[TC27] Lowrider
Aurorasaurus replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I love it, its a cute size and it moves just like some excited little animal. During your video, when you showed the driveline, the chain of 4 8t gears made me laugh, its not something you could typically get away with. And the solution at the rear wheels for getting drive is really clever.- 20 replies

Looking at the photo of the engine bay, I see the old orange gear switcher exposed. -

Ahh, I forgot about the shock absorbers. That makes more sense.- 20 replies

Super cool! I can't quite tell from the gif, but it looks like the suspension readjusts itself to its previous position- did you do that manually or have you somehow made a script?- 20 replies

This looks great so far, I'm excited to see how the motorised suspension works in the final version.- 20 replies

42172 - McLaren P1
Aurorasaurus replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Well, while we're on the topic- I think the Chiron should have been a Veyron, based on my much larger exposure to the Veyron compared with the Chiron in media. Following this, I think the Sian should have been an Aventador. I'm not sure about the Porsche or the Ferrari since I don't really have any big feelings about any specific recent models from them. But, at least IMO, the Veyron and Aventador are more iconic than the Chiron and the Sian. Which is why I'm more happy to get a P1 than some new car I've never heard of before. (Artura, P18, whatever we thought it was gonna be) -

I can see a gear on a 5m or 3m axle axle with stop at the back. I think maybe it's for the spoiler? -

1:6 scale when? -
Since it's nearly the weekend, I might find some time to video this one. I recorded its top speed without a body at 20.2km/h on bumpy concrete. I'm using the slow output of a buwizz motor geared up 24:12 per rear wheel. The body is kinda disjointed, the rear is inspired by RX7's with ridiculous body kits, while the front is inspired by Porsche 911's. Im also using 3d printed wheel arches, since I don't own those parts yet. I'd be glad to answer any questions.

It's been a bit since I've shared any updates on what I'm working on, and I finally decided to sit down and make a post. I've built another 6x6 chassis, this time using 28t bevel gears for every wheel instead of 12t gears, meaning the whole thing is a lot stronger. Now I'm just waiting for a nice day on the weekend to take it out and test it some more. Until then, I have some photos and a video from testing the chassis. Some photos of the "finished" model It even has seats and a steering wheel! After seeing JLiu's race buggy, I wanted to make my own, with a larger focus on performance. With the big RC tires you can see in the left of the first photo, I was able to get it up to 20 km/h on the pavement outside my house. I think it could go faster on a warm day on smoother ground. I'm using 2x buwizz 2.0, and 2x CADA buggy motor, hard couple, wheels driven from the slow output. However, this model is more about being fun.. Soo, I tried some silly ideas out on it. I also tried 3d printing a tire from 95a TPU, just for fun. I'm quite happy with the tread pattern, but overall everything is too think so it is very stiff.

You're in luck! I received another Buwizz 3 and 2 motors today, so I'll gladly build this and test it out. I dont have the same tires you have, or the 3d printed frames and bearings, so the performance might not be perfectly representative. -
[APP] BrickController2
Aurorasaurus replied to imurvai's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
So, I have a slight problem with the app and was wondering if it affects anyone else or if there's a solution I'm not aware of. When using a technic hub, I can run set a port to a servo motor type and then set the servo range to up to 180°. This is perfect for me. The calibration doesnt go as far as it should for proper calibration, but that actually isnt a problem because of the ability to adjust the base angle. The issue I have is that I cannot set the servo range when using a Buwizz 3.0 unit. Im using the Buwizz units port 1, and I updated the firmware on my buwizz units a few months ago. My phone is a samsung S23 FE running android 14. Im using the 7th jan 2023 update version of the app (latest). If I should provide more information, please let me know!- 1,310 replies
