Posted April 21, 20168 yr Hi to everybody! It's been a while from my last MOC...a year and 1 day to be precise ..well, how some of you already knew, the last year I bought and refurbished a home and that involved much of my free time. Now that the home is almost finished (I doubt that it ever will), a baby is coming ...that's mean that I'm planning to do instructions, but I don't know when. Now, that's my new MOC. It's a Dump truck 8x8. The scale is about 1:11. It was inspired by the Iveco Trakker (more than anything else to derive the dimensions), but the front grid ended to be more a beheaded batman logo. It's 8 wheels drive, moved by 4XL Motors connected to the wheels via a driveline, it has a differential per axle. 2 XL Motors drive the 1st and the 2nd axle and the other 2 drive the 3rd and 4th axles. This allow to have a virtual central diff and stress a bit less the drivetrain since the torque is splitted. A fake 6-inline engine is connected to the driveline of the 1st and 2nd axles. The 1st and the 2nd are steering axles via 2 PF Servo motors (one for each axle), with different turning radius and working steering wheel. The suspensions system consists in 4 live axles. Shock absorbers for the 1st and 2nd axles, with an anti-roll bar for the 1st axle, leaf springs for the 3rd and 4th. The Pneumatic system consists in 2 small pump driven by an L motor, that provide compressed air for tilting the cab, elevate the bed and to an hypothetical trailer. The lightening system consist in 4 PF Led, 2 in the front and 2 in the back for the headlights (and 2 extension wires). In the back there is a connector where is possible to connect lights of a trailer. There is even a winch in the front moved by an L Motor. It uses 2 SBrick that control everything, with the exeption of tilting the cab and providing compressed air to the trailer, that are actuated manually. It has openable doors (manually) that allow access to detailed interiors of the cab and it has a trailer coupling. The truck itself is built to be a base for several future MOC/MOD. In fact, tipping bed system a part, everything is contained in the chassis or in the side tanks. Weight and dimensions: Length: 93 studs (74.4 cm) Width: 29 studs (23.2 cm) (without mirrors) Height: 42 studs (33.6 cm) (without antennas) Weight: 6 Kg PF elements: 4 XL Motors for drive. 3 Servo Motors, 2 for steering and 1 for the tipping bed pneumatic valve. 2 L Motors, 1 for the pneumatic pump and 1 for the winch. 4 Led, 2 in the front and 2 in the back. 2 Li-Po battery. 2 SBrick. 4 20cm extension cables. 1 50cm extension cables. Pneumatic elements: 3 new long pneumatic cylinders 2 new small pneumatic pumps 3 pneumatic valves 2 M pneumatic cylinders A video is coming soon For more pics see: https://www.flickr.c...157667401525315 I hope you like it!

April 21, 20168 yr *oh2* *oh2* Awesome!!!!! Now the questions are: how many pieces does it have, is it bigger than the ACT, which one would you recommend to build: THIS or the ACT? (I think this is obvious for me)
April 21, 20168 yr It's nice, but why do you always build so small? He likes seeing you part with lots of cash.
April 21, 20168 yr Author Super truck. You can expect to find it in the HOF soon. Thanks a lot! It's a honor! It's nice, but why do you always build so small? Probably to compensate my penis dimensions. *oh2* *oh2* Awesome!!!!! Now the questions are: how many pieces does it have, is it bigger than the ACT, which one would you recommend to build: THIS or the ACT? (I think this is obvious for me) I don't know, but I think less parts than the ACT....but the ACT has already instructions...you have to wait a bit (sarcasm) for this one.
April 21, 20168 yr OMG. I know now, where my 58 Gray panels will be, after build of Madocca's Wing Body Truck.
April 21, 20168 yr WOW! Every time you post something I am blown out of the water. When can we expect the video? Does it come in black? Edited April 21, 20168 yr by JJ2
April 21, 20168 yr Batman called. He wants his dump truck back. Lol.... But seriously, great job. See my full comments on mocpages post
April 21, 20168 yr Amazing truck! Just wow! Great work, simply perfect suspension, nice exterior. Now this is the first MOC in my to-mod-list :) Lucio, you always know how to surprise every kind of builders)
April 21, 20168 yr As allway AMAZING..!!! Very nice. And for so far as i can see it is about the same scale as the ACT and the ITT. I cant wait to get the instructions of that truck...
April 21, 20168 yr I had to look twice just to realize - this is not simply another Arocs C-model, a few more Arocs had to be sacrificed for this one for sure ! I like how you use PF for such big scale. This clean and expressive style, everything looks rationally placed :thumbup: . I only miss a more realistic grid. Please do a video with some "heavy" load !
April 21, 20168 yr That's large) Incredible. Will be nice to see it side by side with Arocs. I'd like to see how suspension works, is it possible? Edited April 21, 20168 yr by Victor Imaginator
April 21, 20168 yr This is an creation that speeks for yourself. No coment is neded i think. Truly a masterpiece.
April 21, 20168 yr I thought it was a digital build. Fantastic work, I love your large scale building and your presentation is great. I would have liked to see those pneumatics connected together pushing up that tipping bed as one large pneumatic. H
April 21, 20168 yr I already commented this at MOCpages...but better twice then once... :laugh: I really love the presentation on this one! It is extremely impressive...se well done!!! Nice to see it is 8x8 and loaded with functions... And a video...so cool! I'll check it right away... Edited April 21, 20168 yr by 2LegoOrNot2Lego...
April 21, 20168 yr I like the lifting mechanism and of course the truck, it is tall for the large suspension but it seems to me 1 or 2 studs width.
April 21, 20168 yr If it just would be big, than I would say: well, nice... nice... With all the functions, I say: :thumbup:
April 21, 20168 yr Wow, my compliments. Nice video as well. Towing the Volkswagen bus shows the actual size of the truck! I'm looking forward to the instructions!
