. But you need an Rebrickable-Account. First you have to create a new part list, for the parts you already have Go to www.rebrickable.com Go to your Profil (small body icon on the top right) -> "My Parts" Click "Add A Part List" Give it a "Description" like 42055 Bucket Wheel Excavator Choose in the drop down menue "Include these parts in Build calculations" And Click "Save Details" When you have a standard Set - like the 42055 Bucket Wheel Excavator Go to "Sets" -> "Search Sets" Search for the Set, e.g.: "42055" Open the Set from the result list Then you have to find "Add to My Parts (Part out Set)" - you will find it on the bottem right over the Comments-Section Now Choose your created Part List from the drop down menue Click "Part Out Sets" When you have your own MOC or MOD with LXF or other 3D-File Go to your Profil (small body icon on the top right) -> "My Private MOCs" Go to "Add New Private MOC" Give it a Description like Bucket Wheel Excavator MOD Click "Save Details" Now you can add the parts by clicking "Import from MPD/LDR/LXF file" - you can also use the other Imports Choose your LXF-File and Click "Import" and follow the instructions When you have created the Part List: You can still add some missing parts by using "Find Parts to Add" (There you have to add it to your private MOC - which you have choose from the drop down menue) Now you can go to "My Private MOCs" and Choose your created MOC from the list Click on "Build this Private MOC" and you will get the results of the missing parts Now you can export the missing parts for example to an XML-File, which you can upload to Bricklink to order the parts. When you have done it once or twice it is a very easy an fast way to calculate the missing parts :)

Hey Gabi_GC this is an awesome MOD! Looks great :)

Hi @ImanolBB I have seen your chassis RC is like mine. Also the IR Receiver is in the same place. But there is a big problem: During rotation of the superstructure there will be a collision and you can't rotate it the whole 360 degree. What have you done to avoid the collison? There is another Problem in the way you motorzied the bucket wheel: The rotation from the L-Motor is to high, so your bucket wheel will spin very fast. You should reduce the rotation speed. I like your connection from the LA's to the motor! Sebastian

I'm thinking about it, but I'm not finished yet. I'm working on the motorized rotation of the conveyor belt - therefore I need some extra parts, but they are already ordered :) Maybe there will be made a LDD model, which i can modify ;)

The instructions are now avaiable :) https://wwwsecure.us.lego.com/de-de/service/buildinginstructions/search#?search&text=42055

Hi Guys, I'm just working to get the motors on the 42055. It is possible to build a L-motor direct to the bucket. Attached you find some pictures and videos :) Full RC 42055 by Sebastian Sedlmeier, auf Flickr
