  1. Well, in that color the set would literally jump off the shelves as you see it
  2. Or we have the great and nice looking Neon Yellow to use!
  3. Lee was pointing to the model he designed, the 42178 Surface Space Loader, and the "new small beam" should be this one. Although for us it first appeared in 42168, but that's also a 2024 set so it wasn't out yet when this video was recorded back in September 2023. By the way, I saw a bit of confusion about the designer of the VTOL - it is Uwe Wabra. Lee Magpili designed 42178, and Samuel Tacchi was the designer of 42180. And here is my review of this amazingly swoooooshable set:
  4. @BrickMonkeyMOCs thanks for the detailed explanation, it's easier to understand with pictures :) Your solution is quite clever, it does work and it is fairly easy to implement, although I still think the stepper could have been designed to be more reliable out of the box :)
  5. Such a swap can expand the part selection for more common colors, and make rare pieces more available. I prefer this approach rather then introducing a handful of pieces in a brand new color. There are quite a few panels in this set that were not available in orange previously, also the 16L soft axle, and a some rare parts like the axle/pin or pin/pin connector.
  6. @2GodBDGlory it is certainly possible and makes it slightly better, but it won't fix the issue in the first place, and the instructions never tell you to do this, so it's not a solution for an average builder. If you saw my previous video, the manual of 42171 actually shows the steering wheel being rotated while the wheels are centered.
