wg100 Posted August 5, 2020 Posted August 5, 2020 (edited) ?♂️ now why didn't I think of that?! Thanks!! Edit: I've just ordered all the parts from Bricklink/Lego - in quite a few cases, the parts from Lego were cheaper than Bricklink! Edited August 5, 2020 by wg100 Quote
anyUser Posted August 5, 2020 Posted August 5, 2020 Wow, the building process is really one of the better recent models. It has come together nicely so far: Included MODs: - Huw's fix on the 8:8:8 transmission - single clutch to prevent stress by rubber band, cf.

(I have used a #3482 wheel hub) - single front wheel on a rotable mount for better steering on ground Quote

The stock design allows for a 12mm maximum wheel radius. I don't have 6 wheels the same size that small, and my current interim solution has the plane hang backward a bit. I've got about 8 tires at 13mm radius, but obviously those don't fit. I'm also probably going to do a lot of picking at colours before I post photos. Quote
dave88 Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 Hi, Do you have a list of the part numbers and numbers needed to fix? I would like to start building mine. Thanks Quote

With pleasure - On Step 81.3 on page 72 replace the 5L beam by this plus a suitable 2L beam to fix the 5L axle in step 81.6. The mount is assembled from these parts: As the deployed wheel is not 'perpendicular' to the surface you will notice a small 'nag' (bump) any time the wheel turns by 180°. Quote
LvdH Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 Apologies if it has already been said, but you can order the Osprey parts from LEGO Bricks and pieces. Yes, including the exclusive ones. You just have to search for the part number. Quote

The new tapered panels should be available though. I didn't check for the recolours of older part types. Quote

I have read in another topic they pulled the parts and cancelled the orders, but a friend of mine told me that his order with those parts have been shipped earlier this week. Quote
tismabrick Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 Got my parts yesterday. Now I have all parts except the blades. Quote
Ngoc Nguyen Posted September 11, 2020 Author Posted September 11, 2020 I added the list of remaining parts into the first post. This list is basically Master list excluding the DBG and Orange parts. Quote
Ngoc Nguyen Posted September 11, 2020 Author Posted September 11, 2020 I put 3 lists into Bricklink, and the tentative cost for parts alone is 216 EUR Quote
