In the YouTube video Markus points at them briefly. My impression was they looked printed (they also didn't move or wiggle), so my take is: decorative only. Quote
Dylan M Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 With new control hub , its the End of gearbox ( 1motor = multiple functions) ? Quote
MikeTwo9398 Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 Or just the start of a new generaties of controlled gearboxes. New motors can be used as a servo motor. Quote

No. Lego is working on a "dumb" battery box for use with the be motors. The reason why is to lower the price point so you can have range at a power functions price point. The cost of the controller and 4 motors is high thus lower units sold. So to be cover costs of development you need to sell more. Quote
Tomas TECHNIC Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 I really like the Liebherr R9800 so I decided to build it myself. My version has got six functions (all powered by PF elements) I will be very happy if you look on my video on YouTube. Lego Liebherr R 9800 Quote
Bartybum Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 @Tomas TECHNIC Save for the multicolour treads, it's quite nice. I really like how the brick-built shoulder LAs operate. Your MOC is a testament to just how enormous the actual set is gonna be Quote
1gor Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 @Tomas TECHNIC first of all welcome to eurobricks forum, your Moc looks very nice, perhaps you should start your own topic. Quote
Maaboo the Witch Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 @Tomas TECHNIC, nice job! Quite a beast. Quote
knotian Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 Just noticed, and will most assuredly the use of racks in lieu of actuators. Quote

CP5670 Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 I like where they going with these sets that are clearly targeted towards AFOLs. I'll probably pass on this one though. Even aside from the sky high price, I prefer sets with interesting gearing and mechanics like 8043 as opposed to just having everything run off its own motor, which is what they seem to be doing here. The Control+ system looks really nice though, as do the long linear actuators. Quote
CSX9992 Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 Will the control app come out the same day as liebherr? Quote

Very handy indeed, but only if you plan their use in advance... I've tried to use them on the Porsche to hold a wire from front to rear under the chassis, but it's quite a bad fit: in that usecase, the axle connector would need to be parallel instead of perpendicular.

ScaleCarModels Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 I can't wait for this beast of a lego set to come out. It's gonna be expensive but I love large scale construction equipment. Real life and in scale model form it's all awesome to me. It'll be interesting to see mods and alternate builds built from this set. Looks like a bunch of useful parts if someone decided to build a c model. I'm not worried about any flaws regarding the powered elements. My plan is to build it as a display piece. Quote
CSX9992 Posted July 3, 2019 Posted July 3, 2019 I am curious will liebherr have the standard battery pack or a usb charging option Quote
