C-130H
My version of the venerable C-130 Hercule. It is 62 studs long by 78 studs wide. Inspired by Kurt's MOCs amazing Hercs, Brickmania's AC-130 Gunship and BigPlanes (for the motorisation), it is my first attempt ever at motorising one of my MoCs. I ran the four engines for 12 hours at speed 4 using a custom battery pack (2 Li-On batteries) and a standard Power Functions train motor. The IR sensor is concealed in the cockpit, between the two crew members (ok, it is just their heads!) but allows for a clear line of sight with the remote. The modified battery pack helps to keep the plane from tipping on its tail. I used 3 Light my Bricks bit lights for the nav lights, but I will refine this system and add a few more lights in the future. The nose can be replaced with a black one (I actually find that it looks better in black), but the grey version seems to be the norm nowadays in the USAF. In the video, you may notice that the right spinners are offset a little. When I properly calibrate the gears though, they all run straight and smooth. The rear cargo and side crew doors are the only other two functional aspects. 100% custom stickers, as usual.
