LEGO American Airlines DC-10! Major Nose Progress!

[@seanblanchard3333]

This is absolutely amazing. You have done stuff with Lego that I never thought possible. Synchronized motor driven landing gear? That is next level. You should be a master builder working at Lego. Why are you not hired at Lego yet? They don't need a job interview, they just need to watch your builds on KZbin.

[@APerson-fj6yx]

Well I’m glad his work is being recognized. His Air Force One is displayed next to the real one (the 747 next to the 707) and his B-36 is on display next to the real thing

[@GenealRC225]

True

[@MichaelMaciejewski-n9v]

I think you should make a C-17 globemaster II

[@Tennesseeairsoft]

Big planes I’m in Dayton rn going to the air museum can’t wait to see the air force one if it is still on display.

[@jamal92838]

Holy shyte! BIGPLANES!! Ive been subscribed for years now. Watching you grow over the years is AMAZING! from a little harrier jet (which i realy admire) to an a380 The to a dc10 with fully moterized landing gear!! 👍👍

[@sauravgupte6734]

I think the weight of the aircraft is going to damage the 24 tooth gear in your worm gear box. I suggest you make the nose gear lean back a bit so the tension is transferred onto the body of the aircraft and not solely on the gear box. You are going to be displaying it on a stand but still its better if you don't out too much tension on the worm gear box. Also great work man I've been following this channel for years and I love your stuff!

[@BigPlanesCustomLEGOaircraft]

When this model is fully assembled there should be very little strain on the nose wheel due to the large engine in the back.

[@jonathanbrowne4362]

The last thing you want is to strip the whole gearbox apart again😂

[@Custom.lego.planes]

I can’t wait until it’s finished it’s going to look soooo cool

[@wyorca]

I LOVE the forward rake of the TEN’s nose wheel. You captured it so well!

[@ckz7880]

The work that you are doing is phenomenal. Motorised landing gear? Wow! Steerable nose gear? WOW! Synchronised landing gear that retracts at the exact same time? AMAZING!

[@alejandropalacios5370]

Amazing, i want see that plane finished, keep going !!!.

[@Intremental]

Cant wait to see it done!

[@Cobra_thekiddo]

Yeah, me too!

[@jamesfahey7188]

Keep at it. I am impressed with what you’ve done. You’re the best Lego builder going around.

[@owenspalding872]

When’s Timelapse for 707 coming

[@chris_82_bv8]

OMG it even sounds like a real landing gear retracting and extending.

[@birbo2.048]

When will you add the back middle Landing gear

[@A_Royal_Duck]

Fast progress

[@BrickHQ]

Awesome job

[@TheLegendaryGamer-hr2cx]

I think you're the best Lego builder in the world

[@voidmaster9715]

Making it American airlines is wild

[@sEngineer-il8im]

This looks absolutely beautiful so far! For a future build i would love to see you make the XB-70.

[@ggalvanizedssquaressteel]

Wow that is amazing! I love how make the planes so detailed!!!

[@Driver0378]

You never cease to amaze me with your skills. This is going to be a museum piece when you’re done! 👍

[@Fl_warbricks]

Cant wait for the end result!

[@TheLegendaryGamer-hr2cx]

I think you should make the vertical and horizontal stabilizers motorized

[@BMac-mk2mf]

Hey man I love your videos I can’t believe that you’re actually able to make stuff so cool like that

[@wi11_3lder]

You honestly deserve way more subscribers, the amount of effort you put into building these aircraft is insane. I could never imagine myself being able to even build one of the engines. So far, the DC-10 is looking great and I look forward to seeing future progress. The landing gear mechanism is very cool and I’ve never truly understood how motorized parts worked.

[@armoredcalvary1273]

Maybe try having the doors ride loose on the exposed black axle but with a separate rubber band and let the gear push them out and close via Rband. when the gear is out. Then have the middle exposed black axle (seeing this from angle at 5:01) push the doors back open when the front gear moves OR add them to the completed front door series drive train.

[@abest5164]

This is getting along quite fast! Great work as always

[@drytishuuz]

if you still have trouble with the main doors on the nose, try experimenting with stuff on those 2 long support axels, might work in some way. You always find a way however, so best of luck and great work!

[@BigPlanesCustomLEGOaircraft]

Next thing I’m going to try is to run an axle and directly power those main doors.

[@drytishuuz]

@@BigPlanesCustomLEGOaircraft i look forward to seeing it!

[@vapserviggo3036]

This is dope, dude🔥

[@Maxiie_TM]

Looks good. Very fast progress. Keep on building.

[@davidlawand2805]

i love this so much i wonder if you can retrofit the 380 or 747 to have mechanized gears xD

[@sherman_of_the_lake]

I'm going to be honest with you. I love this channel and I think the content is great, but I would like to see you go outside your comfort zone with your next build by maybe making a lego build that is unique. I am not saying that what you are doing is not good, but I would enjoy something new like a military helicopter or fighter after this build. Another idea for making something unique is making a glider or a blimp. Please read this comment.

[@lsco2284]

You also half to have a curved front witch makes extra tricky .did you notice and will the landingear work right side up

[@joeybauer]

Looks great! Excited to see it when it’s completed!

[@rak37ful]

great job it looks amazing👍

[@Caturtle213]

Your work is literally amazing😀

[@ericcartman65378]

Amazing man ! Continue like this good job ! Here's a suggestion : an Air Algérie B737 if possible pls

[@nathannastamagou3387]

Can you model a faulty cargo door hinge?

[@EmotiveCloudiest]

You've been doing incredible with this project!! So many cool new features too! Do you think reverse thrust will ever be possible? It would be really cool to actually see it in action!

[@Aviation129]

Looks good!

[@wovkonstudios]

Has Lego certified you? 🤩

[@LeilaMaeve]

you need to teach us how to build the nose of a 737 or how you do scales

[@eyfire7691]

AFTER YOU FINISH THIS AMAZING DC 10 COULD YOU DO AN A350 WITH MOTORIZED EVERYTHING LANDING GEAR FLAPS CARGO HOLDS AND RUDDER

[@TheLegendaryGamer-hr2cx]

Cant wait man

[@tryingfighter3135]

Looks great 👍

[@TheLegendaryGamer-hr2cx]

Also dont forget the cargo area

[@757Air]

Looks good so far

[@Aperson340m]

Wow, Great job!

[@danarchy7232]

Will you ever release instructions and pieces needed for some of these models? I’m a huge fan of the Southwest Ideas model, and my girlfriend and I’s first vacation was on that plane.

[@aviation_papercraft]

spectacular!

[@abossoum2392]

So if you check the lego d11 cat dozer,you'll notice that two out of four of its motors alone are powering 4 functions,but how?well...they work as:first motor is the main moving motor,the second is working as a gear box,you shall try this strategy

[@jjminecraftpro8700]

Big plans I dare You to build a Antonov AN 225 and if you don’t wanna do that you can do the Antonov AN 22

[@adamadams3381]

Can you release instructions

[@RossaviationistheF16VIPER]

Amazing ❤

[@hendrikdienel5714]

Whoo, this looks complicated! Try Pneumatic System for nose gear and doors. This should be easier for transfering the power the long way through the fuselage. Needs less space, maybe has less loss of torque (torsion deformation of long thin axels...). It also is more like the actual hydraulics systems in an real airplane that are used for such purposes. Nice work btw.👍 Best regards from Europe.

[@hendrikdienel5714]

In the 90s Lego invented some sort of a flex wire system for power transmission. This would be great to tranfer motions through the fuselage. Unfortunately, I dont know any set numbers. Maybe you'll find it anywhere. I appreciate your personal challenge of building your great planes with original Lego parts only. But there's more about the straight mechanical systems of gears and axels, and maybe even more possibilities when using alternative (yet compatible) brands. I would like to encourage you to think "out of the box".

[@sauravgupte6734]

Haha i've worked with pneumatics before and it is NOT a good idea. Pneumatics do not work at all for precise movements like this. You can get a general movement but air is extremely compressible. I tried using pneumatics for FLL 2022 but it was almost impossible to make it work!

[@TheLegendaryGamer-hr2cx]

Nice idea man

[@colonelcactus2462]

You should do an America West airlines a320 next

[@andrewa8367]

Impressive.

[@CustomLegoModels]

very good nose gear

[@Fgswift21]

Great vid. How much will this cost roughly

[@southwest0092]

Nice

[@TheLegendaryGamer-hr2cx]

I am going to give you a video idea to make an entire technic plane

[@connormcmullin4789]

Im wondering if you could prop the front doors on a cam and use gear ratios to make sure the cam rotates enough

[@BigPlanesCustomLEGOaircraft]

Might give it a shot

[@smyczekbasayczek3787]

Can you show as the michanism?

[@marie-helenedemers4349]

After your done making that can you build a lego private jet?

[@maritimeshark1467]

Could you attach a link from the sliding part to the doors?

[@demikpro8636]

your plane are best

[@James_Loves_Planes]

can u build a airbus a320 after the dc10 10

[@subman721]

Haven’t seen any updates in a while, I hope everything is OK on your end.

[@BigPlanesCustomLEGOaircraft]

Yes everything is good. I'm still aiming to be done with this by the end of the year.

[@g.aviation2024]

Where do you buy the bricks

[@GenealRC225]

Iam working on a 747 right now!

[@graysnewcity]

So cool

[@GenealRC225]

Bro that is cool

[@TamimAlzahrani-zu1vs]

Make the an 225

This plane looks super sus right now

[@TheLegendaryGamer-hr2cx]

I don't get it man

[@kiraly_kommandos]

Why don't you just start the project and only show the result?

[@alex-q8-q9]

Major nose

[@brileybates2039]

Drip 100

[@d3ezz]

@BigPlanes When your done recreate American Airlines Flight 191

[@subman721]

Not that I would ever speak on anyone’s behalf without their consent. I don’t think he wants to recreate a tragedy that took 271 lives, you Ghoul! Some people are just sick in the head I guess.

[@thclabeforthestom175]

Can i please your american Airlines plane and thank you i what to become a pilot it always been my dream job

[@Themasonbyred]

Do not ride DC-10. It meas Death Commuter.

[@thclabeforthestom175]

Can i have your american airlines airplane please respond to me comment
