I'm sure I used one of these once because a half beam was slightly too thick for something. To get better with lego bricks you gotta think like a lego brick. it could maybe fit beside the teeth of a gear but without catching or grinding on the teeth.

I don't really review sets because people like jangbricks, sariel, AustrianLegoFan, etc already do a great job of it. :)

I'm buying this!, heres why: x6 new large linear actuators - AWESOME New 7x5x1 frame(s) - AWESOME New motors - AWESOME New control hub - AWESOME Everything else such as recolors, parts count etc - AWESOME You know what this set is? AWESOME.

I wonder if this meshes with a 16T/20T clutch gear, That would be sweet because you can then hook a liftarm up to it which can spin, or a 36 tooth gear. This part is for the new lego city fire 2019 pneumatic water cannon.

Can we use notepad to flatten a multi submodel file into a single model?

Thanks, I tried this as well as copying the whole %userprofile%/appdata/roaming/LDCad folder but still nothing. However when I copied program files (x86)/LDCad from one PC to the other, my color favorites, parts favorites, and LDCAD settings all were transferred to the new PC :) If this still doesn't work then I don't know what to say, maybe LDCAD was open so it failed to copy some stuff, but there were no windows errors. Regards, Snipe

Ah, I see Yeah this is something I've wanted to do as well, I'll try your solution shortly. Hopefully LDCAD wil have an simple option for this in the future

Hi, is there a way to export a favourites color, or parts list from one LDCAD installation to another? (different PCs) on PC1 I have a favorites list like the 'technic' category but with no bionicle parts in it. It is a little bit of a pain to create this entire favourites part list again on PC2 because I would have to add each part I want to the favorites list again. So, Maybe theres a way to copy it, most probably some configuration file that is stored outside of the program, however it would be neat for there to be an option to do it in the program too ('import favourites' / 'export favorites'). Regards, Snipe

Here is how to do it: 1. Open LDcad, click 'start a new model. 2. Give it a name, and click 'accept'. 3. Select both mpd files outside of ldcad. 4. Drag and drop the selection onto a new ldcad project (Maybe add an 'import option' for this in the 'file' menu). 5. Check 'use files by reference'. 6. Click 'Select'. 7. re-position the two models if necessary. 8. Click 'edit' > 'select'> 'all'. 9. Click on the filename box on the top right. 10. Ensure ''normal' is selected and not 'nested'. 11. Click 'edit' > 'selection' > 'reorganise' > 'embed unofficial content'. 12. Click 'yes' if a confirm message box appears. 13. Leave the optional prefix empty. 14. click 'ok'. 15. Click 'file' > 'save'. 16. Enter a filename. Now the files you dragged and dropped can be deleted without effecting your new model. The following error may appear if you maximise LDCAD: 'FBO initialisation failed. option disabled, if you want to try it again, re-enable the option in the open-GL preferences menu'. The above steps work, although in the sub-file list on the top right the two MPDs still have the old model names. using 'file' > 'clean up...' > 'remove' > 'subfiles not used by main file' had no effect, nor does saving it as .ldr instead of .mpd. But if you dont mind this extra clutter then its not much of a problem. Regards, Snipe.

Hi, are the wedo and boost motors compatible with the powered up hub? How about wedo motors and sensors with the boost hub / powered up hub? It would be cool to put a powered up hub inside of a boost model to get 2 more ports. Both are programmable and, IIRC, have bluetooth. I'm aware that the wedo motor cannot be driven from the boost hub and the boost motor is not compatible with the wedo hub. source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BJ0MQixVkA.

Cool!, thanks.

hi, I was wondering if you can use a single Buwizz app with 2 Buwizzes to control 8 independent motors? If so, how about 3 Buwizzes :D. I'm just curious because I know Bluetooth is more reliable and unlike an SBrick, the receiver and the battery is built right into the battery brick and some of my creations will have 2 or 3 Buwizzes so therefore 8 or more motors. They don't all have to be on the same page within the app. because phones have small screens and i'm using a phone, however it would be cool if this is possible for tablets or other android devices such as tablet-laptops, netbooks, and laptops.

It would be cool to see an RC gearbox with manual paddles, however with 7 speeds like the real car. I think Didumos69 made a 7 speed Bugatti Chiron replacement gearbox that should fit in the Porsche with some mastery.

I also noticed this, but I think its supposed to be a roll bar or something hence why it twists the axle slightly. Or its used to create a positive caster angle (AKA McPherson strut suspension)/

Wow the corvette A model is actually more advanced on the inside than I thought!. They could have moved/lowered the differential by 1L (yes it still meshes well with the 20T tan gear) but this solution is better cause we get a blue 20 tooth idler with double sided clutch with double bevel gear with double pinhole thingy.

@ligor my bad, The lighting made it look like a black 1x5x11 frame in one of the corvette images. Any new colors for the dogbones in these sets?

Wait this has a gearbox?

The yellow engine cranks were orange in the other picture

Oh so now it does not have a 5x1x13 frame in black all of a sudden! CMON MAN

Here is a list of new parts and re-colours that I have personally found for Technic 2019 models There might be some errors but here's what I got: New parts: Technic wheel arch 2x3x5x9 (white) (42096) Technic wheel arch 2x3x5x7 (orange) (42093) Technic sprocket 1x3x7 (yellow) (42095) New colours: Technic 1x1 beam with friction pin 1L (white) (42096) Technic curved panel 1x3x13 (white) (42096) Technic engine crank with axle 1.5L (orange) (42096) Technic 1x5 liftarm thin with axle holes at ends (white) (42096) (42088) Technic Curved panel 1x3x5x7 in white (42092) Technic Connector with two axles at 90 degrees in orange (42088) Possibly: Technic connector with axle at in black (42096) Rare colours: Technic #2 axle connector in yellow (70829) (not a Technic set but heh) Technic Axle and Pin Connector Perpendicular Double Split (42088)

No, the linear actuator also closes the claw when the arm is raised and lowered.

No, it's suspention because the tracks join onto the body by the top-most sprocket which is also where the spring ends therefore when the bottom of the tracks hit a bump it will compress the spring. The tracks can also articulate like on the 42069. Hopefully the grey axle that goes through the top-most spockets are split somewhere so that it can manually be skid steered.

technically its 5/6 functions: The red bush on the side of the boom can change the angle of the claw. The other red bush switches the gearbox winch speeds. One 12 tooth gear is for the cab rotation. Another 12T gear is for the boom elevation. The other 12T gear is for the whinch. oh also, suspention :D, opening cabin door.

What do you mean when you say 'gear ratios can be ajusted' that sounds interesting. Nice replica. I'm suprised lego did not use their brand spanking new batterybox+reciever and remote control. Maybe it needs to go down in prive first.

New small wheel fenders (2x5x7) *woohoo* edit: OH WOW 1x5x11 frames in BLACK for the rear axle (at 0:23) unless its a somehow a reflection, in the other parts of the video it is light blueish gray but this is a digital relrestnation, where as in 0:23 its real lego.
