the mclaren f1 car set compressed the front springs in a simular way and that seems fine -

Looking forward to seeing this . I don't think I've seen a model that used two spike prime/robot inventor hubs before.

Hi all, So, this thread is to include our MODs of set 42154 FORD GT. Here are some of my thoughts: • Lowered suspension in order to make the gap in the wheel arches less pronounced (but I also want enough suspension travel to be at least noticable) • HOG on the steering wheel. • Replace some blue/gray/whatever pins and axles with black pins/axles. ----Much later on---- • Steering via spike prime small angular motor. • Drive (not sure what motor is both best yet, obviously space is at a premium in this set, but I also don't want a crawler GT40. • Maybe a small 2 speed gearbox, non RC probably. There is almost every part in LDRAW to at least build it, but its tedious, and it would take longer than march 1st, where I would already have the set in real life. Regards, Snipe

I have one of these parts and they are not 1L unfortunatley, but around 0.8 or 0.9L thick which makes it pretty much useless to be incorporated into a technic moc- 5,466 replies

Well, if you look at the connector pinhole with 2 pins that they are connected to, the connectors are way lighter gray than the pin 2L with bush Even more weirdly is the fact that the pins don't go anywhere else, they just go into the connector with 2 pins and thats it. I don't think I've seen that in an official lego technic set yet. Maybe lego star wars did it but that's not my forté -

Yey! black shock absorbers on the front too also looks like we get at least 2 of these in flat silver: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=32054&colorID=95&in=A I wonder if the steering wheel rotates as well as the HOG dial -
Custom LDD bricks and fixes
SNIPE replied to Equilibrium's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Can we update the part names so that they show the part ID next to the names, if you mouse over a part in the parts bin. I know you can just drag a part into the workspace and look at the status bar but that is time consuming. There is a tooltip if you mouse over a part in the parts bin so perhaps just add it there. you could probably make a script that does it for each file automatically. EDIT: Also it would be nice if many parts were not placed relative to the LDD floor, at 0.5L offset by default (when dragging parts from the parts bin to the build window). I was looking at technic thick lift arms and some were alighted to the floor whilst others were 0.5L off set) All the beams were oriented with the holes facing the same direction also, so the parts orientation isn't what caused it Regards, SNIPE -

Anyone know if these two parts fit together? Also the upcoming stuntz sets have the small hoop pieces {77107} in lime, in purple and in orange, I thought the orange was bigger but I think its just photo editing trickery on lego's image(s).- 5,466 replies

Here is what I meant, though this is really nit-picky anyhow: part IDs are; 4770 and 58176 -

I tried this part in the sians paddle shifter as an alterative to the 24T gear and the four pin+1L beams. It didn't work however :/- 5,466 replies

The "nut" brick that pairs with this part cannot slide by hand, only by rotating the "nut" brick itself I got this information from a video review of the set it comes in. Anyway, I think that makes it probably more useful otherwise it will just be a pain in the butt if it could move under its own weight. A motor vibrating would just move it, etc, etc- 5,466 replies

That fresnel lens piece would indeed look awesome if used as headlight If it was redone in say, red, it would function as like a 2x3x2/3 double slope- 5,466 replies
