Many ideas here: Show Us Your Working Place/lego Room !

I really like this and the simple clutch mechanism! In the video I also had a concern like gyenesvi, if the car would slowdown every time you switch gear. But it seems to work ok. The ideia of a 360º run instead of something like +90º, -90º is very interesting, and it uses directly the stepper. Great work!

If you are on Windows I suggest a tool called PDFill. Also very good to manage stud.io generated instructions.

There are also transparent minifig heads...

Technic Rock rocks, Technic Pop dances! Some prefer Technic Techno, others Technic R&B. Classic Technic or Electronics Technic? What will it be? Some prefer Technic Jazz, some Technic Metal! Am I making sense? Or nonsense at all?

Very interesting! Just tried part of it and it is a perfect triagle! I thought thesewould be too wek but you have a 5L thin liftarm in the back on each side, don´t you? Also, why the 3x5 liftarm? For protection? Limiter?

There are five different versions for this part! I found three in my collection and: 32174: ok, all the way 60176: not ok, but it goes half way 93571: ok, all the way Yours seems to be the most recent one.

I don´t know exactly how I can help you but I simpathize with you! Meanwhile, I found this FAQ which might be useful to explain: https://merchantfaq.wish.com/hc/en-us/articles/10790659715483-South-Korea-product-regulations-FAQs

You could try pybricks

Going mechanical is the Lego way Anyway, it seems you are codding like this: move 90º, move -90º, move 90º….. Doing it this way means that errors accumulate, and you might get what you got, 90 degrees out of sync. Instead, I suggest something like: go to 45º angle, go to -45º angle, go to 45º angle… this way, errors do not accumulate... and you wont even need to go to 0 to initialize.

I have just seen the video (didn´t noticed it before) and this is fantastic! Well... I thought I was able to paste the video... it works while composing the message... but it does not appear when saving. So video is here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/akergarden/53587289346/in/datetaken/

@MikoL, you can get the address of each picture in your picture hosting and just paste it here. For example: https://i.postimg.cc/0jJR1L8P/DSC00430.jpg becomes: BTW, Nice moc!

Yes... but I guess there is no other option.... gear up first?

Here is one possibility. It would be nice with only one UJ but the angle is to big.

Back in november, inspired by some of the available images, I tried to build some ornithopter like thing motorized (PU of course ) and it is very funny... although still a bit too big. Maybe I can make a simple movie with that. I know about your developement, lets see it!

That!! And also the dune ornithopter which is a incredible technic set, although not very mentioned around here.

I think that feature is not available in the current version (but I might be wrong). Assuming that, what I am saying is that if I were to decide, I would not prioritize that feature. I am all for the other features!!! :-)

Well, maybe you are right… I probably would not go that way… can be solved with current situation and there are other interesting things to do, like support for other remotes.

If you read a bit more about that example you will notice that it requires two remotes, one connected to each hub. So not an example of a remote talking to many hubs. I think you should consider the general rules: One remote can connect to a single hub at the time One hub can talk with other or several other hubs So you can, for instance, connect the remote to one hub and forward some of the commands to other hub(s). So I think the answer is yes, one remote, either Lego or XBox, can send commands to several hubs, but you have to have it connected to one of the hubs and handle the command forwarding to the other hubs. Allowing the connection of a remote to several hubs at the same time would arise several confusing issues, like which button is for which hub, etc. Also, most probably, remotes can't be connected to two devices at the same time

Your video is very cool! It’s incredible the amount of work behind the scenes.

This seems very cool! I look forward to see it walking!

There are extensions: https://pv-productions.com/product/powered-up-extension-cable/ But they are expensive... never tried them.

Very cool! Would two of these make good roll bars?

Just voted. Incredible contest, very good entries, and no cars, very refreshing! Voting system is very nice but it is more difficult to have to vote for all entries... Imagine a contest with 100 entries! It should be possible to vote only for the top N.
