[TC17] War Trike

[shadow_elenter]

Okay, I'm in.

I started building a trike because there's enough 4 wheeled cars already. 
As always I'll be going technic figure scale.
The current setup is not working well so I expect it to change... A LOT  but here's a first glance:

There's already al lot of participants in this contest and I'm curious to see what people make of it all!

Glad to someone else doing a vehicle that doesn't have 4 wheels. It looks pretty good so far. I assume there are two L-motors for drive and one for steering? No suspension?

You assumed correctly and you were right about the suspension at first, but that has been fixed since:

It's quite fast and I added all-wheel steering so it turns on a dime!

It look like a shark on wheels! I'm loving it!

[Seasider]

Well I didn't expect that ... I thought the wheel would be at the front ... but I'm loving the look of it, almost lizard like I'd add

Very cool! Nice invention.

[LEGO Train 12 Volts]

Totally cool!

I like those big wheels and the sleek shape

The chains are the icing on the cake! 

[shadow_elenter]

Thanks you all! 

Basically it's done!

I might change some things but I intend to to start filming soon.

In a MAD MAX world the name of the game is taking resources (without asking ) to survive.
This reverse trike has been modified to do just that!  Specifically It's outfitted to board, capture and stop anything from lone wasteland travelers to convoy's and big trucks like "the war rig".

Edit:  Photos were moved to post below.

Oh, so many attachments... Looks really good. 

I like the minelayer (I built similar device for my entry too), how is it operated? Some button or knob?

Thanks, I see now.

Very impressive model. You don't have any problems raising the "bridge"? It seems like the mini LA's might have a hard time. 

 

Very curious to see it all in action.

[shadow_elenter]

Thank you!

Nope, The mini LA's hold up just fine. the bridge is not that heavy actually.

In the Mad Max world where resources are scarce hunting down other survivors is a great way to get by?.

There are 15 functions in total:
1  Driving

2  steering

3  missiles

4  harpoon turret turning

5  harpoon turret tilting

6  harpoon shooting

7  harpoon winch

8  harpoon winch neutral

9  grenades

10 ladder turret turning

11 ladder turret tilting

12 mounted shotguns

13 catapult

14 mines

15 tire spikes

Very nice playability! Nice build. Lots of thought gone into this 

I hope our mad max worlds are antipodal to each other, otherwise I hope you can take some fish for trade of sparing my fishing warrior

Thank you 
You my friend, are in the clear!
Steeling from a humble unarmed fisherman is just bad karma. I'm after the degenerates of the wastelands

wow !
