[help] studio crashed on me
Sadap replied to Bart's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Yeah I think that would help EDIT: Does it work with a different model? If it doesn't work there either, I would suspect that there are regressions in the latest version. If it works with with other models, the file probably is corrupted -
Hi TommyProductionsInc (and everyone else reading this) I'm also looking for a modern digital Lego building software that can simulate physics. I'm a software developer so I decided to try to develop such a software by myself. I started in October 2020 and put around 600 hours of work in it until today. But developing a software requires so much work. I think most non-programmers do not realize how much work is needed to develop software. I think there's at least another 500 hours needed until it's basic functions are usable. It's important to me that my software is open-source. Another important thing for me is that it runs on Linux, Windows and MacOS natively. The software will be free, but sponsors are welcome. The website and the GitHub repository are public, but I want to wait with an offical announcement until the software is usable. The parts library I'm using is LDraw so the parts are always up-to-date and I don't have to spend time to create new parts etc. If a fellow dev is reading this: If you have some free time and want to help me you can send me a DM. I'm using C++ 20, OpenGL and Dear ImGui. TL;DR a new software is coming, but you have to be patient

Question: Stud.io instruction designer
Sadap replied to M2m's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
What do you mean by "too big"? Does stud.io crash? -

Why don't you copy all the sub-files into one big file for rendering? -
Yes it would. Just put the rotor + tan 12T gear + black 3L axle pin in the hole from the other side. You also need to change the red light + stud pin so it doesn't collide with the gear. I always put some imaginary ping pong balls in the area where the propeller blades are and rotate the propeller in my mind. then i see in which direction the imaginary ball would be hit. This is also the direction the air will flow. I know it's a bit stupid but it works for me 42064 is wrong 9396 according to Sariel's video (https://youtu.be/N6_O1y1MVmM?t=537) the main rotor rotates CCW and the tail rotor too, but I think the tail rotor has 0 pitch 8812 wrong too

While watching Sariel's review of the mini helicopter (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NlCf0H2Nwk) I have checked the rotation direction of the rotors. Here you can see the main rotor turning CCW (from above). The tail rotor is turning CCW too (seen from the left side). That means the tail rotor is blowing the air from the left to the right (blue arrows) which generates a CW torque on the helicopter, but the main rotor generates a CW torque too. Can someone please verify my train of thoughts? Did I make a mistake somewhere? CW = ? CCW = ?

Swapping Lego motors 50X power?
Sadap replied to Aerolight's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
If you can solder, you can make a H-Bridge out of four discrete MOSFETs. That would eliminate the power issue. -
Using Relays With Lego PF

You are right, motors need flyback diodes too
