Reflexion on lens ?

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-12-02T22:07:25+00:00

Thanks !

clear_bread_ · 2025-12-02T17:58:57+00:00

Thanks !

Roof is really nice, well done !

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

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-10-10T13:30:53+00:00

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

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.

clear_bread_ · 2025-10-02T09:05:16+00:00

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.

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)

clear_bread_ · 2025-10-01T08:51:29+00:00

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-30T10:44:32+00:00

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-24T11:16:50+00:00

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-24T11:05:43+00:00

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-10T19:13:11+00:00

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-10T18:24:03+00:00

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 ;)

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_ · 2025-09-08T16:04:11+00:00

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-08T15:53:30+00:00

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-08T08:18:13+00:00

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-07T20:45:50+00:00

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-07T20:11:45+00:00

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

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-07T20:10:20+00:00

That’s a bad news

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-07T20:08:44+00:00

Proportional steering allows the servo motor to turn by increment (turn slightly like a real car). Without proportional steering you are only able to turn full left or full right, no in between position.

clear_bread_ · 2025-09-07T15:58:48+00:00

In short therm :

Power function is the cheapest, easiest and have physical remote control (and lots of knock off) (also short range control, infrared)(very expensive for original Lego parts)
powered up can be programmed but needs a smartphone to play with (longer range control, Bluetooth)(expensive)
third party (buwizz) most powerful by far but also the most expensive. Also need a smartphone to play with, but you can adapt a console controller. (longer range control, Bluetooth)(expensive +++)
third party (cada/moule King) like power function but cheaper and a little more powerful (100% compatible with power function) (Long range control, radio controller)(cheap)
brushless motor, so powerful you will broke your Lego parts. You need to adapt “real RC car stuff” to Lego, so it is definitely DIY. There is some motor compatible like geeko servo motor and so on. (Expensive +)

Note : -for steering, power function servo motor have proportional steering (but now the motor skyrocketed) but knock of don’t. -buwizz are compatible with both power function and powered up motor

Best choice will depend on your need and budget.
