Imanol BB Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 Hello, some time ago, there was made a new topic on the Technic Forum about a new Power Functions controller of high performance called BuWizz As you can see, its principle is similar to the SBrick, but the advantage is that it has a power supply inside, which makes it a very compact controller with the same size of the rechargeable battery, i made this topic to let you know about this nice product, and also, if some of you are available to get one as a test, let us see how it performs in trains, it is also a project in Kickstarter More information at: Kickstarter https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/973645257/buwizz-remote-control-for-lego-models Technic Topic http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=136273 BuWizz Page http://www.buwizz.com/
MaxSupercars Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 (edited) Same topic in Technic Forum. A lot of questions were aswered already there: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=136273 Max Edited June 28, 2016 by MaxSupercars
Imanol BB Posted June 28, 2016 Author Posted June 28, 2016 (edited) This topic is thought to be only for questions and experimentation for trains, because if it is tested in a train or there is someone with a question about its use on a train and not on a Technic model, it can be posted here instead of the Technic Forum.

CrispyBassist Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 After reading the Kickstarter page and skimming the thread in the Technic forum I'm intrigued by this. I do have a few questions, mostly regarding the app and stemming from my experience with SBrick: 1. Will the trains stop if I leave the app or if my phone sleeps? Trains are different from RC vehicles in the sense that you can "set and forget" them on a loop. 2. Can multiple controls be linked to each output? This would allow for such things as emergency stop buttons. Speaking of which... 3. Will there be an emergency stop button? While Lego train crashes can be impressive, it would be nice to have a quick way to stop the train. 4. Will this have the 2-hour timeout limit that Lego battery packs have?
