    An awful lot of work has gone into this. At any point in time, you could have said: "this is good enough", and it would have been an impressive build. But time and again you seemed to have said to yourself: "no, this can be even better". Lovely stuff mate. The work of a perfectionist!

    This build oozes character, congratulations :)

    Thanks all for your contributions. Enlightening stuff. It's a shame that TLG is so stingy with giving out information regarding the supply status of its products. This is rather important data for me.

    Just a silly question. Does anyone know what happened to the 21980 motor? Several months ago I ordered some from LEGO.com, but now I need more and I can't find them anymore. Not even as a discontinued product. Has anyone seen any official news about this perhaps? I am not as up-to-date on LEGO news as I once was. Thanks in advance. Kelk

    Thanks, that was exactly the reaction I was going for ;). You can find more about it on my Facebook page and Youtube: https://www.facebook.com/Kelkschiz/ https://www.youtube.com/c/kelkschiz

    Epic stuff, reminds me of old school anime :)

    Just for some levity in current times. Ever wonder where on earth all the toilet paper is disappearing to? Does Blacktron have something to do with it!?? Just take a look at planet COVID-19... Please feel free to share

    Haha, so long and thanks for all the fish!! I feel it is a catch-22, If I mark my video as "made for kids", it would be like saying that I think my videos are appropriate for kids. But I actually think that due to language, complexity, and themes, they are not appropriate for kids. But if I mark them as not for kids, I run the risk of going bankrupt. I will be screwed either way...

    I could stare at such a model for hours. Beautiful work .

    I would also consider waiting unless you need something right away. As far as I see it now, Control+ will both have positive and negative aspects to it. From what I know, if small size and power are your thing, than the old PF systems would be the way to go. With a Buwizz if you want even more power or an Sbrick for controllability. Control+ motors are bigger and seem to lack a little in power. And of course Control+ will likely never get something as powerful as the Buggy Motor. But if you are interested in controllability then, I think, Control+ would be the way to go in the future, because C+ motors can all act as servo motors, which is a big plus.

    Impressive work Nablack. Bit curious about the 12.... L Motors. Saw the video, it really moves! Well done pictures and video as well. Very nice to see another tank builder.

    Hi István, First of all thank you for your continued work on this fantastic app. I really like the changes you made to the UI and the new features. Also great to hear that there will be a version for iOS. Been playing with BrickController 2 0.71 on my two adroid phones. And I am running into some issues that I would like to report: - The most serious issue is that BC2 has a problem connecting to my Buwizz 1 on my new Xiaomi Mi A1 phone. That phone runs android 8.1.0 and bluetooth 4.2/HID. When I go to devices and look for new devices it will find my Buwizz, but when I want to connect to it, it will never establish a connection. I am not having this problem with my old Huawei G620S-L01 that runs Adroid 4.4.4. On that phone I can test and use the Buwizz without issue. - The second issue I am having is that a control profile can go buggy. And once it's buggy it won't start/play anymore. The only option is then to delete the control profile and make a new one. I've had this happen when trying to link several gamepad buttons to a single output. The old BC app 0.32 had no problems with this. - I also have a question if you don't mind. Does the new app support controlling a tracked vehicle by joystick, like the old app did? And if so how do you set it up? I've tried several things but the new app handles the joystick differently so the old scheme doesn't work anymore. And I can't seem to figure out how it works. Every time I try something the control profile will go buggy on me. Thanks in advance for your time and effort.

    It seems TLG is thinking the same thing as you are:

    Good info, thanks for making the video. Very curious to know why sariel's findings with the Power Up were so different...

    Very interesting topic! I think I gained a much better understanding of how LEGO works, in particular about the studless and snot techniques work. Also through building them, I've learned a lot about how certain vehicles work internally. My style has refined itself, I can now build things that amaze me. It's a wonderful experience. In about five years I went from this: To this:

    Well this new PF system seems very underwhelming, at least for me. 3-5 meter range outdoors is not much of an improvement over the old PF IR system. Also not impressed with that it only has two control ports. Unless I am overlooking something, it looks like I'll be sticking with my Sbricks and Buwizz. I'd really thought TLG would have come up with something a little bit more competitive.
  18. Kelkschiz
    Well perhaps not autonomous, I like to imagine a future where minifigs are still relevant. But other than that, those wheels indeed look sweet for an RC battrax ^^.

    Looks like this set has a good part selection for this old Blacktron builder. I think I may get a couple of these.

    I think the value of the Boost is good at the moment. But I do find Boost too limited for my needs. I got myself a second hand EV3 a while back.
  21. Kelkschiz
    Looks nice and compact and some very good performance :)
  22. Kelkschiz
    Ah now I understand. Well the hull is loosely modelled on the T-54 which also had some slack there I believe.
  23. Kelkschiz
    Thanks, it was very nice to meet you as well. You are the first Blacktron builder I ever got to meet in real life. And I thought our MOCs made a very nice display. Thanks! :)

    Thank you! I will be releasing a video in which i will be talking about the technical details of this build. But I will also give you some answers here. It has a torsion-bar suspension. The magazine is powered by a simple rubber band. The shooting mechanism I used in this tank is one that was designed by Zack Macasaet, more specifically I reverse engineered it based on the videos of his t-34. I am not sure if I will make instructions yet. Thanks my friend, don't i will ever go fully contemporary though. Blacktron is sci fi and need to stay sci fi. That this machine looks contempory is a coincidence :P Thank you. Doing a little better now. It's all just software. As far as I know it's an undocumented function :). So what you need to do is have the control of both motors linked to the horizontal joystick uninverted and also have both motors linked to the vertical joystick but of these one needs to be inverted. However this all depends on the physical setup of your motors. it's possible that you will have to exchange what I said with the horizontal with what I said with the vertical depending on how your motors are placed in your MOC I couldn't understand what your concern is about, could you please clarify? Thanks Miha :) I can recommend both gamepads though the build quality of the Ipega 9077 feels a bit better. https://www.gearbest.com/game-controllers/pp_774490.html bought it for 14 Euro at gearbest https://www.gearbest.com/game-controllers/pp_690140.html bought it for 10 Euro also at gearbest

    I've asked István the same question and this is the answer I got. Works perfectly, although you sometimes have make the outputs on the vert joy opposed instead of on the hort joy.
