  Technic Tractor with SuperSteer
 
With my limited supply of Lego I have finished the tractor, I bought the 8466 set yesterday and that will come in soon, but for now this is what I have produced.

  Re: new 2003 sets
 
(...) No one even mentioned what looks like a mini millenium falcon there. I CAN'T wait for the AT-AT and that backhoe 8455!!! Even that truck looks pretty good, and I typically don't like the "specialty" parts that that set has for all the smooth (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)

  Re: SuperSteer, Extremely tight steering for technic models.
 
Your setup works very well! I've tried to build a "super-steering" too, but in my case I was inspired by the Linde forklifts: (URL) after playing with pieces for some hour ;-), I came to this: it works like the typical forklift steering, with that (...)

  Re: Just a little info......
 
(...) NOOO...OOO!!!...!!! This sucks. But I understand, John. I'm really glad to see that HiTechnic was such a great success, despite the negative effects. It has been wonderful to see a venture such as this take off and do well with the Lego fan (...) (22 years ago, 27-Mar-03, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

  Re: Twirp (miniature biped walker) micro-motor-twirp
 
(...) That's cool, especially the micro motor version. I would build one myself, but I don't have a micro motor quite yet. You said that the regular Twirp seemed to stumble a lot, I think that might be because you're running it backwards (the flat (...) (22 years ago, 27-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: Twirp (miniature biped walker)
 
(...) Thanks Jona, Do you mean I should build a small walker that carries power and uses a gear motor? I could definitely work on that. It would be a little bigger, but I could try to keep it compact and build a little coolness into the design :). (...) (22 years ago, 26-Mar-03, to lugnet.technic)
