This is such a nice build! Looking forward to the instructions.

The challenge was to build an alt build from two mashed up vehicles. Ā Whoever wins aesthetics win pole position. Then they race their builds on a mixed terrain track for 6 laps and whoever wins that gets their build immortalized digitally in Lego 2K Drive. Ā Iām not sure where you can watch it but maybe soon a snippet or clip will be available on YouTube.
Ā
It was a very fun episode and I always liked these kind of challenges. Ā This is like the destruction derby episode of a previous season of LM US.
Great find, this article is! Ā Nice insight on the production behind the scenes.

This was used for US Lego Masters Season 4 Episode 8āsĀ build and race challenge in partnership with 2K Drive.
I think they use 3rd party stuff coz Lego doesnt have fast and strong motors for this type of challenges, and the lack of physicalĀ remote controllers

As far as I know you can use the RI software o n the SPIKE hub as well?
RI software has end of life 2024. Ā No one can confirm yet if the unique features in RI will be ported over to Spike. Ā
ĀLEGO Education is announcing something new - Spike 3 - andĀ I donāt know yet what that announcement entails.
-
What motor is that from?
-
Ā
ĀWhat do you all think? š Ā Some people keep guessingĀ itās Wall-E š. This is for users and fansĀ of Rebrickable!

The Technic AR app may really only be playable with a few specific sets,Ā but you can still use to to bring your creations to life with the augmented reality environment.
Ā
Ā
Ain't that cool?
Ā
Ā
My second one is integrating the pullback motor to a sidecar that can be attached to Motorcycle 42132.Ā Ā Either side works depending on where you are in the world.Ā =)
Ā
Ā
Looking forward to everyone else's pullback hacks.
Ā
-
This is so impressive!
-
Letās see some hacks š
Iāll start with my mod to the Speed Champions Mopar Dodge Dragster (76904).
Iām looking to add the pull-back motor to moreĀ Speed Champion sets so I can have a drag race with same scale cars. Ā The challenge is definitely the size of the cars so maybe Iāll start with the SUVs.
Ā
Also tried the Technic AR app and sadly it does image recognition and only works with either the Mustang or the Porsche Formula E. š¤Ø Wish it would work with anyĀ carĀ too.

2 hours ago, Jim said:Any thoughts on the feasibility of this solution (without the large outer rim turntable, or possibly with the outer turntable).
I have used this similar simple solution with my 6DoF Arm and itĀ held up pretty fine.Ā Ā I didn't use any "bearings" for the banana gears like it was done with the Big Red/Liebherr or others' robotic arms.Ā Ā The banana racks in my MOC areĀ primarily just where the arm glides over.Ā Ā
ĀI think if the weight is evenly distributed between yourĀ wheels, the simpler designĀ should not be an issue.Ā Testing this with real physical model will give you the confirmation.

How do you attach the 2L beams? From the pictures, it seems impossible to do as I donāt see a way a finger could push those beams to the pins once the upper part is in place.
Ā
It is a very clever way nonetheless! Ā I may borrow this one someday š
-
Based on your initial design, I imagine this will really be huge. I sure hope it will be stable enough toĀ stand and āwalkā.
I too have a big robot moc in mind that Iāll be working on once I get more free time. I think I now have enough parts and electronics to make it work. And now having hub-to-hub officially supported is great!
I will take what I learned from upgrading Blast toĀ a biped and see how it works with a bigger version.
Will watch out for your updates and maybe can learn from each other. š

Thanks! It really is special š

Thanks! With the forums merged, thereās more to see for sure.

Is mindstorms formum merging?
Yes itās now merged to this forum. And clearly it worked, coz the Mindstorms topics are getting more views. š

Ian...Thanks! I thought so too š. Ā Iām still experimenting on code for its movements. I would like it to still be able to do the activities for Blast.

The contest is very interesting. Wish I knew about it during the submission phase. Good excuse to tryĀ vision AI and combine it with LEGO. Ā Iāll check out the rest and cast my vote. Ā Good luck with your submission!

Woohoo!

Same with Mr Jos,Ā this move is a big YES from me too!Ā Ā The projects being shared on the Mindstorms forum would sure offer some value to Technic forum readers and contributors too, I think.Ā Ā
Maybe a contest that require aĀ Mindstorms hub (old and new) would be a nice "welcome back to Technic forum" ideaĀ

Curious what big robot you have in mind that will need big turntables. Looking forward to see and read about it here. š
On 4/4/2022 at 11:22 AM, Mr Jos said:Hoping to see from both of you some content soon, as it's prettyļ»æ dead here in the Mindstorms forum (I actually sometimes think to just post my builds in Technic subforum to get more views/reactions).
I agree āļø Wish the Mindstorms forum is as active as the Technic forum. Not much feedback happening on the topics here.

I also made the matching Mini Biped Blast asĀ an alternate for 40413.

Mindstorms EV3, am I missing something?

Shameless plug š if you want to be something complexā¦
This MOC is a bit old now but still interestingly relevant. Ā Iāll be revisiting the design and programming soon to make improvements.
Ā
Other recommendation I have for you are the EV3 mocs of Antons MindstormsĀ https://www.antonsmindstorms.com/product-category/digital-downloads2/.Ā
Another recommendation is Dimiās EV3 creations, you can check it out here -Ā https://youtube.com/@DimitriDekyvere?feature=shared
