  1. Good thing we don't follow the maxim of "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all!" That would probably kill the forum traffic pretty quick!
  2. And willingness to wildly overvolt the motors! I'm not sure if that video clearly shows what he was running them at, but I think it was something like 28V on the bench testing, which is well over what the motors are rated for! Super cool that it works, but you have to wonder for how long
  3. Really glad to see your progress! I'm glad you managed to get enough put together to get something entered here. Do you plan to continue work on it to add a tailstock, etc.? There's definitely a lot of complexity going on there!
  4. Very impressive work! I'm surprised that it works as well as it does!
  5. Oh, that's an interesting suspension! So I take it the suspension arms go past center and compress those center shocks? I don't think that's a solution I've seen before, at least not in combination with a more normal spring position!
  6. Looks impressive as always! Good, clean looks, and an interesting suspension setup!
  7. Ooh, that's quite good looking and functional, especially for the small scale!
  8. Wow, that is really impressive! So is the idea that you'd plug a Geekservo into this adapter, and it could then be controlled by PF power supplies as if it were a PF servo motor?
  9. That makes sense! When I started out with Technic, I mostly had access to Mindstorms NXT motors, so I built quite a bit of stuff with those. It was challenging to make space for them, but it's what I had!
  10. Oh right, I remember hearing about that. Yeah, other sites (Flickr, etc.) should work fine!
  11. Nice work! As far as images go, we have to upload our images to an external file-sharing website, and then copy the link from there to embed it here. Bricksafe is the most commonly used website for hosting Lego pictures on here
  12. That's cool to be able to see the mechanisms in isolation like that!
  13. Wow, seven differential locks! Would the real truck actually have three extra differentials in the chassis? Was there any particular reason you chose to use EV3 motors? Was it just what you had available? They're definitely fairly challenging to integrate into models!
  14. Always nice to see people sharing instructions! That looks like a lot of work. To share a 3D model, I'd just upload your .io file to Bricksafe, and share that link here
  15. Ooh, that looks very nice!
  16. Wow, that's a long time building straight! It might be worth getting in the habit of taking screenshots to share on here. Win+Shift+S would be the go-to keyboard shortcut for that, and it could be easier and cleaner to do it that way!
  17. I've had good experience with wheel hubs from Ali. The one thing you need to be aware of is that the ones I got weren't lubricated at all, but they also weren't glued together at all, so it was easy to lubricate them myself and superglue it shut! Since then I don't think there's any issues to speak of, and they're way cheaper!
  18. Wow, that is super fun! So much complexity and functionality! I especially liked the servo (or is it antiservo?) tab on the rudder!
  19. Wow, that's quite chaotic looking! I'm sure other setups could be more efficient, but if you enjoy that kind of environment, I guess it works for you! It certainly does have a fun "mad scientist" aesthetic to it, I think
  20. Wow, very cool to see how well it's working! Also the first time I realized that the boat hull was for resonance--I wondered why it kept showing up in every iteration!
  21. Cool! It's interesting to compare to the very similar model I made a while back: I'd say yours looks more refined and durable than mine, though!
  22. Are you talking about the bottoms of this assembly? Are those actually able to accept towballs?
