Fantastic mechanism. I like how the modell becomes more and more complex. Very good work and so simple to understand after I saw the implementation. I think I will implement it in my model. Thanks for the updates!!!
Are you planning on doing armour with technic panels or regular plates? In the tank I made, regular pieces were way better than panels, especially for things like the turret.
Curved Technic panels - the M4A1 cast hull variant, the OG Sherman tank. Whether it'll be better depends on the tank you're making and Shermans had cast rounded turrets so it would get hard to make it look rounded there even if I went for welded hull variant.
@@technicmocer3612 But CADA does release military sets and designs made by 3rd party designers like for example tractors from Eric Trax and tanks from dMAC. Whether it can become a set will depend on how it'll look when I finish it and how big response there will be for it, I think.
I'm treating the Pro L motor as just a normal one, just got it from EricTrax because I run out of those PF motors. Btw also his fault for me taking this long to post another update :P Thanks for the tip about inverted tiles - I didn't remember there ware such pieces in this size, but according to studio the thickness of those and those inverted tiles 2x2 is still the same as those rounded 2x2's that I've used. It's just slightly, just barely too thick, but it can't get thicker than 3 studs in width because there are two drive axles below going towards the engine at the back. I wish there were 2x3 base plates since those are significantly thinner.
I was a lego purist until I got tired of lego RC elements being annoying to quickly prototype with. I wasted a lot of time setting up controls each time I made something with control plus/powered up components.
The issue is with the sides not having much space and combining system vertical sizes in 3 stud wide liftarm space. If I don't figure out how to assemble this out of existing elements, I may decide to go with a custom printed part here that is fitting liftarm ecosystem. This is going to be such a big build that anyone wanting to build it will have to invest some significant amount of money into bricks anyway.
the recoil mechanism you added is making it look even cooler

You are so talented! I wish I could build like you
you just need to keep iterating and looking into how things are done in real life :)
@@SaperPl1 Thank you for this advice, I will take it very much to heart
Keep up the great video. Can't wait the next video.

@@SaperPl1 yay for fully technic mocs! or at least mostly technic mocs!
@@p3l1k44n1 Yeah, I'm kind of not a fan of the Model Team approach, especially where the rounded objects are being depicted.
I would so buy this as a kit
If LEGO released tanks or such stuff as sets ..

@@SaperPl1 Yeah, I know about CADA. It would be interesting to see some of your models as CADA sets :)
Some words about cada Pro L motor?
And try inverted tiles 1x3 instead of two curcle inv tiles

oh my god , you using a non lego piece :O I thinked youre a lego purist 🤔but anyway so perfect and excellent mechanism :D never dissapointed :D

@@SaperPl1 I was purist on some elements, but with the uplevel of prices I go to ali :(
Zamierzasz go w całości budować z klocków technic?
W 100% z technic'owych nie, będą detale z systemowych klocków, ale w większości kadłub i wieża będą z technic'owych paneli.
maybe put some free rotating gears for the elevation mechanism to keep the rack in position

@@SaperPl1 cant you make it work with some string action? If the gun natuarally droops down it could keep tension
