Hi Jennifer
I’m happy in your reply. You, Dennis,Bram and Evert are my favourite
builders in this NG..
I prefer technic figure scale in heavy vehicle so it’s easy to have motion
in various function.
Then I add Mindstorms special parts (special thanks to Mario and Giulio
Ferrari for BRLM , and others Itlug members too) getting similar functions
you make by radio control.

In reply to your question, the angle of the trailer wheels is simply
determined by angle of steering wheel on the tractor by 2 rotation sensors
differently positioned. I don’t know if this happen in the real truck also,
but I having problems in height, space and long distance trasmission so I
used fantasy…. It’s natural building a toy, or not!?
As soon as possible I’ll buy a digital camera to supply you most detailed
documentation in technic parts ( really, nothing to special !!)
Thanks
Francesca
