Nice colour scheme and design! I love all the rounded parts on this model, and I am so glad to see this mecha has wheels on its feet (very VOTOMS/Heavy Gear inspired). Details like this make mecha more realistic. Can't wait to see what you're going (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

My model (link below) uses elevators with a double rack and double drive axles (four z8 pinions). I have tested it with a payload of 36lbs (more than enough for a complete scale-size Saturn V). By my calculations, thats 40N per elevator. The rubber (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)
