Hello, i bought a sbrick since a last year and had no problems at all running on a lego lipo battery pack and the AA battery pack. Last week i decided to upgrade and bought a few 2 lipo batteries (7.4v 45c 2200mAh). They were fine for awhile but after a few days my xl motors started burning, i've burnt at least 3 of thse xl motors now. Isn't the Sbrick's max output current is 1A? Did the motor burnt due to the battery's C rate? i've already contacted lego for 3 replacement xl motors but i just need some information to figure out why did the motors burn, just to prevent it from happening again. I also bought another 20c lipo pack hoping that it won't burn the motors again like the 45c one did. Thanks.

Hi, welcome to Eurobricks! I believe this forum will have some information to help with your adjustable suspension idea.

Love it! Again, the proportions looks very accurate. Can't wait to see the car in action !

Usually the shocks on real Baja trucks are pre-compressed in order for it to keep contact to the ground even when jumping.

Ha! I just got the 8285 (tow truck) for $50 used.

I'll be looking forward to it, i love trophy trucks!

Looks great, realistic proportions. Will there be instructions or an lxf/io file?

Yes, it's got an dual core intel i5.

Here's something, the knockoff L motors and XL's right now are actually MORE expensive than the actual lego motors. I regret buying 8 of the knockoffs. Nevermind, i just checked. They were probably on sale like last week.

i got 10KG of legos for $100 from Japan last week which includes a huge selection of pieces, a like-new 9398 and a Unimog. I can say i trust Aliexpress though shipping might take a lot of time, i recently ordered 5 batteries off Aliexpress, they said it'll arrive in 50 days max but they just arrived yesterday which is about 70-ish days.

Hi, i recently bought a google chromebook from google and installed brickcontroller 2, downloading and installing worked smoothly but the application wouldn't open, it'd stuck on a blank screen with a controller icon in the middle then crashes immediately. Are there anyways to fix this?

I will take a internal picture of my servo later tonight. The problem is probably the angle sensor, the servos don't use the normal angle sensors you see in mindstorms motors and control plus ones, they use a metal contact to tell the motor driver it's positions and the thing is they don't have a "mounting point" for the metal contact, so it can usually move out of it's position therefore giving the sensor false angles. Found a picture! Not mine though. pict

Thanks, i hope it won't damage my parts again. I'll be waiting for the name.

I recently bought a can of CRC Food grade silicone spray and sprayed them, unknowingly on my only 4 pneumatic pistons. I had a bad experience with lubricants as i melted an entire chassis drivetrain once with a single spray, the effect doesn't take place right away, it melted after 2-4 days. Anyone tried this new lubricant? If so please tell me if it is safe for lego or not.

Do you have the file of the rims? I'm interested.

Well actually it's like that, Lamborghini uses scissor doors. Mclaren doors opens outwards.

I ordered 2 new cables, hope it'll work. Then i'll take it apart as a last resort.

Hi, i've got 2 buggy motors which i got from the 8376 Hot Flame buggy set. This morning i decided to test the motors which are in a moc im working on but it only ran a few times then slowed down drastically, slower than the xl motor i mean. Does anyone got this issue? The motor is discontinued and it is relatively expensive so i can't replace them anytime soon nor contact lego's customer support. I've tried to power it with Lipo batteries, the lego rc hub from the set, the AA battery box, the rechargeable battery box and even a custom 9v battery but none of them worked at all. Thanks

Those chrome Chiron rims

Got a new Chiron for $250

I didn't had it.

I think the recolour was first featured in 42099.

Still using the good ol' engine pieces. I see 3 7*11 frames and that's a lot of angles in the mid-body (behind the seats). This is definitely a good parts pack!

Still no rear shots but the return of the flex axles are here.

Now that comes down the vehicle's weight or you'll need a proper handbrake like Attika did, I'm working on one with awd but sadly it doesn't seem to drive with those rubber tires on since the car is wayyyy too heavy.
