steyin Posted August 21, 2012 Posted August 21, 2012 Thanks everyone, glad you like it. Instructions are comming, I just need some time. The 3d text at the start off the video is made with wax 2.0, a great free video editor. Great build, can't wait for this, thanks a lot man! Quote

Polo-Freak Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 this they Parts are left. normal? so many black pins left? Quote
DLuders Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 (edited) this they Parts are left. normal? so many black pins left? I kept my extra parts for the 9398 "A" Model in a plastic bag, and had a slightly different batch than you. I had: 4 ea. Light Bluish Gray Technic Half Bushes 2 ea. Light Bluish Gray Technic Bushes 2 ea. Red Technic Bushes 6 ea. Black Technic Pins With Friction 1 ea. Light Bluish Gray Technic Pin Without Friction 2 ea. Dark Bluish Gray Technic 3/4 Pins 1 ea. Light Bluish Gray Technic 1/2 Pin 1 ea. Blue Technic 1/2 Pin 1 ea. Tan 12-tooth Technic Bevel Gear 1 ea. Trans Red 1x1 Round Plate 1 ea. Trans Orange 1x1 Round Plate 1 ea. Trans Clear 1x1 Round Plate If your model OPERATES well, I would not worry about the differing "extra" parts. Edited September 2, 2012 by DLuders Quote
TechnicNoob Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 For those of you who like something with more speed, you can build this with only the parts from the 9398: Wow Jovel this model you made is so good. Just wondering why this is faster than the main 9398 model. p.s Once I get 9398 which doesn't come out for another couple of weeks cause I live in Australia I will build this model that you made if Instructions are available Quote
z3_2drive Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 its faster because the 9398 is geared down 3 times welcome to the forum noob hope you like it. Quote
TechnicNoob Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 its faster because the 9398 is geared down 3 times welcome to the forum noob hope you like it. thank you it feels good to be in a community of people that love technic Quote
OzBen Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 I built mine on the weekend and haven't stopped playing with it, the aftermarket tyres are definitely the way to go. Its certainly a good model to modify and try different things with, a real technic learning set i reckon TechnicNoob, I'm an Aussie also, Bricklink is my friend LOL Quote
davidmull Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 I have to say I'm bored of my crawler already,I was looking forward to it for so long but I just don't seem to have the interest in it like I had with 8110 :( Had anyone built the b model yet as it looks meaner I think :) Quote
AVCampos Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 So now it's time for you to tear it apart and invent something with the pieces! That is the Crawler's BIG advantage over standard RC crawlers. Quote
Pat-Ard Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) David: same here... The crawler ist already covered with dust were as the Mog gets hands on every day. I'll disassemble the crawler in the next days. I'll try to add the motors to my Mog. Pat Edited September 4, 2012 by Pat-Ard Quote
DLuders Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 I built both the 9398's A-Model and B-Model (using two sets), and think that the A-Model is better balanced. The B-Model may look "meaner" but it is nose-heavy. If you are "bored" with the models, you can easily remove their Power Functions L-Motors and try them on MOCs that struggle with PF M-Motors. Or, you can give them to some kid down the street and they'll have LOTS of fun with them! Quote
sama Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 In the past couple of years (like 2), Technic sets have greatly reduced in technical complexity. I mean, compare 9398's gears and transmission with the transmission of 8110. And then compare 8110 technical complexity with 8043's crazy gearbox! The advantage with 9398 is it is more fun to "play" with then any other set. Quote
AVCampos Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 Sets go up and down in complexity more or less independently of years. For example, speaking of recent sets, the 9396 is more complex than its hierarchical equivalent, the 8109. Quote
davidmull Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 I think I'll build the b model it looks bigger and meaner :) it also reminds me of the cool off road truck on the fast and furious movie last year, do I have to remove all my stickers from the a model first? I then might build a trailer for the truck to transport my 8110 :) Has anyone got instructions for a nice lowboy trailer for 8110? Quote
DLuders Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 Has anyone got instructions for a nice lowboy trailer for 8110? Han has several nice trailers on his "Technic LEGO site of Han". Click on the various MOC links on the left side of this webpage. Quote
vwpint Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 I m impressed. LEGO made a very nice build, but only bad thing is differentials. Going to change them to knob wheels. Quote
