Finally all functions are together in one Video. Most of them are working in a proper Way, only 1.5- 1.7 rpm in rotation seem finally a little bit fast..

 

I am completely astounded at the complexity of this MOC! Well done, this is an amazing achievement. While the unfolding operation may be a complicated process, I’m sure that is true to real life as well. In my opinion, 400g lifting capacity is more than enough - the main event for me is the unfolding, and the lifting/slewing capacity is plenty for playability. The performance is really stunning with all of the complex geometry and linkages.
 

From the Flickr photos, it looks like there’s an LXF for this model. Will you be releasing it? I’d love to incorporate some of your solutions into future models of mine.

Interesting.

Did anyone have success in feeding a powered up set with a buwizz? 

I mean, the motors can be connected with an adapter, but what about the servo?

There are some stud.io files, but they are far away from showing the actual status. The rope routing is missing too.

Fantastic, thanks for sharing!

Looking a bit like a MAN tgs truck. Is it a 8x8? Or a 8x4? (Just saw the driveshaft, so it’s a 8x8) Looking good so far!

Edited October 25, 2020 by legotechnicus
Saw the answer to my own question

[efferman]

It will be a fully suspended 8x8.

Actually i make rebuild of my wrecker, first with a tgx cab from @HUWI, but yesterday i sa a picture of the 2021 tgs. So i try it now.

Forgot something.

MAN truck is such a delight to drive in real life.. Glad to see more MAN trucks being moc'ed! 

If you're taking any suggestions, i'd love to see the adjustable suspension on a MAN truck. 
(If parked on a hill, you can straighten the body so u don't have to push pallets in a hill.)

Airride?

enough progress for today

[Mechbuilds]

Actual working airride would be amazing on lego. Even a mechanical one would be cool. 

[efferman]

Not on this truck, and on other trucks it is maybe a bit unneccessary overcomplicated.

[HUWI]

It was an honor for me to rebuild and change things on Effe's Rotator. When my TGX was finished i had the idea to combine it with the rotator.

Now i have my own rotator an during the inspection of Effe's Scania i made the digital version,m so Effe could create something new with my knowledge of the test drives.

 

[efferman]

Oh yes, this was very helpfull. And much better than making models for a big company and couldnt talk about it.

[efferman]

The Easy Thing is done, the hard part on the flaps is still to do.

edit:

easier than thought.

Not sure, but something feels wrong.

[HUWI]

The Door is too short. It must be 9 Studs long.

 

[Jundis]

The lower part of the cab looks so good!

The grill however could be smoother.. maybe wait for the black 3x7 panel in in the new grave digger model? The 3L half stud liftarms should be attachable to get the 8 stud wide front :-)

With 9 studs it would be to long. On the 2021 tgs it stops before the middle of the tire.

7 studs are unfortunately to long.

Actually math is everything when building representative MOC; starting with tire overall diameter...

Michael, I see  great TGS on its way

I know the feeling... optimization is not an easy game...

[efferman]

indeed!

old on the left, newer version on the right

[steph77]

Maybe i am late at the party...

Version 2 is better IMO.

What i do not like (and i test it already on my own model) is the red fenders.

The TGS has a flat lateral surface.

Not sure it is the good choice for this one.
