Scoar Sonander Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Hopefully they increase gear reduction! 42099's torque was really dismal... Especially with extra weight! Quote

Especially with extra weight! 42099 was tuned for speed. With the proper gear reduction it had actually more power to climb than the high center of gravity did allow. Quote
Jundis Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 @HectorMB and @Void_S already mentioned best solution: A gearbox like in 42114 with 4 gears and lowest gear with fixed diffs. 42114 climbs better than 42099 ;-) Quote

paul_delahaye Posted April 2, 2021 Posted April 2, 2021 We are looking at a Green and White remake of the 42070 which was not a great seller from memory, just modernised for Control+ and a license to increase the price a bit more. mmmmmm not even a crane in sight. We always live in hope these prelim images are not the final thing....but too often they are close to reality. American Tow Truck could be the star of the technic lineup this year. Quote
Mantarri Posted April 2, 2021 Posted April 2, 2021 As long as the price is right, it looks like an interesting parts pack potentially to me. If it really does have CLAAS tires sized for the medium rim, then it opens up proper-looking tractors, backhoes, and a nice scale for offroad vehicles, skidders, and other such things. Quote

This is also how it looks to me right now. If the price is right and those wheels are sized about 80mm roughly, then it'll be a very tempting parts pack, even more so if it's using planetary reduction hubs and the newer diffs.

It looks like most of mentioned is included (like 81.6 tires), but left wait for official images to be sure. Quote
Scoar Sonander Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 This is another time when TLG has left the side of motors wide open. you would think they would use some liftarms or panels to block it up. Maybe they could've use the new 7 x 3 panels. That would've made the parts pack even more tempting. Sometime TLG really bamboozles me... Quote
1gor Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 Well you can not have everything. For me personally it is great to have new tractor tires... Quote

Well, with planetary hubs I see no real necessity to use new ("RC") differentials. For sure, it would be great to have them (and I really hope) but let's keep in mind as the drivetrain is speeded-up in 5.5 times it will be less loaded in 5.5 times too. So the new differentials are purposed for a heavy-duty application will bring no gain here... Quote
LvdH Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 Another photo got leaked. It really looks like these tires fit a smaller size wheel than 42054. Same wheel as the F&F Dodge. Quote

Scoar, we have had few instances in several topics about you not reading posts. Please take some time and do read previous posts before you post in a topic. Again, do not ask for pictures in this thread. They are online. Find them there or ask for them via PM from someone who has them. Quote
Akbalder Posted April 4, 2021 Posted April 4, 2021 It doesn't seem to be a finished model. For example, the green part on the hood doesn't look like the real vehicle. Quote
