This is a cool little module. Aside from the spacer no rare or difficult parts as far as I can tell. Just need to get me some balls   Thanks for sharing!

Thank you! You can build it without the spacer piece but it does help.

Stunning work. That looks like some great LEGO Technic engineering

Awesome small module! One of the best miniloop GBCs I have seen so far.

Thank you! More are coming soon :)

I've been meaning to post in this topic for days but haven't had the chance. It's an awesome little module. 

I was going to see if I could make an LDD file from the video, but I was beaten to post. 

Thanks for all the effort in putting together instructions. I'll be building this soon. 

Thanks for showing your creation with us. It's amazing! 

I've tried to put 4 arms in a row and pass on balls to each other but unfortunately the timing of the arms keeps changing and I cannot see why. The 24 tooth wheel hooks on the top of the LBG tower, could be the reason for changed timing. I also need to run it passing 1 ball per second which is may be too fast.
I still like the arm movement very much, I will try to make a GBC with 4 arms with 2 parallel ball streams and less critical timing.

Help:- I am having trouble getting the ball loading to work correctly - any tips on how to set the gears up please ?

Should the 14/24 diff body be free to rotate slightly or should it be fixed so it doesn,t move ?

Found best if use a speed controller instead of a basic controller.

Many thanks for the excellent instructions,

you're welcome

the version 2.0 of the building instructions is online since a couple of days, replacing the former version

It is ok if the 14/24 tooth gear moves a little bit, the edge of it should hit the top of the 1x2 brick beside it. I use rechargeable batteries for mine which is probably why your one is running to fast. I would recommend loosening all the parts of the loading mechanism so there is the least amount of friction possible.

After 4 re-builds I have stopped trying to make a Goldberg GBC out of it with 3 to 4 cardan arms. The tryout works but it drops too many balls to be part of a circle of GBC's running all day.
