Congratulations Martin for getting everything working!! I am building spaceport now and I do have night city and the link kit already. I will be upgrading the motor as well. Good job.

Hey Alan, thank you so much, I’m delighted it’s all working 😊 That’s excellent and I hope you’re enjoying the spaceport build so far and hopefully everything goes well with both of the marble runs 🤞 And that is definitely a good idea since it’s just too weak. Thanks again 😊

I just finished building the connecting link kit watching your fabulous video. I plugged in the cord, tapped the start pad, and lo and behold to my amazement, everything worked, albeit slowly. A more powerful motor is a must! Many thanks to you, Martin, because without your video I would never have accomplished this project. I have a video of the Runs working but don't know how to attach it here. Once again, thanks, Martin. Jerry Seiff

Great job and video. For me the speed's okay. For sure the lift takes a lot of time, but all in all with the blue lights it's an awesome run. Maybe you'll find a slighty longer belt for the city.

@MartinsAssemblyHaven 2 ай бұрын

Hey, thank you so much for that, it’s much appreciated 😊 That’s fair enough, everyone’s preference is different and yeah that blue light is really awesome. A longer belt would unfortunately slow down the spaceport even more, but I’ll see if I can find a bit more powerful motor 😊

I purchased the following motor on amazon. I haven't received it yet and I imagine I will have to do a lot of things before it will work for me: Greartisan DC 12V 100RPM Gear Motor High Torque Electric Micro Speed Reduction Geared Motor Centric Output Shaft 37mm Diameter Gearbox

@MartinsAssemblyHaven Ай бұрын

Hey Mark, I’m glad you got it from Amazon as you can return it no problem. So I have finished my modifications with a new motor installation + speed controller and a switch and I’ll release the video tomorrow 😊 And I can tell you that 100 RPM is too slow, I tested it out myself, even with a 200 I felt that the desired speed for myself personally was nearly there, but not quite. So I got a high torque 12V 400RPM which is just amazing, but I don’t use all 400 RPM of course because of the speed controller so it doesn’t go overboard if plugged in without the controller.

@RoeShawn Ай бұрын

I love the lights, its way brighter than what I was expecting, but that not my complaining on that LOL. It does slow down on the gears from night city other times it just stops (pause) then it goes again, I been rewaxing the gears mainly on the night city, but it could possibly be where u said part of the wood gear is rubbing against the moving gear. Im exciting that its done, going to add the marbles next. Thank you once again for the fun tutorials for the link, night city and spaceport... Now I have to decide what to do next LOL 🙂

@MartinsAssemblyHaven Ай бұрын

Hey Shawn, I do agree that the lights do look bright enough and cool 😎 That’s a bit of a shame that it doesn’t run perfectly, hopefully you manage to sort it out so it runs a bit better 🤞 And you are more than welcome, I’m really glad you enjoyed my videos 😊 And if you’re looking for a new project, ROKR has recently release their electric ship, and that looks epic 😃 If you fancies any other model from them, if you used my affiliate link here then that would be greatly appreciated 😊 shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1707320&u=4069976&m=106192&urllink=&afftrack=

@@MartinsAssemblyHaven I received my addon kit today. Having both kit's would you recommend building the first one different knowing you will be adding the second one to it or just build it complete then do the removal of parts and add the second kit.

@MartinsAssemblyHaven 24 күн бұрын

That’s excellent 👌 The only bit I wouldn’t install is the motor on Spaceport. I would gather all the necessary pieces for the motors housing, but I wouldn’t actually build it as when you build the connection kit, you will have to swap out some of the motor housing pieces. Does that make sense?

No problem at all. And no unfortunately I don’t have the one similar size. I did find one like it, but slightly bigger, but it was far too slow so I had to ditch that idea. I think the only way is to modify the existing motor box or just buy or create one yourself 😊

@@oldgeezergaming5602 Hey. Thank you very much for that. And I’m very sorry about the sound, I believe it’s due to me somehow picking a copyrighted background song and I tried to remove it on YT studio and then cancelled the process and I believe that still removed a couple of voice parts. Sorry about that.

I finished finished Night City, there are still some areas that the marbles get stuck but I already went through it many attempts to fix and of course breaking a few fragile pieces but luckily fixable, but still works none the less, Im excited to get started on the link pack, just from the two I like Spaceport due to not having so many fragile pieces, Nightcity is simple design but very fragile in ways of putting it together.

@MartinsAssemblyHaven Ай бұрын

Hey Shawn, I’m glad you’ve completed the Night City but yes I agree that it’s a bit of a pain compared to Spaceport, but as you say at least it works 😊 You’re gonna enjoy the connection kit since it’s very straightforward and easy, but of course the motor is too weak to run both runs at good speed, but it’s fixable 😊

@Agra-xe9oc Ай бұрын

Can you suggest specs for more powerful motor?

@MartinsAssemblyHaven Ай бұрын

So I’ve run a wee test already with a high RPM motor and that is no use. So what we need is a high torque and low RPM motor instead. I’d say possibly at around 100-200 RPM mark with high torque. Just because we need something that can move all that resistance that the whole kit gives because just speed alone and low torque can’t do it.

@MartinsAssemblyHaven Ай бұрын

I’d also add that a speed controller would be very handy 😊

@Agra-xe9oc Ай бұрын

@@MartinsAssemblyHaven my motor stopped functioning and I noticed that some people are saying to get a more torquey motor. I was just wondering if you purchased one and if so from where? I won't contact ROKR for the same thing if it doesn't have enough torque. tks

@MartinsAssemblyHaven Ай бұрын

No yeah there’s no point getting the same one from ROKR as it’s only 4.5V and the torque is too low. I am still looking around and so far I’m aiming for something between 9-12v with around 200 RPM + high torque. But don’t take my word for it just yet as I haven’t tried it out yet.
