JLiu15 Posted January 19, 2021 Hey guys, so I'm trying to use a mini linear actuator in a digital build that will be at its fully extended position. The mini linear actuator, however, is "stuck" at its fully retracted position in Stud.io. I've seen files others created with extendable linear actuators, but those are see-thru when collision is turned on (meaning there's an issue) and when I create instructions, it has you assemble the individual components of the actuator! I've read in another topic that you have to "break" them into their components/subparts. However, I'm not sure what this means. Is this done in Stud.io or PartDesigner? I've tried playing around with the features in PartDesigner on a miniLA, but so far had no luck extending the rod. Any help from Stud.io experts will be appreciated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philo Posted January 23, 2021 I have a parts pack containing LAs separated into components. You can get it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xQTBbPcWl3zWQh60XOSxWvkOpqj2rqJI/view?usp=sharing To use it, unzip it and place its contents in your C:\Users\{your username}\AppData\Local\Stud.io . Spike Prime parts will then be available in Custom Parts palette of Studio.

GerritvdG Posted April 29, 2022 Just want to say that the parts pack with LA subparts of @Philo works like a charm in Stud.io. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
