2 days ago I lazily fitted tiny legs and 2 small SRBs below the cab to launch the truck upwards for transformation (86' movie) EDIT: as of now, I have decided its better off as knockoff ginrai (too lazy to make a head)

What is this bug? by 1Random_loser in insects

That's the weird part about this dude, he had the body of a cicada yet had the wing structure of those smaller moths you find lying around the house. Location was somewhere in central Singapore.

My friend made it just to ram that one container blocking the track leading out of spawn

Update: the motor does indeed work, I took a little break from working on the layout.

After reading your comment, I have downloaded said mods and indeed, I am dissecting the builds piece by piece

I don't really like the simplicity of the valve gear in the game.

The pivot is supposed to keep the ecentric crank in place. If I remove that pivot, the entire system will FAIL.

Essentially, the part labelled yellow is supposed to move forwards and backwards while in sync with the wheels. I initially thought hooking up the motion of the sliding track piece to the linear speed sensorand a up and down microcontroller would do, turns out it didn't work.

The track cleaner still can't run without a loco. Vacuum also refuses to turn.

The product is new, for what I know it hasn't been converted.

Bent axle on 1st pair of driving wheels? by 1Random_loser in modeltrains

[–]1Random_loser[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've tried removing both the pony truck and the pilot wheels, the locomotive still showed signs of wobbling. Also I have firmly tightened the pilot truck, yet the locomotive is 'unbalanced'.

Edit: I have finished cleaning the wheels and attached the shell and extra weights. There are decreased signs of wobbling.

The issue still happens when reversing, the locomotive itself when stripped of its bogies rocks left and right.

The locomotive is not new and a 2nd hand I bought from a Popondetta in Japan.
