  1. I look forward to seeing it up close! For any Canadians in the GTA who would also like to meet up with a few Technic builders like Dugald and Lox, send one of us a PM for details.
  2. I have solely based my votes on the bots I believe would win in real battle conditions against each other. I did not penalize any bots for their use of ANY lego parts or the manner they were constructed. I also did not judge for poor pictures or videos. I judged mainly on destructive power, pushing power / arena control and vulnerabilities. Vulnerabilities included but not limited to: being flipped over, durability, protection of electronics and driving etc. I had chosen 9 bots which I believed were the best candidates, and choose six from that list. Of course driver control is a big factor which I tried to take into account as well. There were many cool designs so everyone should be proud. 20: 10 9: 6 1: 4 18: 3 15: 2 7: 1
  3. Indeed, it is looking like I will be! It is actually unfortunate the fenders are not made in white to match a real livery and a sticker package made.
  4. Like is an understatement! Thanks so much for creating the model and posting it to the Lego Ideas.
  5. It looks great, but isn't it basically a 6210 set now? I have both and was just going to move Minifigs from new to the old.
  6. Still no update for adding multiple ports to one slider or lights on/off switch?
  7. For such a small scale you have really captured the essence of the car. Amazing job!
  8. Thanks for all your work on this! I would really like to build the 2 buggy motors version with Buwizz battery option. I will try and work with the pics you posted. Any chance of instructions? I know room is limited but did you try using the RF battery box for the buggy motors instead of buwizz?
  9. Very creative! Did you document how you swapped 4L motors for 2 buggy motors? Depending on the performance, I would be interested in a swap like that! Assuming the tires on the front are not Lego parts? Look forward to seeing the video!
  10. Not sure if there would be much interest, but I think a speed contest would be interesting. It can be setup with two or more categories to make it more fair. Cat. 1 : Use of M, L and XL motors only. Official lego battery boxes only (AAA, AA, Lipo). IR, IR V2 and Sbrick allowed. Cat. 2 : All of the above and: Use of buggy motors and BuWizz are allowed. Rules: 1) ONLY Lego parts can be used except for Sbrick and BuWizz. 2) No altering of any electronics eg. shunting battery boxes. 3) You need to be able to adjust the steering so it travels relatively straight. 4) Maximum distance for measuring speed from a stopped position to be 100 meters. 5) Test needs to be run in both directions and average of the results is used. 6) Predetermined speed measuring app to be used only. 7) Minimum weight including the attached phone is X Kg. The phone can be placed anywhere on the vehicle. Required ballast can be placed anywhere of the vehicle. 8) Video is required showing both runs.
  11. The metal hook is an official Lego part so I don't see why you shouldn't be able to use it. I think it was an excellent choice using it!
  12. Where did you hear that? I had zero issues with using XL motors
  13. I have several and only two of them are in use. Wish more MOC's used them. Currently the only MOC I have them in is the Deadly Nightshade off-road buggy.
  14. Amazing work on the chassis! Lots of goodies packed in there! The top view makes the rear wing look massive compared to the car.
  15. @mwnilsson have you tried connecting the batteries in series as mentioned by @Boxerlego?
  16. I do agree with your general statement; however, it just seems it would have been so easy to implement multiple ports to a function without impacting performance or reliability. I didn't get Sbrick through kickstarter so maybe I set my expectations a bit too high with Buwizz. Then again; I look at the software of the new PFx and it looks absolutely amazing.
