Lego Technic Pneumatic Vehicle by Nico71

As a fan of steam and Lego Technic pneumatic creations this car must appear here:


It has all steam basics, boiler, flyweel, distribution valve and a "decorative" centrifugal speed regulator valve...

...Steering and pilot operated clutch!


Like almost always I recommend to watch the video to see the Moc in action!

Lego RC tatra 8X8 By Zblj


Zblj Just presented this massive Tatra Truck at Eurobricks!!


One of the main resources to get lots of torque is the use of planetary gears inside the turntables of each wheel



The two independent RC motors use two indpendent gearboxes in order to power indpendent left/right side wheel drives. This way the trucks steers better, another advanced engineering resource.

Specifications:
Power: 2 RC motors
Gearbox: dual synchronized gearbox
Final gear rations: Low 1:50, high 1:16,67
Length: 60 cm
Width 23 cm
