[MOC] Koenigsegg One:1 Summary
JJ2 replied to VKTechnic's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Really cool that Koenigsegg noticed this epic creation, I was there for some of the live streams, they were fun to watch. -
Massive 6x6 trial truck
JJ2 replied to Toni-23's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This is quite massive, did any drive-chain parts break? I'm surprised that soft springs were able to keep it suspended, I thought they would be way to soft. -
Technic 2017 Set Discussion
JJ2 replied to CM4Sci's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I like these new sets, the 42069 (I think that's its number) looks cool with the purple color, also 42070 has the new blue color which will mean a lot of new MOC's coming out in that color, and dont forget the #3 red connectors on the grill. -
Technic Pub
JJ2 replied to jantjeuh's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I think it would be better if it showed nothing if it was a thread you have not viewed but it just has the title in BOLD. then it could have a LBG #1 connector if you had commented on it and a DBG #1 if you had commented on it and it was unread. -

Sorry to be mean but this is very unrealistic, the JK8 from what I can tell is basically a Jeep Wrangler. The Jeep Wrangler has a 4x4 drive with live axles, not independent or pendular. Here is the front axle (Left( and the rear (Right) I would recommend trying to rebuild the suspension to make it more realistic. -
[MOC] Yet Another Supercar
JJ2 replied to PorkyMonster's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Agreed, with the rise of 3D printing I think that using non-Lego motors will increase, it would be cool if someone took the next step from using a 3D printer to making injection molded plastic parts to fit Lego but that may be a long ways off. -
Looks good, do the anti-roll bar links slide out? it seems like the ball pins would because of the angle.

Very nice MOD, I like the banana man for scale

General Part Discussion
JJ2 replied to Polo-Freak's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Has anyone disassembled a 32181 Lego 10L dampener before? I want too to make the dampening effect more like a real shock but I was wondering if trying to dissemble it would cause damage.- 5,445 replies

[MOC] Unimog U90
JJ2 replied to Thirdwigg's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Overall I'm not a big fan of the bodywork but the original is not great looking so you did a good job The way you went around the servo motor is cool but I think in the render the dark grey gear should be one more down unless I'm missing something. Did it have any problems with torque? it seemed to have trouble going over obstacles in the video.- 20 replies

JJ2's Custom part designs
JJ2 replied to JJ2's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I have designed a 20T single bevel because besides the 14T gear, they are the weakest, from my experience. https://www.shapeways.com/product/FBXCMPMNK/lego-20t-gear-single-bevel -
[MOC] 1:8 RC Pagani Huayra
JJ2 replied to Sariel's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Stunning creation, HOF quality, the only nit-pick I can say is the front is mainly flex axles while the back is almost completely panels. -
JJ2's Custom part designs
JJ2 replied to JJ2's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I have designed another servo horn to fit THIS servo, it has a much smaller output then the standard servo I designed the other one for and has 21 teeth opposed to the 24 teeth of my last one so it did not work. https://www.shapeways.com/product/JTXKFT35T/lego-technic-servo-horn-21-spline -
Technic 2017 Set Discussion
JJ2 replied to CM4Sci's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Here you go -
Try going to your models, you can access it by going to the top right of the screen and hovering over your profile picture and clicking on 'models'. It then should bring you to where your designs are stored so then you can edit them. Click on the model and find "Edit project with this model" (on the right side opposite from the name) and click that and click on what comes up below it. On the next page it brings up the top option should be "offer for sale to others" and "display to the public". Check both of those and it should then come up for sale.

I have the un-chamfered ones and I noticed one thing, the holes do not allow for pins or axles with stops to be flush with the hole, so I would recommend using the chamfered ones if you need to use the holes with pins frequently. The holes not having a place for pins to rest will shorten the life of them but not noticeably.

Lime supercar with 3rd party parts
JJ2 replied to JJ2's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Ok that makes sense, why not use a Nimh battery at 7.2V, I have a 2000mah and a 5000mah, both work very well.- 29 replies

Lime supercar with 3rd party parts
JJ2 replied to JJ2's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Wow that is a quite high torque motor, would you mind making a video? It sounds really cool. I don't know the KV of my motor because its a brushed motor but I think a 540 brushless like @PorkyMonster used will do the job for larger scale like 1/10 scale models, but since it is larger it really limits your options if you want to build small (for me at least). I would recommend using a 380 sized brushless motor for models for anything smaller then 1/10 scale because those motors are small and have quite a kick. Amazon is where I bought my parts but I bet you can get them much cheaper on RC planet or other stores.- 29 replies

Same here, I like the long nose better, it gives it a more menacing look. This was most likely answered in the tread earlier but why are there motorcycle tires on the Porsche rims? are they just placeholders?
