I started this channel in January 2019 to combine my love for LEGO bricks, RC vehicles, and the outdoors. Join me on a quest to explore the natural beauty of Greece, relics of the past, and much more, using remote-controlled vehicles built from LEGO Technic elements!
ο κατακορυφος τοιχος στο τελευταιο "σταδιο" της καταβασης και ο βραχος που εμοιαζε με μουσατο προσωπο ηταν το αποκορυφωμα του ταξιδιου! μ'αρεσει επισης δεν βλεπαμε καν τον πατο του χασματος!!
Φαντάσου και το εξής : Μόλις το όχημα επέστρεψε στην επιφάνεια, αφαίρεσα την action camera και πέρασα όλο το αρχείο της λήψης στο κινητό μου για να δω το αποτέλεσμα. Το πρώτο συναίσθημα ήταν η πλήρης απογοήτευση βλέποντας ότι το μοναδικό που τράβηξε ήταν κοντινό στον τοίχο όσο βάραγε με τα "μούτρα" το όχημα στην σπηλιά. Και ξαφνικά, μετά από 35 δευτερόλεπτα απογοήτευσης, ο θάλαμος ανοίγει και φαίνεται η σπηλιά σε όλο της το μεγαλείο! Υ.Γ. Ο βράχος που είναι σαν πρόσωπο, σε ποιο σημείο φαίνεται;
April 1941 Steaming along Brazilian coasline, an allied merchant ship carrying explosives was caught by a U-Boat that scored a direct torpedo hit which blew open her cargo bay and broke her keel, admitting the sea into the bowels of the ship. With the ship's engines disabled and the option to beach her out of the window due to a strong current, the crew abandoned ship, which went down in under 40 minutes and entombing 28 crew members still inside.
What kind of plane was that? Was it a civilian or one of the planes shoot down during the Second World War? Edit: scratch that I didn’t read the description.
Fun fact, the plane probably crashed further away from shore, but was accidentally carried closer to the shore by fishing trawlers. During that process, it was broken into several pieces, some of which have yet to be discovered.
for a bigger ship take a styrodur plate instead of the small styropor, much more boost, for the holes under the boat I took some book binding foil from the outside.:_9
Thank you! You never know what you can build unless you start small. Check out how I started building ships, and you'll get the idea : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-l8U77MbwlgI.html
There's a reading on my controller that displays the signal quality as an error percentage. If the reading is too high, I'll bring it closer to avoid loosing connection. In case of any other failure, I always carry a small inflatable boat with me for recovery.
You can actually see it in the building process part of the video. I shot it after completing the mission. If you look closely you might notice there's dirt on the tires, although I cleaned them up before shooting the video.
Journey to the Centre of the Earth, LEGO Technic style. I am very happy to watch part 2 of this mission, after watching part 1 some number of months ago. Congratulations on the success of your mission! Did you achieve all that you set out to do? Can we expect part 3 of this mission? Did you get any ideas from the comments on part 1, on how to safely descend your vehicle?
Glad to see you're back to see part two! This mission opens up possibilities for many more projects, as the rappelling system seems to be able to lift a lot of weight (with the right gearbox of course). Definitely expect to see a small vehicle rappelling down a cave, and further exploring using tracks or tires to move around at the bottom. I'll need an FPV system to achieve that though, as I'll have to see where the vehicle is going. The comments always help to further brainstorm on any problem. The comment section actually inspired me to use a retractable cord to measure the depth of the cave and monitor the position of the vehicle to avoid smashing on the bottom at full speed.
@@EVP22 it's very popular among cave climbers for training reasons. Very accessible, with a good total depth and it is 100% mapped. Fun, but grim, fact during the first exploration of the third chamber, two human skeletons were discovered dating from the 1800s. A clear sign that there was another entrance to the third chamber that collapsed when the two humans were inside. I visited the entrance to that cave, as well as many others on that mountain, when I was a student riding my mountain bike. I was always fascinated by deep cave systems, high mountains, and all sorts of exploring so I decided to bring my LEGO into the adventure! Now I need to convince Elon Musk to launch one of my vehicles to the moon...
You could add some wheels on the sides too for better descends and another camera on the other side or at the bottom so you can see where you're going. Looking forward to the part III. with the exploration vehicle :)
I tried to keep it as light as possible, otherwise it wouldn't be able to climb back up again. I can't wait for part III as well, but I can't do it yet. I'll need to build an FPV system first, as I'll need to see what the vehicle sees down there.
@@brickandgear You could try doing it with a crane to pull it up instead of it pulling itself up also I don’t know if this would work but maybe use multiple cranes that lowers it down and uses and electromagnet to connect to it but it would have to be really strong to do that without disconnecting when hitting stuff and since it seems to mostly be a really wide chasm you could probably make a crane that is stationary but and moves but you would have to get rid of the fencing over it and if it gets stuck you wouldn’t have to push the rope and also since there is probably terrain it would get stuck on I think you should add tracks and a secondary crane that isn’t Lego to pull it out in case of emergency that has a way longer rope and Is connected too the build securely so it can be pulled without the worry of it falling off
@@Ayers-dog-lover I used a crane during my first attempt. The problem with the crane is building a winch that can handle a huge amount of pressure that builds up as the rope gets wrapped around the winch axle. Wrapping 25 meters of rope stresses the build very much and it's prone to structural failure, as axles tend to bend under the immense load. So, for such a depth, using a belt and rappelling system was much easier. Then comes the rate of descent/ascent. A winch has a much lower rate of descent/ascent and my DJI Anton 2 camera can only record 15 minutes of 2.7K video before overheating and shutting itself down. So, it would probably shut down before it resurfaced. With the rappelling system, the vehicle went down almost 25 meters and back up again in under 5 minutes! Your electromagnet idea is amazing! A fantastic system to lower a small vehicle and release it once it reaches the bottom! I'll have to brainstorm on it!
It crashes. I build something to locate it. It succeeds... then crashes. I build something to retrieve both vehicles... It crashes trying... I shut down the channel... 😆
I tried to balance the vehicle so that it tilts a bit forward, to protect the camera from smashing on the rocks and help the vehicle to overcome any obstacles during the accent by using the wheels on top. It came back up, so I guess it worked 😁. I would like to build a cheap FPV system in the future though. It's very important to be able to see where the vehicle is going, be it a ship, land vehicle, or anything else.
I'm currently Creating a Bricklinks Studio file of this based off of the visuals I see in the video to try and replicate the hull except using lego motors and putting my own spin on the Style. I want to build my own Lego Technic boat one day, but I'm new to Legos and it's good to study off of what others built. If I successfully complete the file, would you like a copy of it? I'm still learning the software, but it's actually pretty straight forward. Also, if you respond to this comment, is there any way you can get me part numbers for the propeller and accessories?
Send me a picture of the completed boat on Instagram or via e-mail whenever you complete it! I always enjoy people getting inspired by my builds and building their own vehicles. Unfortunately, the propellers, servo motor, battery and electronics are not LEGO, so there are no part numbers.
Hi, I want to ask for help with the project, I'm reviving the Titanic, I made it move the blades from the motors, but I need your advice, please good luck you have a little bit left until 30k
You know I know that in Japan the people would have images of dragons and with your skills and intellect you could make a dragon that would be kinda cool to see a dragon walking on the ground
