The more I think about the new linear actuator the more applications I think up for it, but I was just wondering is it actually going to be significantly cheaper to make than the pneumatic system? I know you won't need a pump, valve block or pipes, (...) (17 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Gordons's right, I'm currently pro the new fairings. I like my parts to be made up of recognisable geometric shapes and have lines of symmetry :-). (17 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.technic)

I can't see from your photos how you're stopping the main structure lifting off the base. Correct me if I'm wrong, but crane turntables hold the superstructure down so the load moment is transferred to the crawler base. I've seen photos of cranes (...) (17 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I wasn't referring to the old fairings. I was referring to the new fairings. Being that they have pin holes on both ends, I would have thought they gave you more of an opportunity to "close up". They could be used in co-operation with old (...) (17 years ago, 20-Feb-08, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I think it's because I always think things should be "closed up". If I was say building a truck and putting fairings on the side I'd build it from bricks and plates so it would be rectangular, you' can't do that with the old fairings. (17 years ago, 20-Feb-08, to lugnet.technic)

(...) What was mentioned to be disappointing is the mechanism to tilt the forks (like 8283). Yes, the LA to raise the boom was seen and mentioned. A good part in this set! Fernando (Conchas) (URL) (17 years ago, 19-Feb-08, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) The comments on TechnicBRICKs describe dissapointment about the arm lifting mechanism on the 8295 being similar to the 8283 - however I can clearly see a linear actuator nex to the driver's seat - I wonder if the article writer missed this? (17 years ago, 19-Feb-08, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
