timslegos Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 The best video review of 41999;) Coming for the creator of the awesome set this means a lot! Thank you rm8! tim Quote
Jim Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Very nice video Tim and excellent enhancements!! Quote
JM1971 Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 so the gear swap on the motors was not that great. I didn't even have enought torque for flat carpet at that point. I am wondering if someone could share some ideas on how to speed it up without sacrificing torque? Or maybe putting in a 2-speed gearbox so it can be switched from high mode to low mode as needed? The XL motors is the only way I can think of doing that. Quote
crazy_1993 Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 In case anyone wants to play with LDD model, here's my LXF: LXF file Awesome, thanks that will help me convert my latest mod of my 41999 to LDD. When I do finally dismantle it, I want it digitally recorded. I will be posting pictures of it soon... Quote
750ACE Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 You are so mad slamming those doors and switches. Haha nice video anyways. Quote
kevman Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 Does anyone have a some pictures of how they put xl-motors for the wheels ? IS the xl motor larger then the standard motor ? Quote
cgg199 Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 The XL motors are much bigger than the standard L motors. If you search on Google, you will be able to find XL motor mods for 9398 which has exactly the same axles, so will be the same modifications. Quote
skriblez Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 My boss is just pimped with extra lights so far. Quote
crazy_1993 Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 So here it is, my first mod for the 41999. Not sure if you can really call it a mod, it's more of a... thing. Anyway, maybe some people remember the Enforcer, my entry for the Technic competition which came second to rm88's Boss. It was only a matter of time before I decided to try to recreate it using the 41999 so I did. However I added a few 'modifications' using parts from my 8455 backhoe loader. Firstly, an excavator bucket has been added to the front bumper for a more 'evil' appearance. Secondly, a wheel powered cannon has been mounted in the rear bed. It can be raised, lowered and ammo can be fed by pneumatics and the cannon is just two rapidly spinning wheels powered by a geared up M motor with a clutch gear to stop me blowing up the motor in the event of a jam. So here it is, I like to call it the 'Boss-forcer Devastator'. Sorry about the poor image quality, hopefully I'll get a video sorted soon. Quote

crazy_1993 Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) OK so here they are, the videos showcasing my "Boss-forcer Devastator" mod: Part 1 Part 2 Enjoy! Edited August 28, 2013 by crazy_1993 Quote
JM1971 Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 (edited) VIDEO XL Motors and geared up ... http://www.flickr.co...N08/9622106504/ I don't recommend doing this because the motors limit suspension travel and the torque from the xl motors distorts the structure a little, but it is fun :) Edited August 29, 2013 by JM1971 Quote
vladtheimpaler Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 It does remind me of death race! I think it reminds more of "cars" from Mad Max 2! Quote

Rockbrick Posted September 2, 2013 Posted September 2, 2013 Ok so originally it was a 9398 and not a 41999 - but here's Retro-Boss coming to say 'Hello' Planning on motorising the popup lights - dual function it with a winch and add the original v4 engine in it and power it from the drive-train some how (oh and get those blue seats back in too) Quote

firetech Posted September 2, 2013 Posted September 2, 2013 I like to call it the 'Boss-forcer Devastator'. Looks like it's taken straight from Carmageddon. Quote
