Tracker Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I have made a pair of new mining vehicles. The first is Deepbore 1, a rock crusher. Description This the Deepbore 1. It is a remotely operated rockface grinder powered externally. The borehead is articulated to allow the operator to reach faces that are not perpendicular to the machine. Movement is provided by in wheel motors. -RI heavy It was inspired by the drill tank in this: [link] The second is the Loadozer {lo dozer} (I wish that I could adjust those actuators in LDD.) Description This is the Loadozer. It is currently the only hybrid made by RI Heavy, with ICE, battery, and on-grid modes. The reason for this is that it is meant for underground mines and similar environments. Its engine is a v6 muiltfuel diesel. All of its systems are electric outside of that. There is no mechanical transmission. Rather it uses in-wheel electric motors. All of the controls are on the steering yoke, which [is] mounted on a semi-ridged mount. It should be noted that it is taller than most vehicles of this type. Car CrazeXVI, Arthuriel and Cirevam 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Car CrazeXVI Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Wow, the lodozer is really...something. It makes me think it's a Tonka. O.T. Lair, why is a Rockwhale eating a Small Transport Truck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you can't see is the four XL motors driving the wheels, which is why it has so many battery boxes. O.T. Lair has yet to answer that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirevam Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 You see, Tracker? This stuff is actually cool. I like these, especially the Loadozer. Build more things like this. s0d3rb3rg, PeabodySam, Fush and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 I actually did make a lot of vehicles, I just did not post them here because, well, there is a ton of them. http://raiderzulu.deviantart.com/gallery/ Look at the RI subfolders. And there is still a few things that I have yet to publish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lair Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 okay, well I guess I'll start caring about what you post again. I like the Deepbore vehicle. the loadozer is a little awkward but it certainly is more like the stuff you SHOULD be doing. It was inspired by the drill tank in this: [link] I really don't see how there is much connection, unless this is supposed to be like the inside of it or something.

I originally tried to make a TBM, but the head was too small. I should also point out that RI does a lot more than mining vehicles now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
