    just a moment: I'll edit this link with the topic of the advanced version of that robot ;) EDIT: http://www.eurobrick...opic=104571&hl= this is the link, you can find there an LDD file, it is powered by a green rubber-band ;) not a lego spring thank you, next week I'll post a small tournament with 3 robots ;)

    happy that I've achieved my goal: make a funny and interesting video :3 yes I have a lot of fun playing this match and it is really captivating (you heard scream for the goals as a real match :laugh: ) thank you so much!

    thanks! I tried to make an nxt vs PF fight but I think is something really unbalanced, because a sumo robot is only something that move randomly on the field an hurt the opponent, while a "human driven" robot can aim to win the opponent without program limits, or also escape to its attacks. so a PF opponent is useful to test the strategy but is also something you will not find in a sumo competition… anyway, if an ev3 robot win a PF one (with same power/weapons) I think it is really well made and well programmed! I'm interested on make an NXT hose robot :3

    Hi to all! waiting to the sun to film the RC Dawnbreaker I've edited and posted an old video that I've made to test my battle bots: crab and scorpion. During the video me and my cousin were talking in italian but don't worry: i've added some subtitles just to translate our wisecracks ;) Some stats about the robots: GRANCHIO (crab) weight: 900g weapons: claws motors: 2 XL(wheels) 2L(claws) strengths: 4x4, can keep the ball weaknesses: (hardly) flippable SCORPIONE(scorpion) weight: 900g weapons: flipping arm motors: 2 M (wheels) 1 L (reloading winch) 1 old 9V (gearbox) strenghts: atomic-like powerful weapon, defensive/offensive weapon weaknesses: hard to control (really), low traction enjoy the video (likes and comments are welcome if you like it ;) )

    its speed is more or less 5km/h ;) unluckly today probably is going to rain and also tomorrow, so you have to wait long time for the video :'( BUT i've just uploaded a new video on my youtube channel and i'll make a topic just right now :3

    hope I can film something tomorrow, but I'm not sure yes, I changed the rear wing, just because of my taste on the rear axle that configuration IMHO is the best one for a good ratio of speed/power the use of an old 9V BB could improve the cockpit also using a 4M axle with stop instead of the 5,5 one, I could try ;) you car was really well designed (mine is only one stud longer and has that shocks absorbers :3) considering your limits due to the contest ;) and this motorized version is really simple-roboust-funny because it has a good starting MOC proud to be the first to build a MOD of yours creation the idea comes when a frind of mine asked me to buid a car for his brother, and searching something simple to buy and make yours is the best being taken from two sets :3

    Hi to all! Proud to present you my latest MOC… ops, sorry, my latest MOD! First I have to thank MajklSpajkl that made an awesome MOC, but he has also made my work possible, so I decided to put some link to his creation: original topic, (where you can find instructions)second here is my MOD: important pieces I've add: -lipo BB (same size of the AAA one) -M motor -L motor -receiver -16M axle (EDIT ) -yellow shocks -U-joint I built this in more or less 30 minutes but it is a really funny creation! is has also a particular return-to-center steering based on an old force: GRAVITY! how it works it is simple (hope I can explain it as simple as it is ahaha): the car has an high caster angle, this angle auto-center the wheels while running forward, I've put the M motor directly linked to the steering 5,5 axle and it works well! in fact when the motor move the steering it forces the mechanism so when you release the command this elastic force make the motor turning back more or less at the center, it is not important that it is perfectly centered, because the high play of the steering make the caster angle center it with more accuracy :3 here are some photos (it has different colors because i've not built it from the two original set)

    the lightgray one at the top of the picture, check into mt topics ti se how i've implemented it in the truck ;)

    the strange light L shaped brick is really useful to keep gears in places (3 gears chain) I used it in my molotov baikal to make the gearbox more strong, but it could be useful in every veichle that requires one motor, a central transmission and some axles :3
  10. PKW
    maybe i'm really not good with english but I've understand that part of the mechanism, only I haven't find out what piece you used, but I thnk you used the hub from the 8048 connected to the new hub, nice idea!
  11. PKW
    can't understand how your steering works, but from the photos it seems that you don't want to show it ahahah, how the hubs are linked to the liftarm and how it to the servo? another thing, do you have problems with the panhard and vertical stresses that requires the compression of all the two shocks of an axle? like a landing after a jump ;)
  12. PKW
    I really like your idea, only I think That the front spoiler should be larger, but this is my opinion,forse sure It looks great :3 EDIT: another upgrade could be To reduce The gap between The front wheels And The real body,making it shorter, the gap should be like The one of The Green /White virtual one
  13. PKW
    smaller wheels are The one from The old, And green :3, lego motocross, I don't remember The number of The set,They are white. anyway nice MOC!!
  14. PKW
    are You sure that the gravity center Is in The right place? It looks like It is Too near To the nose
  15. PKW
    those axles are connected with u-joints To the LA and I use them To tune (pull or loosen) the strings ;) unfprtunatelly the toner are not the same ad the real song but thet listen like :') (not look like ahaha) odd for me il really Good ahaha, I'm planning To make a mechanism To make it like a mechanic robot, some tracks are needed :3 yes you got It! @darsedz I'm using a ship keel (without cover) it works Well ;) it is the softer one I think from set 7906
  16. PKW
    interesting project But, a I know, sandrails are RWD Not AWD...
  17. PKW
    You can't play it or unzip it? The first maybe because it is a .m4a from My ipod vocal memo the second maybe because it is zipped from a Mac(?) try tu unzip it with winrar or use qicktime player To read it I'm not An expert about computers :(
  18. PKW
    yes It is, i need To make strings nearer To what in a guitar/bass is The handle or pressing The strings i'll lose tuning, they are made of plastic :') It is a Song from 1969 and has famous remakes during The 70s, its title is something you can eat :3 you can use, like me ahahah, lego axles To pluck strings :3
  19. PKW
    Song Lego Instrument 1.mp3.zip here is a file! if you can recognize the song I'll be proud of me and my "instrument", I'm planning to make a harpsichord :3 so if one Mod can change the topic in "PKW's lego instruments" I'll be grateful enjoy, it is really short due to the 100K limit of the site
  20. PKW
    The red part of My rc motors is broken because It falled from My table ;) love this chassis *-* are You planning To make fake shocks like the oiled shocks in The real one? nice way To connect The motor to a fake engine :)
  21. PKW
    working on it ;) but I'm a drummer I'm not really able with springs mhhhh… I think the fail of a lego "box" is not only the gaps between pieces but also the vibration that they can bring and spare but you can use a lego bionicle box if you're a purist :3 PS someone knows how I can add a 200kb file? or I have to cut my audio? however it is only A try I think it doesn't matter if it is a short ATTEMPT to do a song ahahah
  22. PKW
    after my strange and complicated 6x6 (that no one likes I think ahaha) I decided to build something simple that is extremely rare :3 I got the idea just today while playing with a broken white-out and looking to its transparent (because empty) string I remembered that plastic strings can be folded up to obtain stronger strings… i folded up, twisted several times one piece and i pull it, while plucked it made a good sound :3 so more or less in 2h (tune this instrument is not simple ) i built up this MOC, it is only a concept and it need (as rare part) only 4 LA it works like a pluck instrument or a guitar, but is has only 4 string like a bass (like a boss ) i use a minifig spear as plectrum, hope I can upload a audio memo file soon, this is the "guitar" -LAs are to tuning the strings -withe-out strings twisted with one L motor - a normal box as a loudspeaker - from the longer to the shorter strings are tuned in: C4 A4 C5 F5
  23. PKW
    I think that new members don't want To post pictures or share their own building id no one is interested in It, il so sad make topics where You have To talk alone :(
  24. PKW
    Yes i did ;) i dont know if volvos have live axles or indipendent suspension :3 anyone has got an idea how I can make the aestethics? I really need help,I can also make an LDD file if you want To build up your bodywork :3
  25. PKW
    New linkages for the front axles added, really better, I have also a concept bodywork but I hate a little bit aestethics :D ahahah
