(...) I'm sorry to say that I don't think that having the manual itself is going to help much. The 8466 achieves 4wd and steering by using some very specialized parts. You can't easily achieve the same effect using elements from other sets. Fredrik (22 years ago, 8-Sep-02, to lugnet.technic)

Strictly for laughs: (URL) the question: what do you do with last year's model of Bionicle?

(...) I think that the easiest solution is to buy an 8466, which has four wheel drive and front wheel steering, in addition to many other functions. I also like the 8459 Front Loader, which implements four wheel drive and steering in a different (...) (22 years ago, 7-Sep-02, to lugnet.technic)

The 8466 also does this. Actually, the 8466 does pretty much everything the 8880 does except four wheel steering, and that's easily solved. (just extend the steering gear to the backwheels and mount the rack in front of the rear wheels, assuming the (...) (22 years ago, 7-Sep-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) AFAIK the only LEGO car to feature this is 8880, you might be able to borrow idea's from that design. The instructions can be found on Brickshelf. (22 years ago, 7-Sep-02, to lugnet.technic)

It's a pity there isn't a remote-control pneumatic switch you could connect up to Mindstorms or a similar system. I would *love* to be able to remotely control switches, this would solve your problem somewhat by drastically cutting (figuratively (...) (22 years ago, 7-Sep-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I don't thing tube stretch is a factor here. The pneumatic tubes do not expand very much at the normal pressures of Lego pnuematics. The tubes are relatively stiff. The volume comes from just the long length of tubing. (Think of a volume (...) (22 years ago, 6-Sep-02, to lugnet.technic)
