Foton Posted June 12, 2018 Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) I would like to build something like this crane. Remotelly controlled. With camera in cabin. Inspiration is similar video simulator in visitors centra at Maasvlakte || (Rotterdam). Basic concept: control center: Tablet for view + (tablet for control with SBRICK |or| Mindstorm cube with joysticks builded on motors ) crane: 3 axes of movement + un/lock container (similiar to real one Twistlock) , PF or Mindstorm motors + Sbrick/Mindstorm cube For now I have working twistlock. And trying to figure out how move it from above by string, so no motor will be on locking frame. See pictures in G album https://photos.app.goo.gl/MFoRXg1i62n1gXPd7.

Nebulaire Posted June 12, 2018 Posted June 12, 2018 Nice idea for the twist lock. You should built your crane on the scale of the mack, that's what I'm doing. Quote
Foton Posted June 12, 2018 Author Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) @Aventador2004 I already see these two, each one have some highlites. @Nebulaire Too big, I do not have place/time/money/parts for such scale. Maybe version 2 :-) Thanks for tips from @DavSod for twistlocking by string. See his crane. Edited June 12, 2018 by Foton Quote
