Jim Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 Technically, it still is a fake Photoshop One possibly made by TLG though, which makes it interesting. Nice info! I will get official information about this mystery soon Quote
JintaiZ Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 (edited) The Porsche might be coming... https://www.promobricks.de/lego-mindstorms-porsche/110202/ But that brings a question... two Mindstorms sets in one year!? We shall wait and see Edited October 6, 2020 by JintaiZ Quote
Jim Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 It won’t be coming. Check the info in the previous posts. Quote

Maybe not today, not yesterday afternoon ... but at anytime? So: No Porsche with the new Mindstorms sets. Correct? I mean, I am getting confused. Just imagine election day (whoa no not that one, the one for the new Mindstorms sets to be released) comes up in a month and someone from TLG drives in an SUV with the Porsche-Box clearly visible through the window ... that would make a difference! Oh well - have fun folks! Best Thorsten Quote

The site was removed while they where reading it... Now it's back online with a new set number :D If you want the set, vote for it: https://news.lego-lab.com/new-page Quote
Jim Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 You just beat me to it. Voting is indeed up They replaced the strange Photoshop image with a regular image of the Porsche 911 RSR?! 9 hours ago, Toastie said: So: No Porsche with the new Mindstorms sets. Correct? I mean, I am getting confused. Yes, no, maybe, definitely not, a wait, maybe again.... It's a page to test the waters. Not sure it will ever see the light of day, but at least we need to try by voting. Quote

Ramacco Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 (edited) Next week, October 15th, the new LEGO MINDSTORMS 51515 Robot Inventor Kit is going to launch. Curious about what’s in the box? I had the opportunity to unbox a set to give you already a glimpse of all the new goodies. Check it out ! #mindstorms #robotinventor #robotmak3rs Edited October 8, 2020 by Ramacco Quote
Gimmick Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 @Ramacco Thank you, that's early :D Since the app is not released yet I think, can you do me a favour and test one motor with the PU-App and Technic-Hub? Just if it works or not. :) Quote

Since I am writing a review and I cannot publish it until the 10th, I was wondering; where did you get the box and do you have permission to post the content already? Quote

Hey Jim, I received the set directly from LEGO to film an unboxing video as well as creating other videos. I am part of the ROBOTMAK3RS family and we are allowed to start posting content as of October 8th, 2020 - 8am CET. A lot of other videos are being published here as well. I am looking forward to your review! 3 minutes ago, Gimmick said: @Ramacco Thank you, that's early :D Since the app is not released yet I think, can you do me a favour and test one motor with the PU-App and Technic-Hub?

The current problem is: The large angular motor in the volvo dumper does not work, because they did not add the ID til today. Therefore I was curious if the small angular motor works. :) Quote

AVCampos Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 You can try the SPIKE Prime app (manual installer here). Source: https://education.lego.com/en-gb/downloads/spike-prime/software Quote
Toastie Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 Hey All, a Windows app! Nice. That one does not work by any chance with the 2I/O and 4I/O hubs, correct? Thanks! All the best, Thorsten Quote

AVCampos Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 However, I wouldn't keep my hopes up: with TLG's history of narrow software support, most likely the Windows IDE only supports the yellow (and maybe teal, too) SPIKE hub. Quote
Lok24 Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 The Spike hub is running micro-Python and BT, the powered up hubs don't have python and use BLE. You can use pyBricks and run your developement on any device under Chrome for the PoweredUp Hubs Quote
