Found this MOC on Rebrickable and decided to make it yellow. Made a few mods/additions along the way.

Steering controlled by gear on top

Added lights to the front

Wider cage, moved steering wheel, added dash guages/controls

Tail lights and different exhaust.

Different wheels too.

All done! All 1000 steps!

Hello everyone, As some of you know, im making an 8×8 lego crawler/ truck. This is what i made, its the back part of the chassis. Do you think i should add another axle behind the one with the weels on, or should i leave it like it is? I dont have the tires i wanted to use for this project yet, but they should be here tomorrow.

Features include : 7 speed + N + R gearbox, height changing, active steering aerodynamic, movable chairs and independent suspensions

Looking to buy random sets that are incomplete, primarily the biggers ones. Idk, might be kinda weird, but I kinda wanna just sort everything out, find what I need to buy, and take on the challenge. It also is sometimes cheaper ig.

Can't find much on bricklink.

I know there are a ton of 3D printed hooks but is there a 3M/Command hook that fits perfectly to hang the Mercedes F1 set on a wall?

I just finished bag 5 of the P1, which means the gearbox is basically done. On the last page for bag 5, there's this diagram showing expect outputs of turning two axles within the gearbox. I followed the instructions very meticulously, and I have the orange barrels orientated exactly as shown in the picture. However, when I turn the back center axle, I get movement from the bottom right gear as opposed to the bottom left gear like the picture shows. If I turn the axle attached to the shifter once, I then see movement in the bottom left gear when turning the center axle. Am I overthinking this and the gearbox is working as intended, or did I do something wrong? Any help would be appreciated, thank you guys. :) (I'm not sure how to attach the picture, it's on page 193 of book one)

Hi all,

I currently own the Mclaren F1 car and the Mercedes F1 car.
Planning to buy the Ferrari and Red Bull ones too once they are decently discounted.

I was just looking for some advice/inspiration in wall mounting them, the easiest seems to mount a wall shelf, however a quick Google search also leads to wall mounting the cars themselves, I was just wondering if maybe the people here have even better ideas.

I want to make a 8x8 lego car, with 4 wheels that steer and all 8 wheels are powered, but i dont know how i should do that. Should i have a motor per pair of wheels ( i have 4 motors) or should i make an axle thats connected to multiple motors and multiple pairs of wheels. And should i make the 4 front wheels steerable or the 2 front and 2 back?

Genuinely curious since I love some of the sets they have but I'm unsure if it is safe to buy from there.

Hey everyone,

To start with, I’m a complete newcomer to everything technic related- not a clue about motors, pneumatics, gearboxes, (insert cool mechanic here).

My father is a retired engineer. He’s gone to great lengths over the years to make many a Christmas very special. I’ve never been able to get him a gift that measures up, really- but this year I finally have a decent job and I want to strike back with a vengeance.

I know that he was really into LEGO when he was growing up, he had a set of mechanised trains that he used to put grey in my grandmother’s hair (and were the subject of many a post-mass confession). My idea is to reignite that spark with a technic set that has some intricate mechanics to fiddle with (and explain at great length to my weary younger siblings).

So if you could recommend a set that has some cool mechanics and motors and decent bang for buck, up to the ~€300 range, I would very much appreciate it. He’s big into cars, planes, construction, large engineering projects like off-shore turbines or platforms.

Hope you all enjoy the holidays!

Thanks

I messed up the title. It should read min. ago Sleevefans

Continuously variable speed Power Functions remote?

Hello, we have the off brand Power Functions IR Remote Control and it is an all or nothing speed control. Does does the official Lego controller feature variable speed control? I know that the Power Functions IR Speed Remote Control does this, but the twist function is clunky. Does a throttle like controller exist? Something smooth and easy to use? Is this even possible with IR? Thanks!
