Video: NXTLiftBoy Has done it again!!!

Well even though this is not an NXT Creation I think it is still awesome. As most of you know NXTLiftBoy has made several really cool creations. You can check them out over at MOCpages Here.

Here is what he has to say about it:

The ChainRider is a trike featuring two huge wheels, remote control, and, i dare say, excellent drive properties. It is made entirely from a single LEGO set 8275, but appears to be much more fun in playing than the bulldozer!

For more information and building instructions see: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/54200

I challenge anyone to try to make a similar version of this with an NXT at the control.

Giganto is a joint effor of several people I know and me. It uses two XL PF motors, several NXT motors, and two NXTs. This is it’s second version, and while it is still not THAT big it’s alot bigger than many robots I have built so far. See more of it on NXTLog Here:

And by the way, the Lego Technic Bulldozer I bought came in the mail today, so some of my upcoming projects are going to have a obvious size difference than my old ones!
