Hi everybody,

I want to present you my planned TC6 Entry:

A remote controlled Dumptruck with 4 axles.

The functions are:

- Driving the rear wheels with a XL-Motor

- Steering the two front wheels with a Servo-Motor

- Cabin tilt with a M-Motor

- Tilting dump bed with 2 LAs over a L-Motor (or maybe XL-Motor)

- Open the doors (manual)

All motorized functions are controlled by 2 IR-Receiver and 2 Remotes.

This model isn´t based on an real model, it should represent a standard European dumptruck.

My design of the cabin is inspired by 8258, but I choose a different color scheme.

Here are a few screenshot of my current project in LDD:

Thanks nerdsforprez. A Mercedes is an European Truck, so this is possible ;)

Thanks OG_technic. I planned to use 6 flat yellow panels for the dump bed.

In the body there are 4 other flat yellow panels. So I need 10 panels in total.

Thanks Coola1.

Unfortunaly I don't have the needed parts for supspension, so I never planned to use suspension. But I think it must be possible to fit suspension into this model.

Thanks OG_technic. I think I should remove all the stickers, then it should look better.
