[WIP] Third Party Motor
zux replied to MrNumbskull13's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Have you tried running motor with gears for longer time? I would worry about gear overheating due to friction, as motor spins really fast. -
problem with 8297-B MOD
zux replied to Lauris's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I have discovered similar issue some time ago. My suggestion would be to use 42000 wheel hubs with liftarms of required length.- 1 reply

Buying Parts from Lego
zux replied to Lakop's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Does anyone know how long it takes to receive parts after paying for them? Time scales in EU would be appreciated. -

Clone Racers (Copycat Lego)
zux replied to RohanBeckett's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This is something I'm happy about, if you can say so. TLG could fight and try to ban this item somehow. But now imagine you see your MOC is being build and distributed by some unknown chinese company. -
Below is not personally to Vee: I just don't get it why people collect Architecure series not even knowing the subject. It looks really strange when people blame TLG for releasing "never known before' landmark. I'm not the fan of a series, but didn't know some of initially released sets, new ones - are obviously well known. The funny thing is even when you don't know what it is, you still NEED IT. Something is not right.

Mmmm, I can imagine how cool it would be having all Technic pins, connectors and liftarms in those funky colors other themes have

Crowkiller's Muscle Car
zux replied to Kronos's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Well I think everyone with new parts would come up with the same or similar setup. -
Yeah, colored Technic parts have issues with color being of slightly different shades for some reason I can understand that when comparing liftarms and say connectors (these looks like made of a different plastic or mixture), but when two same liftarm have different shades - that's bad. I've noticed this with yellow, red and blue parts. Black, LBG and DBG seems to be fine.

Not sure what you really need, but have you heard about Bricklink or Rebrickable.

Bricks cracking... just from being connected to one another?
zux replied to Endgame's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Since which year you call items modern? Recently I had a look at my LEGO from childhood - I was really disapointed to see lower arm part of almost all minifigs to be cracked heavily, some even have sliced cracks (that is "parallel") . All sets from early 90's. -
[MOC] Swingloader Mark Two
zux replied to D3K's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
You need to physiccally cut old differential to make 24 teeth clutch gear from part of it. -
Another WIP supercar
zux replied to jorgeopesi's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Yes, YES, I like it! F40 is one of best looking Ferraries for me, so I'd love to build one. -
8051 C-model Easter Egg?
zux replied to Cumulonimbus's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I was wondering what is the point of these numbers and why did you point to that. And theeeen it hit me - it's LEGO written upside down. Didn't know that before. -
1932 Luxury Roadster
zux replied to unimog123's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Wow, clean and smooth lines - I like it very much. Those tires tend to make any MOC looking great. -
2014 Fox 8x8x8
zux replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Your construction should be heavy enough too, so tires won't loose grip. -
Buying Parts from Lego
zux replied to Lakop's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
These are new items released in small amount in sets. So I think there might be a high demand at the beginning, but eventually price will go down with more parts appearing on BL. -
Buying Parts from Lego
zux replied to Lakop's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I have never bought parts directly from LEgo, so I wonder what are delivery rates? -
Technic parts in non-Technic sets
zux replied to Hrafn's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Friends sets have some Technic parts, like 12 stud long white axles, some yellow connectors. Some SW sets have Technic parts in unusual colours. -
It is real. Sets produced earlier have 3-hole rims unlike the later sets having 6-hole rims with reinforcements. How do reinforced (6-hole) rims perform, is there any bumping, or uneven roll of the tyre?

Yellow Technic Parts
zux replied to Technic-Kobaltz's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
so you mean that tyres, maybe even most of them come from China? Actually there is no wonder about it. I have several tyres that have proper shape, but visually tyre sides are a bit distorted. -
[MOC/MOD] Supercarified 8297 B-model
zux replied to D3K's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Nice one, this really makes me want to scrap long going modification of A-model and build the B one.
