It has 6 internal Gyro/acceleration Sensors

Hi all, it's now officially announced for 4. quarter 2020 https://brickset.com/article/51850/fourth-generation-of-mindstorms-announced

There are two things that are on the roadmap that I would preferre: Support for the "City Hub" and what I think is really essential, is the " remote handset" Why? It offers the chance to influence the behavior of the program without any smart device. And that's what many users complain about. Trains: A City Hub, two technic motors and a handset to control ....

Thanks, I did now: from pybricks.hubs import * And yes a little patience when turning off is usefull.

Indeed. I'm just trying to show the battery.voltage(), but don't know what have to import, CPlusHub ? And how to turn off the hub? (Except removing batteries.....)

Hi all, just got the chance to test, and at a first sight: - perfect description of how to start - everything works as described I spend perhaps 10 Minutes with - Installing Crome 85 in Win10/64 - Copy the new firmware to the Powerd Up technic Hub - copy and paste the code-example into the browserbased development tool - Connect hub - Start program - WORKS!

You're right. Then "City" is the wrong name. But hope my idea is clear: split the programming (for all PU components) from the preconfigured functionality for specific sets. What is wrong? Boost-App for one set 1701 to learn programming - ok Control+ for advanced function in technic - Sets - ok Powered Up app for System Sets - ok Strange: The city- Sets in the Boost App The Boost Druide with a seperate App Programing for all not seperate Indeed, like naming fish "fish". In fact it called itself Hub No. 4 in the beginning, I think now it resolves as "smart Hub" in the Sofware.

No, please note the difference between known and published. Yes, and that's the problem. It has nothing to do with, it's just in the sets for which Control+ /which is no hardware but an app) offers advanced functions. Its not only LEGO who did that confusion, it's the users in fora all over the world. The reason is that the "LEGO names" are known since the parts are seperately available in the shop. But the parts were in the market before in the sets. Of course LEGO could have communicated better.... But there are still users who deny that you can use the technic motors or the technic hub outside the sets. Which is possible since a very long time. The main problem ist the Powered Up App. With Boost App(s) you have apps assigned to specific sets. With Control+ App you have an app assigned to specific sets. With Powered Up App you have an app assigned to specific sets. But the common app for all Powered up components is part of the Powered Up App as well. It would have been much clearer to use the generic name "Powered Up App" only for that and set up another called i.E. "City App" for all the city sets. And the other "Powered Up Programming App"

I agree. For the purpose af a label and to identify a part in a discussion that doesn't seem that important to me.

THX, im checking my spam folder permanetly

I agree There is only one (the oldest) without a tacho. The "simple" one. (and of course train...) All others send angles to the hub. Then, appending something, you had to reflect that the hubs are very different too, according FW, batteries, usable stand alone and so on. What is the purpose of such a list, and who should use the names? Who is the "anyone" mentioned above?

True, but that's a problem we won't solve here. Here ist the description of the Technic XL motor from the shop: US Includes a connecting wire and connector for LEGO® Powered Up Hubs (required, sold separately). LEGO® Powered Up Technic™ Hub required (sold separately). (second is definitely wrong) Germany Erfordert einen Powered Up Hub (separat erhältlich). my translation: "requies a/one/some Powered Up Hub (sold separately) But in summary the connections are explained (partly) in the desciption.

Yes, a good approach, but I would prefer to drop the properties to make names short and simple. And same as in specs and shop. Simple medium motor Simple train motor Medium linear motor Techic Large motor Technic XL motor Technic Medium Angular Motor Technic Large Angular Motor 2 port WeDo 2.0 hub 2 port Move hub 2 port System hub 4 port Technic Hub 6 port Technic Large Hub (as you see: "x port" is not needed ti identify, but make it perhaps easier to identify)

That sounds logically. Let's see what happens. But now I fear you are right....

Have a look at the shop: the part ist called "move hub" and in the description of the robotic set it's called "move hub" as well. One real problem is that LEGO use the generic "smarthub" and the same as the name for a specific hub (Hub No.4). According to the technical specifications that are available as a PDF the "Hardware name" is "Technic™ Large Hub", as I wrote above. Please note that the PU protocoll has markers for "technic, "System", "weDo",and so on Yes, which was clearly shown in the post of Mr Hobbles. So why trying to find newe complex names? (of course there are very "official" names, according to the Design-ID, but they aren't really useful)

Sorry I did not mean "cars" but constructions like the batmobile where you use on/off of one motor for steering. Like Batmobile, like Boost In standalone it doest just the same as the PF remote with two levers, and all technic modells had that for years.

Thanks a lot, that looks very good!

That would be very strange. As shown in the past the set will be included in the list of set-icons, there will we a seperate surface for the train, like with the disney train or the haunted house. A change of the behavior would not be funny who use the remote (it's not a "train" remote") with cars or the move hub. your referre to a rumor.....

Hi, the info that thes are powered up components is missing almost completely, and the naming according to sets or themes is not useful in my opinion. Example: there ist no "Boost Hub", it's the "move Hub". There is no "Spike Hub" (as it is used in mindstorms as well), its called "Technic™ Large Hub" Same with motors. The "simple motor" is used with Lego "System" too, and not only WeDo. Your naming according to sets and themes confuses me. In this post you have very precise names This idea is the most confusing of all. "Control+" is only an App that adds addtional functions to models, more than just moving. There is no "Control+ Hardware" According to Hubs: I would use WeDo Hub (Smart) Hub Technic Hub Move Hub Large Hub As you see: all these names are much "simpler" than yours.

Sure, put batterybox and receiver in the cab and a motor in the "nose"

Ah! I'm not So I have to wait!

Hi, what's your experiece how log it takes to get userid/pw for the platform?

@dr_spock Hi, just found that image http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=6640742 Looks interesting, what type of connectors are those white parts?

Very interesting, thanks. Where did you get this information from?

Hi, there is a remote control for EV3, the receiver is the IR-Sensor. Both in set 31313
