This is pure genius! I love how you implement the features and "hide" the levers in the framework.

I will definitely test it myself. Thanks for sharing :sweet:

Okay that makes perfect sense now. very nice solution! Do you think the 24t gear will be able to handle a lot of force?

I think not.

i have used the 24 tooth crown gear only to make the gearing so simple as possible, to make the concept more clear. In my logging truck i use three 8tooth to get the same effect.

is it this what you want?

Nicely done! The submarine alternate model of 8480 does exactly the same thing in the gearbox. The motor drives a single direction, but you can mechanically reverse the direction of the loading ramp and nose hatch.

really? then i know whre my idea come from.

update: first i had only want to implement the stabilizers. till then the gearbox was simple, now it is a labyrinth of gears and axles.

The first thing I did was to see the 8480 :laugh:, not labyrinth at all, good work. We have to make a post about what colours of bricks are frequently use in our MOCs... my mania is try to use same color all the work, obviously it isn´t your case :laugh:.

the same color on the whole moc? this would give a black hole :laugh:

by the way, mudguard or not?

I want to say frame one colour, body another... About mudguards better without them, they are too bigs for the scale of the truck in my opinion.

I'm liking the progress! Are the rear axles your tandem arrangement? I'd say yes to the mud guards. Is there gonna be a trailer then?

  • Author

hm, it seems that mudguards have many fans.

@ sam42 yes it is my tandem axle, and yes it will have a trailer with the self steering system

@ jorgepoesi when it is finished, the it will hopefully look clean.

I suspected as much, after all, the truck with no trailer would be a little pointless, it'll look good with the trailer sat on the back..

yes, without a trailer the crane should be placed behind the rear axles, and then it would need a trailer too.

Wow that is a lot of gears in a small area. Nice work. And i am a fan of the mudguards to.

First of all, you haven't included enough gears :tongue:. Second of all, your mudguards should be you logo, your symbol, something that makes us say "its efferman." Beautiful!!

  • Author

have you started on the trailer?

tim

not yet. first i have to decide where i place the hand of god. flashing lights, exhaust pipes or a boring gear on the roof. and it would be nice if the lipo accu would look like cylindric fuel tank. but it isnt, so it must get his place in the cab.

How long do you think it will be?

it will be roundabout 55cm long
