    Only one way to find out...

    May the Flying Spaghetti Monster hear you!

    You can try the SPIKE Prime app (manual installer here). Source: https://education.lego.com/en-gb/downloads/spike-prime/software

    That one is clearly in a smaller scale than the LEGO version, so not a copy of it. I'm not up-to-date on what LEGO MOCers do, however, so I don't know if that's a stolen MOC or an original design.

    Shh, don't tell them that. https://media.tenor.com/images/0243ae470d6447909876993fadcf8841/tenor.gif

    Well, actually, the 8448 came with instructions to integrate an RCX for "autonomous" driving, years before Tesla started massifying it.

    Besides, "ambulance" doesn't equate to "girl": my grandfather was an ambulance driver, and a friend of mine (who is a nurse) is a first responder driver.

    Depending on the size, weight and price of the lighting elements, the police car and ambulance could be that year's (most likely not 2021) pull-back pair!

    Refresh my memory please That project would probably apply to a fire truck as well. https://brickset.com/article/48887 Yeah, a fire truck could have interesting mechanisms and plenty of lights. An ambulance could still be a way to get lights at a lower price point, at the cost of less mechanical stuff.

    Mechanically speaking, an ambulance isn't different from a regular car; at most, depending on the scale, there could be some mechanism at the rear for loading/unloading a stretcher. However... if that lighting project LEGO showcased some time ago does come into fruition, a Technic ambulance could get a lot more interesting.

    You mean the propeller blades? From the Lamborghini.
  13. AVCampos
    Oh yes, a Blacktron II Osprey!

    Well, for example: Non-expandable storage; Less powerful processor; Uses non-standard battery instead of AAs; Less ports in total; LED matrix instead of a full display. I'm pretty confident that, if TLG doesn't make a standalone charger, third-parties will take care of that.
  15. AVCampos
    For example: Reduced size; Multifuncional ports (can be used for either motors or sensors); More visible LED matrix; Integrated accelerometer/gyro. Of course, it is worse in other ways.

    The BuWizz app doesn't require a controller, and if I'm not mistaken it also works with the Technic hub.

    Mars exploration plane?

    What TLG said is that the military connection is the only reason for this set's cancellation. If you believe them or not, that's up to you.
  19. AVCampos
    I think TLG and Bell won't want to stir things up in that front for a while...
  20. AVCampos
    But it wasn't licensed from a company that makes military stuff.
  21. AVCampos
    That could be something mechanically interesting, and never done in Technic before. Plus, there are a lot of stunt biplanes around, so TLG could have that excuse.
  22. AVCampos
    That also has the advantage of splitting the battery drain between two power sources instead of just one.

    You can make your own PUp cables without ruining components, some big Chinese online stores already sell PUp-compatible plugs and sockets.
  24. AVCampos
    If you use "dumb" PUp motors instead of L, you could rig up a simple cable splitter to stick them all on the same hub port. But you'd have to change the gearing, as I think those are faster and less powerful than PUp L.

    You can confirm this by going to the "Controller" screen in BC2, pushing the stick all the way to a corner and seeing if the values for both X and Y go to +-1. As for attaining x = 0.1, that's the difference between quality controllers and cheap controllers: with the cheap ones it's very difficult to have consistent values other than zero/full. That's a hardware problem, and the best BC2 can do is what it already does: give a choice between linear, log and exp.
