January 16, 20169 yr Nice. I went downsizing. I needed the tires for another MOC and slapped on some LEGO balloon tires to hold it up in the meantime. The servo steering seems to work better with the PF Train Speed controller.
January 21, 20169 yr My L350F had been sitting on the shelf for a few months so I decided to dust it off and take some new photos. I prefer outdoor shoots but it is -5c this time of year Before the shoot I had a go at replicating the proper L350F sloped back and also changed the rear end as I felt that the original was too squared off. I'm also using the Rock Crusher XT 1.9 tires but instead of foam inserts I actually put the included LEGO tires inside for added support. The best mod was adding Efferman's incredible steering system. Edited January 21, 20169 yr by therealjustin
January 24, 20169 yr I too want to take mine out doors for a few photos - I want to try forced-perspective, having worked out it's approximatly 1:18 scale. www.loz.pics (www.loz.pics (IMG_2085)) by Lawrence Fowler, on Flickr www.loz.pics (www.loz.pics (IMG_2078)) by Lawrence Fowler, on Flickr Lawrence
January 28, 20169 yr Are you pleased with them ? I have mine on he model for almost 2 weeks and everything is just fine, no problems at all.
January 28, 20169 yr Easy to fit to hub and look cool on vehicle well pleased. I will rebuild it to efferman's idea of using activators for turning the Volvo they only cost about £10 for the set cheaper than 1 tumbler tyre thanks for the link guys and happy building Edited January 28, 20169 yr by ctx1769
March 30, 20168 yr Whoop! mine just arrived four weeks early, not sure if Berlioz approves..... I had a spare train RC remote and pretty happy with the steering using that. I'm fairly happy with the looks of it, but might try tidy the front section up, and definitely want to add some lights to this.

March 31, 20168 yr Got this on my 24th Birthday! With all the other 'Big Yellow Machines'. With my 8110 Unimog!

It is written: WITHOUT electronics! If its 180 Euros without electronics, that makes it pretty expensive doesn't it?
March 31, 20168 yr I don't keep up with 42030 as I don't own it, YET, but are there c models created from 42030?

June 3, 20168 yr Well finally finished the custom build and it drives much better than the original build . Thanks to effermann for the redesign, catweazel for the pdf, freekysch for the link on the tires and my own brain for moving the front mudguard back
June 3, 20168 yr I almost scored myself one of these for $115 but someone bought it just before me little bit disappointed.
June 19, 20168 yr I've made a few improvements to mine! For example, I've added a towing hitch! Also, I've made some lubricant containers too! And yes, they're blue like the real thing!
