a very good job! looks impatiently at the end of this project! I want a lot of technic pieces!! !!!!!

Very nice !

@ MOD: you can clean and remove unnecessary comments by KEvron?

all clear! If you riferiscial fact that I changed the project ... yes ... it is a change in the running but as I said earlier, with only 2 blue air tank I have not gotten much, so I tried another way ... with slightly better results

I'm making the upload ... but I think I overdid it with the size of the video! I state that you will be disappointed, because you will not see the ship go up or down in level, but you will see only the principle of operation I'll have to work there on with more calm and time

to drain the "ballast tanks" in the video you will see how it work obviously the "ballast tanks" is more like a swimming pool is a bit 'hard to create a sealed chamber only with bricks

Unfortunately I could not get what I wanted the variation between the normal buoyancy and diving has always been minimal in the various tests that I did Unfortunately the limited time available did not allow me to make the last change that I have in mind I close with these pictures for the moment the status of jobs ... followed by a video satisfaction is cjhe floats only with Lego bricks!

i admit... I envy your creativity

Very nice !!! the solution of the Lego boxes I have evaluated myself for the contest TSATS I had thought of using it "in extremis" if my ship does not float! I may have to use it to sink it! I see in your video that works perfectly! hehehe you are clever!

can you give me more information ? also in MP

but you've got to try MINDroid ? link 1 link 2

you used MINDdroid 2.1? unfortunately I haven't the NXT ... NXT has the WiFi antenna?

guys ... you are great and I feel very small in reading your stories! thanks for sharing with us your stories! I have the 8868, and is a beautiful building indeed! I think the problem is the cable neck for the pump ... but if you built the 8043 I do not see why you can not manage to build this!

I think that it is not necessary that a creation technic has to operate at 100%, in this case that floats ... Lego itself is so but if you want to succeed, you must do so by the rules .. is a challenge to 360 ° (for example, I have not even wanted to use pieces "prefabs" only bricks and bricks) probably I would not have posed the problem, but you yourself said it, and probably someone more experienced than me you would have asked for clarification Obviously we need to trust the creations of others, but it is also right to ask for clarification and to ensure that people follow the Rules this is just my thoughts, and not for me to make judgments

good job! but ... 5 grams of lead shot "is not a major part of the build it is suitable"!?! I suppose if you take away that you would find yourself in this situation I have also worked on this for my ship, and i resolved only with Lego pieces I do not want to create controversy and disagreements, but I think we need to clarify the rules: "Lego parts only" or "not lego pieces must be hidden" ? If is possible to hide parts not Lego I have a pair of solution for my moc We await a response from Siegfried I think you can change your MOC avoiding ballast not Lego, but moving motors toward the center of the ship engines

but the water does not damage the motor and battery pack ?

Nice! Simple but efficient! but does not enter the water !!?!? watching the video I got chills!

but does not work as I would like

Nice ! looks like a spaceship but ... float !

test of the pumps and air/water tank

aesthetic line very nice!

updating Unfortunately, the water entering the tank is not enough to "send off" the ship The difference is micrometric Floats too well! there should be more tanks and a system to rotate them when they fill with water or air optimizing the load but I have no other I probably pointed too high for my chances but let's see what I can do even

I have compensed this problem (evidenced by your animated gif) with this 2 pieces : 'Boat Weighted Keel 2 x 8 x 4 without Bottom Tab' (x149a) and 'Brick 2 x 6 x 2 Weight with Plate Bottom' (73090b) for a total of 0.102 Kg to 43cm of distance from the "cockpit" Yes ! I do not know how many mm will move I have to make connections and have the time to take the test I have already taken the test to pump water and then air, and it worked ... pushes the air out of the water and vice versa .... Obviously the quantities are minimal the ideal is to have more Tank I must now consider whether to put the tanks in series, or independent of each other as designed at the beginning This is the Hull of my ship
