  1. I like the idea of transformers. I made one for TC7:
  2. Very good work, it's a speedy boat. I like the low profile, the electrical components are nicely hidden. By the way, didn't you go swimming with the first version?
  3. Very clever solution. Have you tried it with 2 axles? Since they're independent shifting might occur at different times.
  4. Very interesting leg design, and the stability system is simple but effective. The dangling batteries at 3:55 had me laughing, as I've also temporarily attached batteries to test out mechanisms. Overall great work, I'm looking forward to the next iteration.
  5. Gears skip when they aren't braced enough, and the axles can change position. 90 degree transfers can be braced properly using this piece when space is an issue: The build looks very interesting so far, I'm interested to see how it progresses.
  6. This was going to be my exact comment. The wind deflector on the roof is made out of the curved panels, and doesn't look out of proportion. Excellent work, its a beautiful truck.
  7. Saw this today. The linkage solution for intermittent motion is gaining popularity. https://twitter.com/05_okome/status/1299310973191254020 @05_okome: 無限に見てられる https://t.co/Q6CNCx4Qlg
  8. Awesome job, so many functions in a tight space.
  9. By the way @RocketPuppy and @Didumos69 brought up a very good point - this is a very inefficient way to transfer power. I would suggest using a very high reduction instead of a worm gear, it should help stop the car in place without power.
  10. I made a calculator last year to check gear fits. I think it may have a couple of bugs in it.
  11. You will need to unlock the output of the worm gear to make it work, hence the second gear selector. Red = input Green = output Gear selectors need to be synchronized, but work in opposite directions Here's the LDR file if you're interested. Bracing not included.
  12. A strong Geneva mechanism with minimal slack in Lego is almost a Holy Grail. The ones that I've seen are either huge, have a lot of play, or only work as a proof of concept and could not support high torque. Your solution looks to be more locked in place than those, and looks like it could be refined to be stronger. I'll second @1963maniac, could you please post some pictures of the assembly?
  13. Neat machine. I like the old school parts used in the build (rear tire, 14z gears etc). Is there only one differential (central), or does it have a second one for the front wheels?
  14. Welcome. It's a neat little build you made. I would suggest using a different hosting service for your images, as eurobricks.com doesn't give you significant storage space. You can use Flickr, brifksafe, or any other similar service.
  15. Great looking nacelle. I didn't see any space for moving components in the WIP pictures, any chance of squeezing in a at least the first stage (single row of blades) of a turbine?
  16. @I_Igor Regardless of the gear type selection, you will need 3 gears to have the servo output aligned with the steering shaft. This will create slack, no matter the option. In my experience the only way to avoid this is to have direct steering.
  17. Great little project! The slow motion shots in the video are awesome, they really show the behaviour of the bike when faced with physics. How long does the battery last?
  18. Nice model. By the way you can select different materials for colours, such as rubber or transparent. Right now the tires are set to plastic, which is why they look so shiny.
  19. This is a fantastic looking build. Are all the grill parts available in yellow? Might make it more coherent to match the camshaft parts.
  20. Who else is having fun? Maybe we should coordinate our efforts. By the way Step 297 has an error in it, the 4L tan axle is pushed in too deep through the tan bevel gear. It's corrected in Step 301.
  21. What parts were you planning to make?
  22. First 10 steps in case anyone wants to use them. Edit: @Ngoc Nguyen Page 174 of the instructions is folded, can you please post it?
  23. This is looking great. The A10 is one of my favourite planes, you are doing it great justice. Just don't let the German Peace Society know.
  24. Apologies for the late reply, but this Speed Champions set has a Ford F150 with rubber band suspension. It's incredibly well done. I get the feeling that it won't work in large models. https://www.lego.com/en-ca/product/ford-f-150-raptor-ford-model-a-hot-rod-75875
