I suspect or the overcurrent/heat protection kicks in or the receiver is faultive. It can be a combination of both of course.

Very nice @Lasse. Looks very consistent and captures Matthew 14:22-33 perfectly I think.

Lets "fix" powered up!
JopieK replied to allanp's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
It is a shame that our German friend decided to quit his endeavors as he thought no one was interested. Pybricks also seems to be a viable solution: https://github.com/undera/pylgbst But adding something like an ESP32 (with e.g. Arduino) to the system would be nevertheless be a great way to solve these problems. As it is 'loose coupling' it would even be acceptable for the more purist fans. Maybe the Pi Hub (Build HAT) would be acceptable even for the purists as it was an official cooperation between Raspberry Pi and LEGO. If I get the chance (I mean if I have again a place to put my LEGO up and take it out of storage) I will definitely move to that direction I'm sure. -
Very nice Liam, a really great tank engine!

Looks nice @Kivi. I like the Faller items for inspiration too!

Great tutorial @Reker1000000. You could probably even make a DIY vacuum molding solution to replace the platic internals. I guess you could even mold styrofoam but it will be a bigger challenge.

It is a train, so should be fine here. But if you want it in Town, let me know!

Control your trains without smart device - with Pybricks
JopieK replied to Lok24's topic in LEGO Train Tech
There might be interest though (at least from people including myself). But sometimes people have other priorities. Mine include getting my PhD (part-time next to teaching) and building a new LEGO room. Still very valuable work @Lok24. Last week I was for my work at the inaugural lecture of a colleague at some other university and students were using the Py to control all kinds of LEGO hubs. -
What next vintage set could be recreated by TLG ?

Hopefully a tribute to the LEGO Trains 12V era :) -

Will be a great wagon to put batteries in in case one uses Powered Up and/or Power Functions.

Hi lentcity. Welcome to Eurobricks. I would suggest to start in a vector program like Inkscape or illustrator. There are many tutorials on YouTube etc. on how you create these effects. It costs quite some work but you learn a lot from that (I know as I have done it with many, many LEGO stickers in the past).
-
Nice work Andy. You created both a classic and modern look by combining studs and new parts and colors.

JopieK replied to The Reader's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Yup, very nice find! Especially for 60267 where the torso would also be perfect. (I happen to have all those sets, but that was for the animals in them :)) -
