Hi,
in this video, I'll show you different approaches to transport rotation from A to B, no matter how far they are apart.
Enjoy watching,

The best motors I found for that version is the old 9v motors that had the groove in the top for wires. I thing they were almost 1:1 and had crazy long cables sometimes.

Chain or cable transmission can reach quite long distances with little loss as well :)

@in1 Жыл бұрын

The friction of lego chains is a lot higher that I expected, so I didn't include it. But yeah, that should work, too.

@pg5200 Жыл бұрын

@@in1 Ok that's strange, I've been using chains in applications that require minimal power loss for years... (mécanique de gare de télésiège débrayable) → Fast rotation, fast power variation, continuous rotation for hours with low power input They work brilliantly in my case. Large cogs help ofc.

How are you getting the distance limits? It doesn't look like there is any tests and for some transmission methods it doesn't seem right, for example why is using the axle only giving you 1 meter of distance? If the friction increases over time due to contact points, at which amount of friction do you stop? For the beams, the mechanism can get stuck in the points where they are flat. For the moving beam, the movement isn't linear and for the motors if you apply a load to them the energy will turn into heat in the wires.

One precision thought, using a motor as a generator with PF motors ends up ruining it, I did it for some time, and now the poor motor can't generate torque at all, at the slightest resistance it stops

Hi, maybe is off topic but I have some questions to ask: 1) how many kind of pieces do you have? 2) how many of them? 3) when you create a video, how do you obtain the pieces? 4) which are the pieces most interesting? thank you for your time.. great inspiring videos like ever! great job!

I just started my little collection, as a fan of "older" technic sets, that combine simplicity and functionality imho, and I want some suggestion from a real expert like you..

@in1 Жыл бұрын

@@vmark80 Most of my pieces are just organized in loosely sorted boxes. Most of my favorite sets are also older ones, I can't really name a top 10, but the Arocs is definitely up there... As you can see in my videos, I'm using power functions most of the time, and I'm not really happy about the new motors :/

@in1 Жыл бұрын

The mechanism still locks even if there is no rubber band. But even close to the speed of light you would need 2.5 million years to get there (or maybe shorter or longer, because the concept of time gets wonky), so probably the mechanism will break anyways.

@@in1 well if you're going close to the speed of light (like, really REALLY close) then it might be relatively few years for the mechanism, and just a few million for US it might still work
