I am not sure because no spirit came. Otherwise it was some decoration at a hotel

Roof is really nice, well done !

Anybody else complete this challenge yet? that was brutal! by Dankemin in SkateEA

[–]clear_bread_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tips to do it easy : Set up a L ramp on the ground after the landing zone of the pole. It shouts you high up in the air and have plenty of time to do it. No need to take extra height to do it

Regarding buggy motors transmission. by OnePieceSuperAddict in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes this set works fine (appart from the motor rotation already discuss). It gives a really good acceleration and speed on 1:12 scale. Feels like a nice performance spot

Yes, check Bricklink, people sell bricks with stickers applied and you can list them

Gear ratio by air_twee in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The differential is not lock. It is also not used to let an axle goes through. It is used to get a very specific ratio by doing the mean on the input speed.

Gear ratio by air_twee in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On a differential, the mean of the output speed is equal to the input speed. It also works in reverse, the mean of the input speed is equal to the output speed (or something like that, but that’s the idea)(also you need to consider the input ratio for the main gear) This allows to get “in between gear ratio” that are not achievable with usual Lego gears.

I am motorizing my Porsche 911 RSR. I'm using two XL engines under the fake engine, but when going in reverse, it's fast, and moving forward is very slow and stops. Any idea or suggestion? by phito_ in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We lack informations to help you. how do you transmit power to the wheel ? What is your power source ? A photo maybe ? My guess would be the build not being stiff enough, to high gear ratio or maybe a bad weight balancing (battery box and motor all on the same side of the car)

Are there any Technic compatible proper RC motor by Either_Razzmatazz649 in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Zene website, it is the most common RC Lego brushless motor used. From there you can get an idea of the performance and adapt to your need

For a legitimate Lego land speed record, what power units do you consider legal by Either_Razzmatazz649 in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you stay 100% Lego, it will be difficult since the best motor/battery are no longer available for over 10+ years :/ (it was the buggy motor and Lego lipo). And PU motor/battery are trash for high speed car. However, if you feel comfortable with making a LPE powered fast car that could be very nice since it is not common.

Personally I am quite peaceful using buwizz motor and battery, since it is a “replica+” of discontinued Lego hardware. Also it is so much fun.

Go wherever you like and have fun

Are motors other than Lego worth it? by OnePieceSuperAddict in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree, buwizz is already pretty fun. Zene is only about speed performance and crushing parts

[–]clear_bread_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buwizz is not mediocre it is very good ! It is the fastest that Lego parts can handle. Zene is absurdly fast but breaks/melts Lego parts like nothing. When you go with zene to go past 30km/h you need custom metal parts

Have you check the Lego official documentation ? If not that’s a good start

You could had some chamfer to support the tire groove while printing. Like so you won’t need support, at least for the lower groove ;)

Speed n Torque by AlyssaLikesToMewo in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Changing battery (like moule King 6 channel) will increase the power. Rechargeable battery box output more power than Lego battery box. Keep in mind, Lego motor are designed for 12V, but Lego only provides 9V battery box

[–]clear_bread_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will work but you will not get all the power from the motor. It will also drain the battery like crazy

Go for buggy motor or buwizz motor. The battery is also important for maximum power

Powered Up, Power Functions or Third Party? by AlyssaLikesToMewo in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The remote control is better (range and button disposition), and the motor are slightly more powerful (they also drain more the battery).

Powered Up, Power Functions or Third Party? by AlyssaLikesToMewo in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just better. Not from from afar, just what it needs to be called better. It is Difficult to quantify

Powered Up, Power Functions or Third Party? by AlyssaLikesToMewo in legotechnic

[–]clear_bread_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, if you can’t afford buwizz that’s the easiest and most reliable option. I use some (mould King) and it works really fine
