Gotcha! The old painful masking of decorated parts! Uncheck "Decorated parts on/off" near the search field.- 4578 replies

Is your Studio up-to-date? I works here (version 2.23.12), in fact I just have to key in "8477" to see the rim appear (full file name: 84772pb01)- 4578 replies

Hi @Divitis I haven't checked again my pack, but anyway, both the Vespa wheel rim and its tire are integrated to Studio now. Look for part numbers 84772 and 80542.- 4578 replies

@gyenesvi It was a bit longer than expected, but I updated my Technic 2023 H2 parts pack for Studio to include missing parts from the 42160 Audi set as well as the Mars rover wheel. As usual, the pack is available here: https://philohome.com/studio/packs.htm- 4578 replies

@gyenesvi indeed I overlooked these parts! Will take a bit of time, but I'll do them (if nobody beats me on the finish line😁). Thanks for the heads up! Tell me if you spot other missing recent Technic parts...- 4578 replies

Phondly EnBo PU Battery Pack for Powered UP Technic HUB
Philo replied to Phondly's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Yes it's a pity. I LOVE my prototypes! -
Parts need to be created first, and tracks are a hell to model ;)

Build your LiPo rechargeable battery for Control+ and Powered Up hubs.
Philo replied to Philo's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
No problem for the motors themselves, the limitation comes from the components inside the hub (the LB1836M motor driver is specified with a 9V maximum voltage, 10.5 absolute maximum rating). Buwizz uses a different chip (the one used in PF V2 receivers). -

This is far above specifications of Powered Up hub components... -

I also reviewed EnBo battery pack, as you guess in a more abstract way ;) This page compares 4 solutions: Phondly EnBo rechargeable pack Plain alkaline cells NiMH rechargeable cells My own LiPo home made Spoiler: EnBo is awesome, alkaline is the worse... https://www.philohome.com/pupbat/techubats.htm -
Full Speed Ahead!
Philo replied to amorti's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I don't have a definitive answer as it depends on so many parameters... I have the feeling that the 50% motor load will give the best compromise between acceleration to reach speed and top speed, but not necessarily the best top speed! -

Thanks @shroomzofdoom! The fact that LEGO supports the id of the small motor on Technic and RI hubs proves that they consider it to be compatible. Of course the may have capped the duty cycle to limit effective voltage on the motor. Anyway, DC motors are very rugged and the real limitation would be power dissipation in the motor. But we won't ask the puny small motor to make the work of an XL one ;)- 4578 replies
