LegoGBC Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) Hello I finally finished working on my new GBC loop. It has 5 modules: Pneumatic Tower http://www.eurobrick...35#entry1768940 See-Saw http://www.eurobrick...54#entry1716090 Android GBC Counter (V1.5) http://www.eurobrick...43#entry1684650 Drag & Tilt http://www.eurobrick...topic=85411&hl= Marble Pump V3 (no topic) -It uses 6 M Motors (the pneumatic tower takes 2 as I don't have an XL motor) -There are 30 balls on the track. -The GBC counter app says the amount of balls per second is 1.1. Not much to add... Enjoy the video :) Edited March 21, 2014 by LegoGBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrJB Posted March 21, 2014 Very nicely done. I built akiyuki's version of the pneumatic tower and it was a challenge ... I can only appreciate the thought process and the many iterations it's taken you to get all of this working together. Also, I found the pneumatics to run 'smoother' if I add an air-tank. Keep up the good work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captainowie Posted March 21, 2014 NIce. I like the mechanical timing systems. Tell me, do you you find (as I tend to) that your modules aren't as interchangeable as perhaps they should be? Could you set up your loop with any module in any position - allowing for those that turn corners - or would that involve tinkering with the inputs or outputs of some modules?

When setting the layout I did encounter problems with the modules that I havent experienced with them before and had to fix them. For example, I had to build an entierly new hooper for the GBC counter as it just couldn't handle the amount of balls arriving at the same time from the pneumatic tower. So yea, the modules aren't 100% modular you have to make some small adjustments... Edited March 21, 2014 by LegoGBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EyesOnly Posted April 1, 2014 Nice loop. I will hopefully find the time to work on my modules. Haven't done anything for months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
