Awesome construction by such space! I really think on 10/10: mechanical solutions, aesthetic, size... everything is perfect. I´ve tried to replicate the steering system, but I don´t know how suspension works. How can the wheels go up / down? Impressive work!

Hi guys: Here you have my new APC armoured carrier inspired by the M577 APC from Aliens movie. This creation uses two M motors, with return-to-center mechanism on steering gears (thanks Sariel!), LED lights and IR sensor. I hope you like it. Yeah... I need a video too!

Hi: It seems that my post with Space Liner MOC has been erased? Why? Thanks! Space Liner by SFRIP, on Flickr

Thanks for your comments. I am doing some training to make a video with a decent quality. Give me a few days!

Hi again; This is my second Technic+System MOC (this was the first): a mobile crane. I have used the same scale that my previous MOC so you can put it side by side with the first: a tiny nice small family. The model has 7 functions: Steering Outriggers Crane rotation Crane elevation Boom extension Cable Sync switch (for linking cable and boom extension) The initial idea was to rebuild a kind of 8053 but in a smaller size. For this I have used 8 black Tire 37 x 18R with a very small chassis with 2 functions that are doubled at rear part and over the body. First, the steering function is applied using a HOG system on the roof of cabin (with the black Gear 20 Tooth Double Bevel). When the crane is lowered this gear is not accessible and this is why you have a black the bottom black Axle Connector at the rear. All four axles has steering function, but the ones on the front and the ones on the rear have different angles just like the 8053. The outriggers are operated using the grey Axle Connector at the rear. Also you can use two black Gear 20 Tooth Double Bevel over the chassis in the middle of the truck. The lower legs of outriggers must be deployed manually. Sorry… there's not enough space to do some Technic work there… As a detail, the outriggers are deployed from the front and rear parts, not from the middle like on the 8053. I don’t know if this works in our real life, but it’s just for aesthetic reason. The crane section has 5 Technic functions. First, the section can be rotated using two grey Axle Connectors located on each side. At the rear part you will find 3 black Axle Connectors. The middle one controls the crane elevation angle (by using the LA). The left one can extend / retract the boom. FInally, the right one controls the cable. Over the rear part you will find two Lisft Arms 1 x 3 Thin attached to a mechanism for syncing gears. When pushed in, as you extend the boom, the cable will be lowered leaving always the same distance between the hook and the edge of boom. And that's all folks! I hope you like it (some more shots)...

Thanks for your comments. I will try to make a video with all functions.

Hi guys! Here you have my latest MOC showed at Catbrick 2012. It's a blend of Technic and Model Team, in other words, a Technic chasis covered by Lego skin. The truck has 6 functions: Steering Outtriggers Crane rotation Crane elevation Boom angle Cable The steering function is operated with a Gear 12 Tooth Double Bevel at the top of the cabin. At the right part, below the crane, you will find an Axle Connector for the crane rotation function. However, the rotation doesn't reach full 360 degrees because the pneumatic connections. The outtriggers are operated by rotating the black rear Axle Connector (you will need a Gear 12 Tooth Double Bevel inserted on it) At last, the pneumatic functions. By pressing the rear bumper you will move two black big pumps that go to both switches. Each one of this controls a function: elevation and angle. Finally, there’s a red Axle Connector for the cable at the boom. I hope you like it!

Amazing vignette! It's very funny.

Very nice!

Fantastic! What a piece of work!

A very good model, I like it very much. The cabin is perfect. Regards

Great work! I like pneumatics!

Thanks for publishing my creation here! The name "Stingray" is a reference for its flat profile. Here you have some more interesting photos. I will post a set of videos ASAP. Stingray Concept Car Stingray Concept Car Stingray Concept Car Stingray Concept Car
