  1. For LPub3D or LPub 4 to generate step by step instructions, you have to use MLcad (not LDD) and add the steps one at a time yourself. At it's most basic: add some parts, add step, repeat. I have a lot of experience with MLcad and LPub3D, so don't hesitate to ask me for help .
  2. 1. yes but only through an adder, it would be easier (to hard couple them) if it was 4 L-motors OR 4 XL-motors 2. I think 6-8 M-motors, 4-6 L-motors, or 2-4 XL-motors. But it depends on how much they are loaded.
  3. Well, hopefully Lego will eventually make a modern PF version . Or you could use 3rd party RC motors...
  4. Lego motors are built very well, and I would think that any motor that is working will keep working for a long time. Two of my motors I have got came from a VERY used Hot Flame set (that the previous owner bought when it had just been released) and I have been using them for over 2 years now, and they still work great.
  5. No, not really. I have seen things get updated quite quickly, although I have never bought PF parts from Lego shop.
  6. My votes were based on what would be the most destructive, but originality would go to Mr Cuddles (30) . 1: 10 14: 6 20: 4 22: 3 18: 2 30: 1
  7. Thanks, I was looking for that page... I didn't see it in the Browse section . I resized them to 800 wide by Ctrl+Right-click and then Edit Image.
  8. It could also mean 2017! which would mean ZUX is correct:
  9. This MOC came about from my wanting of a super compact all-in-one Lego compressor, and after trying many different auto valve designs (and about a week of building), this is what I came up with: Video: Features: Air tank Automatic pressure switch M motor and 6L mini pump compressor Very compact 15 x 11 x 7 stud size Easy removal of battery box Pneumatic tube lengths: 1x 3L (2.4cm) 2x 10L (8cm) 1x 14L (11.2cm) All the pneumatic tube lengths listed above (and most of the other parts) are available in 8110-1 Unimog U400. Instructions are available on Rebrickable. The compressor uses a single 6L mini pneumatic pump, but can easily be modified for two pumps. The automatic cut-off pressure can easily be adjusted by changing the strength of the rubber bands attached to the pneumatic cylinder.
  10. I just said that because I once put 4 NIMH with 2 alkaline in a PF battery box, and both alkaline batteries started leaking after only 10-15 minutes of use.
  11. That's a lot of stuff just for a bit more power . Mixing different types of batteries is not recommended.
  12. That's what I meant, PF only has enough current for 1 buggy motor, but the speed is the same (I should know because I have PF and RC).
  13. They do actually, although the RC unit can power 2 buggy motors instead of just 1 with PF.
  14. Even 1 brick by itself is transparent, although I have tried that.
  15. I have a problem with building in Stud.io - every time I try to build or import, all the bricks are transparent: Does anyone know why this is happening?
  16. Hi I'm Mocbuild101! . Some of you will have seen me on Rebrickable, which is were I post instructions for some of the many MOC's I make. I like Technic, Mindstorms (EV3 and RCX), Power Functions, RC cars, electronics, and stuff that I can make in Lego, so I can always help you with anything you need to know about them. My favorite color is black (and sometimes very very dark grey...), so expect a lot of my MOC's to be black (although I do add some other colors!). Always building, Mocbuild101.
  17. I want one! but I can't afford it! I really like that you can still use PF remotes to control it, and I hope it gets enough backers to have it made.
  18. Here is the rules: GBC Standard More information: http://greatballcontraption.com and http://www.planet-gbc.com Some instructions: GBC Instructions Hope that helps .
  19. Firstly never go over 12v with any electric Lego parts, and try to keep the voltage as close to 9v as possible I can confirm this, all Lego motors are 12v inside because it is safer when 9v is used. It is actually rated for 7.4v and only has 8.4 immediately after charging.
  20. Probably like this: Which came from this topic (which you might want to have a look at).
  21. This is getting very confusing! Try copying all of the program, but using keyboard shortcuts. Like this: select all the blocks in program 1 (the one that works) and press Ctrl+C, then go into program 2 and press Ctrl+V, then just run it as normal. If that doesn't work then just make the degrees that the motors rotate bigger.
  22. Here is a much simpler way: (wait for button press)-(wait for button release)-(wait for button press)-(start motor) Easy! If you want I can make the program for you.
  23. As said by Philo in this topic: As for your main question, you can use the servo for whatever you want, it's just a motor that doesn't turn all the way round.
  24. It could be the batteries, but you could also try making the program slightly different: (motors on) (wait for degrees) (motors off -brake). that would rule out the slightly flat batteries.
