I asked one set alternative model contest before. My suggestion set limit - must be over 100$(or 99.99 something. least 50~60?) price tag. part limit - No spare part, No extra string or rubber band except already included in set. (Extra string or rubber band part rule can change but I can't acceptable spare part.)

Now I realize 64t gear can mesh with 16t directly and make 1:4 gear ratio. This gear will be super useful. Even I still want 32t.

It will be REALLY funny if city release BWE as construction set

We already make set smaller, so how about make set larger?

To me, this situation looks very similar to Meccano. This company also started by reproducing mechanical models, but as the years passed, the proportion of models reproducing exteriors gradually increased. Currently, the company is practically barely hanging on, while creators reminiscing about old products showcase amazing creations at exhibitions. If the Technic theme continues on its current path, it might end up like this. Given TLG's stature, the entire company probably won't suffer that fate, but the Technic theme is certainly going to fail.

That tire already released on city 60498 in this year. Ah no forget about that. It is actually new thin tractor tire. I think wheel is new in DBG also.

Seems like loader has least 2 11L flip flop beam in Bright light orange.

I hope it use same tire with 8110. It will be great succeeder.

I Finially got new curved gear rack in hand. And did some experiment for use monorail. This three combination is match rack gear with perfect backlash. Left - Single 20t gear between two train wheel Middle - Single 20t gear, two half bush, single round tile with hole between two reversed train wheel Right - Single 16t gear between two 50951 tire with roller guard This two is work but both has bad backlash. Espically left one is very poor. Left - Single 12t gear between two 80441 wheelchair wheel Right - Single 8t gear between two 1L beam For maximum possible guide roller distance, If you use full thickness gear this is maximum.(By the way, 28t with that setup is work perfectly too.) Without gear, this is maximum possible distance.

That's really cool! I think XL motor has bigger inner space so maybe it can be more powerful than L version?

Oops I'm so excited because I think it is 1:5 bike. That's sad we can't see proper offroad 1:5 bike.

Considering that TLG released other models using large quantities of parts in the same colors as the 1:8 car before releasing the 1:8 car, the LBG main colors seem reasonable. The Nissan GTR and Lamborghini released a large number of new bricks in LBG.

I uploaded it some page ago

Axle problem is really strange. Considering axle on model is 5L, and Lego already has 5.5L. That problem can easily fixed using 1L beam instead black bush. And beside of that problem, other end of drive axle doesn't connect to anything. It's just axle. Than why need that gear system?

Cough spike essential cough Earnestly, TLG unbelievably ruined C+/powered up.

So model T's tire size is 75x13. Same diameter with vespa and 7mm smaller width. Possible but protrude lot.

Thanks! I planned to make B,C,D model also like I did in studless 8480 but A model is not famous enough so I've completed the B model some month ago, but I've been holding off on the video, program, and instructions. I haven't disassembled it yet, so I'll probably upload them sometime.

C+/powered up is exactly that system. In fact, it's just 4 port mindstorm and have option on control model without programming self. I still believe the C+ system has the potential to surpass the existing PowerFunctions and Mindstorms lines. TLG just completely messed it up on the software side.

For my simple and quick test, looks like tire is very similar size with vespa. (75.1) Left one is vespa(75.1) and right one is old motorcycle tire(81.6)

Technic car transporter train

I hope normal green. Not bright or something.

Well, I thought there would be some difference, but I guess I was too optimistic.

Same friction with city's brick version

I know. I ment that too. Considering spur version has less friction than bevel version on parallel connection, I think if use spur type on those middle gear, friction will be decrease and propeller will spin more freely. And need to remind those spur version is still least x2 more expensive than bevel version currently. Price will decrease if spur version is included on this set.
