    9398 and many other sets used this technique. It's totally okay.
  2. Zerobricks
    I suggest you use the new diff and 12 tooth gear, since the new diff can't move sideways away from the gear.
  3. Zerobricks
    Use T beams to brace the gears. Pin and axle based connections are bound to detach/slide apart over time.
  4. Zerobricks
    That is very odd indeed, you sure it's a genuine Lego part?

    Pink would be an aweseme and a very bold color for Technic IMO, especially in the combination with the purple. Anyway, back on topic, I can't wait to get this set and motorize it, already tinkered digitally and should be able to fit at least 2 drive and 1 steering motor alonged with the new diff and stronger CV joints.
  6. Zerobricks
    Don't use the same gear that drives the differential, since it tends to bend up and down when going forwards an, backwards. Use a second gear, which is properly fixed on both ends.

    Problem with current bevel/spur gear hybrids is that the supur teeth have to be short in order not to interfer with bevel gears when used as a bevel gear. This means they run less smooth and that the bevel teeth have a tendency to rub agains beams sideways, further reducing their efficiency. The new gears will be stronger, smoother and more efficient. Now the question that comes to mind is, if we will get new purpose-designed bevel gears too?
  8. Zerobricks
    Here's another theory about the new gears. The teeth look much wider and longer than usual bevel versions, so I would assume they are stronger. Maybe they have a project that needs a stronger version? Also as mentioned before they are now compatible with chains.

    One is from 42141 and the other from 42000? Do I win a cookie?
  10. Zerobricks
    Would be an easy fix if the cam is not forced to be perpendicular. So using (O) and (O +) beam isntead of (+ O +) half beams?
  11. Zerobricks
    Cn you post these and others in the LDD new parts too: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/170286-custom-ldd-bricks-and-fixes/ Thanks!

    It really shows how the new panels add to the organic flow of the models compared to the old techniques. Only thing that worries me is front suspension, the liftarms are hanging only on 2 pins, maybe using the 6L suspension arms would be a better tidea if you want a slim profile.
  13. Zerobricks
    Just tilt the whole assembly a few degrees clockwise?

    42094 used the same setup for the winch gearbox: https://brickset.com/sets/42094-1/Tracked-Loader

    Why make it so big? How else are you going to support a 2m tall crane while keeping it robust enough for an average consumer And you can also use the 3x11 panels for such supports where you need a hole through, personally I already used it once with a combination with a 16L axle, but can't recall what MOC was it right now...
  16. Zerobricks
    Probably limitations of the tooling, it would take a very long rod to make holes in that orientation through the whole part.
  17. Zerobricks
    Pushrod on all wheels just like 42000.
  18. Zerobricks
    Please contact support, so we can solve the issue.
  19. Zerobricks
    Default power durve setting is not straight, but the approximation of the exponential curve. BuWizz itself doen't make the noise, the noise is created by motors due to PWM modulation. Also make sure your ramp times are zero. If you still have issues, contact support and send a video.
  20. Zerobricks
    Good call, agreed.
  21. Zerobricks
    I'm not, just being realistic according to the past trend of 42096, 42125 and now this. Also that 21x3 frame makes total sense. They probably couln't just extend the 15L liftarm due to the bending forces, so this was the only way to get a longer part without bending/breaking under load.
  22. Zerobricks
    Indeed, looking at the models just a decade ago, you can see how much more complete, detailed and gap-less modern sets really are.
  23. Zerobricks
    TBH that frame was really unexpected, I'd imagine they'd release a 5x5 frame or such before that. But as mentioned before it's probably needed in the crane. Now that i see it, i already imagine the uses in my head, specifically reinforcing the sides of 1:8 models and the central tunnels.
  24. Zerobricks
    There is no limited slip differential, the small CV joints drive the standard differential directly which drives a 20 tooth gear which drives the engine. If you'd wanted a lockable diff, it would have to be the new version with additional 3 studs of space needed at the side for the lock. And finally the small CV joints are too weak for such locking and would get damaged over time.
  25. Zerobricks
    I'm glad you are happy with the the app. And yes, there should be a roadmap coming out soon, I'm pushing the team to get it done...
