shadow_elenter Posted August 28, 2018 Posted August 28, 2018 1. 3D DIZZY Well here ya go lads! LINK TO BUILD TOPIC All things together, I'm quite pleased with how it all turned out! It got WAY bigger than I originally intended, but that's what you get when you go with technic figure scale I guess Getting something THIS big and heavy to move fast and fluently with LEGO was a huge technical challenge! I must have build and rebuilt the drive system 5 times before it was strong enough and another 5 times before it stopped destroying gears! LBH 90x59x47 CM and weighs 7.2KG LBH 54x24x19 INCH and weighs 15.8 pounds In total I used: 14 motors: 5X PF-XLmotors 6x PF-L motor 1x PF-M motor 1x PF-servo motor 1x 9v micro motor 4x PF-lights 5x SBrick's 5x PF battery boxes
m00se Posted August 28, 2018 Posted August 28, 2018 2. EXPLORER Build topic Materials used: about 1/3 to 1/2 of a 42055 set. The single XL motor drives the center module as well as a linear actuator in the middle. The 'wheel' is driven indirectly by a gear against the lower yellow circle.
tkel86 Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 3. DROP TOWER (TOPIC) The tower is fully automatic, it operates with 2 motors, 1 M and 1 XL, it uses an old Pole Reversing Switch (970653-1) to toggle rotation. It has two modules one support and one with the chairs, the first serves to raise the second as well as to alternate the rotations, the second will rotate as it rises and is in free fall when it reaches the top. Inside the towers there is a set of counterweights that are triggered during freefall to soften it. The rotation alteration automatically deactivates the opening and closing of the doors. The cycle repeats indefinitely.
Akbalder Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 4. Dance Build topic It's my first MOC / C model / Lego contest. C model of 42055 Bucket Wheel Excavator It is inspired by this ride. The structure and each branch rotate. The seats rotate thanks to the centrifugal force: the weight on the back of the seats and the inclination of the ride varies the rotation speed. The direction rotation of the seats can even change.
Erik Leppen Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 5. Excalibur Excalibur is a Top Spin ride, inspired by Excalibur at Walibi Holland, but with independent arms. Functions: Motorized rotation of left swingarm (left swingarm has a hinge to accomodate free movement of all three motorized functions) Motorized rotation of right swingarm (independent) Motorized rotation of the bench along its axis Manual raising and lowering of the movable floor, entrance and exit Manual opening and closing of the gates and restraints (coupled if the movable floor is raised) All 5 functions, and the battery switch, are opareted from the front operator panel 100.00% pure Lego. No SBricks, rubber bands etc. See also the discussion topic:
Seasider Posted September 2, 2018 Posted September 2, 2018 6. The WHIP At the start of this competition I knew exactly what I wanted to build, a Technic Figure scaled version of a ride I loved as a kid ... The American Whip. The original opened in 1914 at Coney Island, NY, mine was in the seaside town I grew up in. Tech Specs: Operated by an IR Speed Remote driving Unimog wheels powered by 2 x PF XL motors It’s a staggering 161 studs long by 73 studs wide, excluding the control booth! 7 numbered cars for ultimate enjoyment Thread: Enjoy, Seasider
BrickbyBrickTechnic Posted September 3, 2018 Posted September 3, 2018 7. DOUBLE DISTORTION Enter the realm of red and black with DOUBLE DISTORTION! This ride is one for real thrill-seekers. It combines rotation, up and down motion, and a thrilling orientation change. The mechanism is all controlled by a single motor, which controls more than just rotational motion. There is a multi-directional gearbox which controls the up-down motion of the arms. As well, this model is a C model of 42043. It uses about 1700 parts or around 60% of the set's parts. It's a break from 42055 I guess Enough talking: here's the video! There's an abundance of details, including a sign, a ticket-taker/operator's seat, a covered platform with a safety line, railings, and everything is minifig scale (or just about). The seats are minifig-compatible and have working restraints. More pictures: So that's my entry. I hope you enjoy and vote! BbBT P.S link to discussion topic:
mocbuild101 Posted September 5, 2018 Posted September 5, 2018 8. The Zapper An old ride, with a new twist - literally! Quick stats: Height (to top of support structure): 30 studs (24cm / 9.45") Width: 32 studs (25.6cm / 10") Depth: 34.5 studs (27.6cm / 10.86") Weight (with batteries and passengers): 1968g - yes, that really is the exact weight!

Aventador2004 Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 9. Catapultanium Might not be the best possible, but I got it done. Hopefully it still is a cool ride and had a lot of fun with it. Thanks if this gets a vote from you! Launch system Garurdrails Car Video: (Faded a lot) https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/163043-tc14-catapultanium/
HallBricks Posted September 8, 2018 Posted September 8, 2018 10. Acrophobia Topic This is a fully automated drop tower driven by only one PF L-motor. The ride with room for 12 mini figures ascend all the to the top of the more than 1 meter tall tower, waits for a few seconds and then falls freely towards the ground. This cycle will repeat until the battery box is turned off, and requires no manual input at all. I'm sorry about the color explosion. I had just about enough time to get everything to work, and didn't have time to change the colors.
aminnich Posted September 8, 2018 Posted September 8, 2018 11. Sky Wheel With little to no time left to spare, may I present my TC14 entry It is fully functional, just like the real ride!! It even works for the larger minifigures!! Thanks for reading
