| Take an 8263 Snow Groomer alternate model, mix it with an NXT kit, wait for a sunny winter day and you get this great little Snow Crawler (see Note #4) -- i really had fun filming it and i felt like a kid again (ok so i often do :) (Note #1) The sensor you see on this MOC are not of use in this movie! The Snow Crawler was basically just running autonomously and i guess if the dog would had sat in it's way the Crawler would have backed up because it was programmed to do so. The light sensor, for example, was used as a spotlight for when the crawler sneaked under the sofa it would shine... but these outside shots made me forget the ones i took inside. (Note #2) About using your NXT outside and getting snow in it,, well it's not recommended! You should not expose the NXT components to water so make sure you dry off the snow quickly after. (Note #3) I removed the soundtrack and deleted the original video so that my account would be clean, This decision however made me loose the previous 6000+ views I had for the original video. (Note #4) The correct LEGO #8263 Snow Groomer's alternate model name is ARCTIC TRACKER... oh well mine is still called the Snow Crawler Thank you all for watching, commenting and... subscribing :) |
