  1. A new creation, and possibly a new world record holder in terms of accuracy (I still need to do multiple day long tests to verify this).
  2. Wow, what an enormous project! Fantastic work!
  3. My guess is that a true shock absorber wouldn't work very well at the small scale of Lego cars. Lego models don't bounce all that much because friction is doing all the necessary damping already; this includes friction in the "shock absorber" piece as well as the flexing of entire structure which is far less rigid than actual car.
  4. Thanks! Not really necro-posting, I plan to do some more experiments soon :)
  5. The saving grace is that the piece is light and completely unloaded when freewheeling. I would ony expect wear when freewheeling at a high speed.
  6. Probably longer than a spring-based solution. It can only fail by ramps shearing off/grinding down over time, and they seem to be almost as bulky as regular teeth. This is an excellent design.
  7. The new 64T gear already found its use With 2.25 seconds period pendulum, the gear does 1 rotation in 144 seconds. Add two 1:5 gear ratios, and we have 3600 seconds.
  8. Personally I have never seen hydraulic brakes on a bike Reintroduction of the flex system here would be fantastic. I like the looks of the Lego version much more than the ideas submission. Wheels with tyres are the obvious improvement, and the frame feels way too bulky.
  9. Exactly, there are no recesses because holes are less than 1 brick deep. Only the central axle part is 1 brick, gears need some side clearance.
  10. Yeah, the offfset makes them less universal, but there will certainly be some niche uses. The wheel as a whole seems like a perfect flywheel for large scale machinery (steam engine models etc.).
  11. I'd agree that it looks bad, wheels seem undersized.
  12. Wow! I don't know if I'm more impressed with the car, the truck or the camera vehicles Fantastic job!
  13. I figured there's no need for a separate topic for this MOC. Here's my very poor, first attempt at reverse-engineering a set: The model features working inline 8 engine with rear differential and a barebones 2 speed gearbox (actuated by the side lever). Gray parts are spray-painted silver like the rims, with moderate success.
