Anyone happen to know how much friction these part combos have. I wanna build a flight stand and have a pivot joint to pose it.  (The plane is the size of the Adventurers Bi Wing Baron)

I don't have other but In sets looks like has some friction. I don't know how much strong.

The other one has significant friction but will sag under weight. The most comparable friction is like that of Mixel joints but a little stronger.

Alright. Guess I'll have to think of something else. Mixel joint won't hold it up.

Here's one trick, you can plug a 92910 into a 1936 and it has a load of friction. even more than the usual socket counterparts for part 92910.

see here at 2:24

Hope this solves your problem.

Considering your nickname I think you already tried this but bionicle's medium size ball joint can't work?

Good day to all! If I want to reuse new PU motors with the PU battery box in MOC - how should I adjust the motors? What software to use on my smartphone and is it afailable for iOs?  Thank you!

PoweredUp is the official software, but there is also BrickController2 if you prefer a physical controller.

If you have a LEGO Remote, you can also try Remote Bla Bla....

It does not need a smartphone.

Does Power up application allow to create an own profile and connect motors?

It can but I wanted something I could more easily hide in a terrain build.

There is a tab in the top right corner that says play / create.

Click on the create part, than click the big plus symbol to create a project.

My bad - initially I was looking in Control+ application and didn't know about Lego Powered Up one.

 

Thank you!

Anyone know where I can find the new Daytona diff gears for stud.io?

The second combo does not have friction either. If you want friction, use Bionicle-style connectors for poseable figures, such as the three below.

These do have a lot of friction, and high clutching power as well.

Welcome to Pick a Brick.  

Typically it takes 4 weeks from ordering to delivery for me. Your mileage may vary.

In the (grainy) pics of the inventory for set 42151 Bugatti Bolide, I think I'm seeing the thin 2L liftarm in Yellow...

I notice @Maaboo35 was looking at the same photos at the same time, remarking this in the 42151 thread :)

It's also clearly visible in an underside shot in the Promobricks review.

I have recently ordered some parts from both categories (bestsellers and standard). The former took 3 days since they are shipping them from warehouse within our country, and the latter exactly 3 weeks.
