MOC: Motorised helicopter

Hello all. Wow 20th post already. This time i bring you my motorised helicopter. No it doesn't fly but it does create a noticeable draft. It has a sort of a brake but instead of "braking" it works like a gear box. It interrupts the gear train so the momentum from the blades doesn't keep the motor from turn after it gets turned off. On with the pictures:


And finally a video of it working:


And thats it. Hope you liked it. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to email me or post a comment below. Till next time.

MOC: AP-AG Racer

Hello all. It;s been a while since my last post but this one is hopefully worth it. This is a Wipeout inspired anti-gravity racer. I really like the Wipeout series of games and i just really wanted to make one so here it is. It has two air brakes on either side and two bigger ones on the back as well as one underneath it. It also has landing gear. i've put on some of the weapons on it but i couldn't fit all on. I also made a boarding ramp for it.

You can find more pictures of this on the brickshelf page here: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=484374

You can also find the EuroBricks thread here: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=60331

Now on with the pictures:






And thats it. Comments and questions are welcome. Till next time.

MOC: AP17X Super Aries.

Hello all. This is my latest moc that i've been building for a while now. The AP17X is a sort of a upgrade of a old moc i made quite a few years ago now. The original was called the AP17 Aries so i thought seeing as this is a upgraded version i'd call it the AP17X Super Aries. It's mainly used as either a transport plane or a personnel transport plane. 

It's a VTOL aircraft so it can land just about anywhere, The ramp at the back can go up and down, It has retractable landing gear and it also uses skids instead of wheels. Mainly because i don't have the right sized wheels. It uses two engines on the end of either wing for going up and down as well as one at the back to stabilise it. It also has two main engines built into the body. There's more pictures here: https://picasaweb.go...feat=directlink I hope you like it. Finally here's the pictures:
