can't wait for the new big wheels :D Rc bikes will be a lot of fun for a while!

ahah absolutely true :P Unfortunately IP are a field where if you can't protect the base concept then it's just a race at who makes it better :D If tomorrow Ubisoft comes out with a drone racing game we're kinda screwed lol

I gotta say that i know nothing about laws and how the whole thing works, it is just my point of view about it, I didn't mention a pirated version, it's more like "instead of buying minecraft i buy another game that looks like it". It is legal, it's just a bit meh to me, but after all as long as builders have fun and make great builds it's nobody's concern :D I can see why Lego could be upset about it tho, that's it :D I'm truly not here to judge anyone!

I kinda agree but at the same time it's just like "i can't afford this videogame so ill buy the copycat of it that's cheaper" it makes sense, but surely it doesn't make sense for the original inventors of something. Lego invented a whole unique ecosystem wich took decades to develop, they should be the only ones selling it to be honest. Buwizz is a different thing, they don't copy lego design, they added a more powerful lipo battery to enhance performances, then they made the copy of an old motor that lego doesn't want to produce anymore even if the community wanted it really bad

i gotta say something not too popular i believe: am I the only one who thinks that TLG is TLG and they should be the only ones selling their invention? I know brands like CADA are cool because they give builders the chance of monetizing on their creations, but still, it kinda upsets me at the same time seeing a brand stealing another brand's idea like that. Personally I support aftermarket brands such as Buwizz as they provide something that's not a rip-off of somebody else's intellectual property but they add to it.

no not really, you kinda want to put it at the maximum degree the bike can lean and then get back straight on its own without you having to manually launch it again :)

the torque wasn't quite enough to make it reactive how i wanted and top speed wasn't great either... it works but it's nothing special

I had this early version of the bike (that i didnt like too much) wich was using an L motor and it was working fine :) maybe you can give it a try

that's awesome dude! Hopefully we're gonna see more people making bikes soon

Thats dumb but i understand they don't want troubles, thanks for taking the time to make instructions dude, i apreciate it a lot :)

ahah yep you're totally right! ill just make something for it :)

ahah brilliant

dude that color scheme rocks :D looks like a raptor i love it! im so happy you had fun with it :) thank you all guys i'm working on a new bike, i hope i can finish it soon!

thanks everyone for the kind words! I wasn't expecting all of this :D

this bike rips :D these wheels with the buggy motor with that weight are just perfect together I'm happy you and the guy from the video had fun with it :)

Thank you dude! Basically the battery is connected to the servo through a steering rack, so it slides one stud out to the left or to the right, that unbalances the bike into the direction you're trying to turn and the bike starts turning :)

dude thank you really much!! <3

Video up guys :) Sorry for the rushed footage but i really have little time to do other stuff than working lately :/ The bike handles quite well but compared to the others is definitely the one that has the worst performances/handling I'll try to make one with two L motors sacrificing the looks a bit but at least it should be better :D

uh i'm sorry about that! i will have to rescale them then! Thanks to everyone for the kind comments by the way :) tomorrow i'll try to shoot a video so you can see it in motion!

Hi everyone!! Since I started building bikes I've been trying to figure out a way of using the biggest wheels available paired with good performances and have a result that actually resembles a bike. Turns out that the dear old XL motor has the perfect torque for the job. The chain works great except the fact that under certain circumstances it tends to come off, a disc in front of the rear gear fixes it. I haven't shot a video just yet due to total lack of time but here are some pictures :) I hope you'll like it!

It would be awesome for real racing them :D I believe the smaller wheel on my one gives it a bit more acceleration than top speed My next one is even lighter and faster than my previous scrambler and having a shorter lenght is way more manouverable. After the 15th of august I'll go shoot a video of it and post it :) Hopefully more people will find bikes interesting!

i'm so in love with the design changes you've done to it :) <3 yeah in my video i was using scrambler tyres and they worked perfectly :) I love the way you made the whole frame stronger, ill rebuild it one of these days as soon as i got time

that's a must buy

that's nice to hear dude! i'm glad you're enjoying it I'm trying to redesign it in such a way it will have rear suspension too, i truly wanna make it go offroad, for now i'm not having too much success but it will work at some point :)

Hello everyone! Two years ago I've started this journey with a dear friend of mine of making a drone racing game on unreal engine called Rotor These days I was a bit burned out for all the programming and 3d modelling so I decided to make a technic version of one of our drones to relax a bit :D Just for the sake of it I put it in the game to see it fly but i won't upload a video until i'm sure Lego won't sue my butt (it won't be in the game anyway) I hope you'll like it here it is the game counterpart as reference when i'll have more time i'd like to make a half technic and half bricks version of it that looks more like the original so i can have it hanging from the ceiling of my room
