MiniMonsterz 2 >>TigerClaw<<

Remember the mini monster truck series that I posted about yesterday?
Well it's back with a new truck, TigerClaw:



TigerClaw is a buggy type off-roader that has steering like SnakeBite but the back suspension is much much more loose. Shown in video above ^^. THe front suspension is the same in the two trucks that I've made and it will probably be the same in every single one of the MiniMonsterz series. The back suspension, however , will be different in every vehicle in the series but some of them will be very alike.

All of the parts of the MiniMonsterz trucks will be alike if not the same exact ones.

Big Surprise

I got the lego technic Quad Bike for Christmas and I was very excited about the shock absorbers ( three of them!) but I realized that the gray ones are not the same as the yellow ones. Two differences (1) different spring (2) easier to squish. However they do have similarities (1) same length (2) same squished length. I am having trouble deciding which ones to use in my upcoming creation. Help me with it and leave a helping comment.

Snow White Supercar

TechnicBRICKs: Week TechVideo, 2009 #36 - Snow White drives CRAZY!Basically a Power Functions supercar. Posts later on something similar that i'm working on. Not NXT though. Power functions M motor is just too fast to just sit there in the box! thinking about integrating into the suspension. Nothing more said

Double H-frame chassis (For PF)

An H-frame is a chassis that is like an H with two beams in the middle.
H-frames are one of the strongest chassis. When an H-frame is made, it usually is connected
to a wishbone suspension. I will be posting pictures and maybe a video in a few days
