Zerobricks Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Also anyone noticed green engine blocks at this video: Quote
ed-orange Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 That steering from loader looks very fast and frustrating because isnt exact , I think he use train controller. No he is using normal controller. Just check this youtube channel, there is a second video available. you can also see the box. There are using 1 M motor, one L motor, one XL motor and one servo as far as I can see on the box Quote
efferman Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Nice bucket, but tbe steering seems a bit too fast Quote
Meatman Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 You know one thing that I noticed in that red truck video is the front and rear wheels really leaning inwards and outwards due to those new hubs being so loose. Also anyone noticed green engine blocks at this video: Hmm. I see that. Kind of odd. Quote
Kumbbl Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 They did use the servo for steering. Interesting. This must be for play-ability for kids. Hmm, very disappointed about this loader: seldom Seen such a crappy articulated steering but the servo is actually not appropriate for this task... And regarding the design: the old 8265 looks more balanced and therefore better... Also the even older 8439... A flagship i will pass for sure... The red truck seems promising more fun... Quote
N-4K0 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Just noticed how many red panels the truck really has. I can count 8 5x11, 2 3x11 curved, 1 maybe 2 3x11 flat, + the 2 on the hood. I will definitely get this one! Quote
paul_delahaye Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 you can also see the box. There are using 1 M motor, one L motor, one XL motor and one servo as far as I can see on the box This is interesting, a few pages back a poster was adamant it was 2 L motors, 1 XL and a Servo, This is going to be a great Power Functions parts pack if nothing else.

Milan Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Steering and driving on loader are unrealistically fast. So fast it look ridiculous. Bucket is nice. Quote
efferman Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Lifting the bucket is in opposite to the steering very slow. Very dissappointing Quote
Interceptor Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) I defenitely like the new Volvo frontloader flagship, it is a PF paradise. The new bucket and those wheels are welcome. Also anyone noticed green engine blocks at this video Yes, and this green fake engine really pumps up this modell. Edited January 28, 2014 by Interceptor Quote
Technic Gearhead Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Lifting the bucket is in opposite to the steering very slow. Very dissappointing Dokludi already has that fixed! Probably. Quote
jantjeuh Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Things can still change. Otherwise, just wait for Jurgen's Ultimate 42030 Edited January 28, 2014 by jantjeuh Quote

The red truck seems promising more fun... +1 absolutely, i expected much smoother and more realistic scaled look, especially, if we take a look at on 8043 an 8258... i will probably pass, but the red truck looks good! But it is still a front loader... maybe dressing it up, fill the gaps, reconstruct... will see. Bulldozer is still a potential buy. :) Edited January 28, 2014 by agrof Quote
efferman Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Dokludi already has that fixed! Probably. My loader do many things better, but the bucket an the xl makes it a must buy. Quote
zux Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Pick up doesn't look very good aestetically - good base for mods. I like the huge amount of red panels. Also anyone noticed green engine blocks at this video: Must be VOLVO uses green colored engines Quote
jantjeuh Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) My loader do many things better, but the bucket an the xl makes it a must buy. Bucket, yellow hubs, XL, L, servo, green engine parts, all of those together make this a must buy I think they will improve the bucket lift and curl speeds in the meanwhile. Servo also needs to be toned down, that fast steering looks ridiculous. Edited January 28, 2014 by jantjeuh Quote
rm8 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Red truck was inspired by Ugly bada$$:) Edited January 28, 2014 by rm8 Quote
Lakop Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I love that truck. I've got loads of red, except for panels, so i'll be looking out for it. H Quote
Meatman Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Pick up doesn't look very good aestetically - good base for mods. I like the huge amount of red panels. Must be VOLVO uses green colored engines That means they will be a licensed part, thus unavailable for purchase. Quote
Rishab N Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I really like the loader although i must agree that the steering is jerky. I'm not a fan of the truck thogh but it looks like a good parts pack Quote
jovel Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 The Volvo looks great! I can't figure out how the steering works, but in the bottom there is a Dogbone-beam. Also it looks like there is an axle going back upwards for the steering wheel in the cabin. Quote
Ondra Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I could this car resemble that pickup truck. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Power_Wagon But I see it also duneloader from GTAV http://gta.wikia.com/Duneloader . Quote
Hrafn Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Pick up doesn't look very good aestetically - good base for mods. I like the huge amount of red panels. Must be VOLVO uses green colored engines Apparently so. Quote
Kumbbl Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 also needs to be toned down, that fast steering looks ridiculous. Maybe they can slightly improve the bucket lift and propulsion speed though i don't believe there will be really improvements... Compare the slow speeds of the features of the 42009... Why should TLG now try to make bucket faster... Kids will be satisfied... And the jerky or better said crappy steering is caused by bad design decision and can not simply fixed. IMO servo Motor is completely unappropriate for articulated steering... And for AS you really Need no return to center because such models should be so slow in speed that RTC is quite useless or even contraproductive... Therefore using a servo for this is bad design and can not be fixed so we get a well working AS... Just my 2ct Quote
