As a Gearbox guy I feel personally offended by this I made this compact 4-speed transmission prototype for you, took me like 15 minutes. Please consider using it. It shoud work with a similar shift system. The tan Gears are supposed to be the blue ones from the Bugatti, I just dont have any left. You might have to switch up some stuff, depending on what axle is your Input and which is your ourput.

[WIP] Ute supercar
Gray Gear replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Soft Springs? For real? I dont doubt you are able to create a very light unibody, especially if the car is not modelled after a real car, so you have more freedom in panel placement. But do think hard springs will be nececary. -
[WIP] Ute supercar
Gray Gear replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I would be suprised if you can keep the weight below 2.5 kg. My NSX weighs in at like 2.9 kg, and there are no electronics involved Still, 2 Hard springs per wheel should be able to support 3kg as well. Good thing you are using a solid rear axle, this way the shocks dont have to face the leverage disadvantage which exists in a independent suspension setup. -
Tiger 6x6
Gray Gear replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Wow, very clever, I thought it would work something like that after seing it move in the Video. I thought you were going for for a Truck-Like rim sepup, so the front wheels have less depth than the rear ones. This definatelly works as well. -
Tiger 6x6
Gray Gear replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Very impressive performance, and intresting suspension setup. Can you post some more pictures of how the rear suspension works? The color combination is a bit...experimental? But it fits the overall sceme of the Vehicle. I like the the Land Rover rims, but I would have preferred them on all wheels. The only thing I dislike is the front, it looks like a weird smily face. Overall a very mean offroad machine. -
LEGO Porsche Tiger GuP.ver
Gray Gear replied to NABLACK's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Very nice, I liked the Anime a lot, and this tank is represented very well. And this model is probably faster than 90% of the Supercars on this Forum, so, impressive performance. -

Gears-efficient gearbox
Gray Gear replied to technicmath's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
How do I remove a quote on mobile? Well, I am looking forward to a build utilizing this gearbox. It would find this pretty hard to incorporate in a Sportscar, as this design takes up quite a lot of vertical and horizontal space. But might be able to handle more torque than other gearboxes, so it might be good for Trucks? -
Gears-efficient gearbox
Gray Gear replied to technicmath's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Wow, I dont know about the math, but is there a better way to get this distance between the gears? Using Technic Bricks, ones with different hole placements as well, does not seem very practical to me. -

Can you please post some pictures? I dont seem to be able to imagine what you are describing, but I am always intrested in Gearbox/transmission stuff -
[Finished] Fox 8x8 V2
Gray Gear replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
YES! this is a great Idea, it would increase climbing potential by a lot! Or you could make it two sections with 4 wheels each, connected to one full length frame, that can pivot forwards and backwards as well, kind of like the Suspension used on some older Tanks (M4 Sherman had this I believe)- 56 replies

42110 - Land Rover Defender
Gray Gear replied to 1gor's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I would love to have more "transmission gears", I do see what you did there, but how can you control which gears should transfer power? Also, while it is cool, this takes up more space than the 4-Speed from the Bugatti.
