Inspired by Holgi's MOC my friend rr76 and I built a 1:17 scale trailer (Arocs) for overseas containers.
There are mountings for one 40', two 20' containers or one 20' bulk container in the middle of the trailer. Furthermore, the left box is free as a tool box.
The rebrickable version is controlled with a Buwizz, because the Powered Up cables are too short, this is not feasible in the conventional way.
RC functions:
- Raising and lowering the supports
- Raising and lowering the lift axle
- parking brake
- rear light
My red one is a conversion to a battery box and Sbrick, i only need a housing in DBG.
The grey prototype was build with PU, becaus the cables are to short and the PU-M motor is to expensive i used PU-PF adapters. The lights are custom LED with the Lego PU LED cable.
Currently there is a 40' container and the prototype of a bulk container, we're still working on a 20' container.
The instruction are available at rebrickable for free: https://rebrickable.com/users/Huwi/mocs/
