1980SomethingSpaceGuy Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 May well be my favorite so far. This guy's a genius ! Quote
Rudivdk Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 That's really good indeed, and very well explained too. Nice presentation also with the light brick. But when you are at this level of perfecting a LEGO build, I personally think the stationary gear should be a lot less wobbly, and the curved housing could be more accurate to represent the slight 'waist' in the middle of the oval chamber... Nevertheless, this is way above my level of ingenuity... Akiyuki indeed is a genius! Quote
2GodBDGlory Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 Yeah, he definitely went above and beyond expectations. That whole thing with the light brick is just great! Quote
Gray Gear Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 The whole engine looks great, exept for the gear contraption in the front of the rotor. As I have proven with my small rotary fake engine in my RX7 MOC, it isn't even needed, and I dont think it is doing much good here as well. At higher rpm the rotor is clearly only scraping on the walls because the gear is mounted too unstable. I can only Imagine he wants to keep it to kind of simulate the mechanism in the real engine, and while it isn't very accurate I can understand it. But it doesnt look good. I love the lightbrick idea tho, looks and works great! Quote
