I don't think you're going to generate enough pressure for a proper turbine setup. For a LEGO hydroelectric generator a gravity-based system, like a water wheel, might be more effective.
You did NOT understand the priciples of suspension bridges. Kables have to be under pull not push. The pillars do not support the part, where they standing but the free hanging parts of the road, where the other ends of the cables are attached. If you want to support the middle of a bridge, you need to bould the pillars at the ends of the bridge and route the kables to the middle. Or simple build an arch bridge.
I love these videos. Whenever I can’t sleep I watch them. Something about the sounds, background, the simple yet complex designs calms me. Keep up the amazing work!
if you made it look like an actual gondola and work like one as well with cars that detach from the main line and move slowly around the station like they do in real life then that would be so neat
Thanks for the comment! Yes I'm building up to a full circuit! This was the first video of managing the roll into a 90 degree banked turn. Im going to need more 5x3 liftarms.....
Kes? Your entire analogy and explanation is TOTALLY forgetting the KEY point… lien was either seriously unwell, not interested, off her face, or on an entirely different planet in EVERY appearance…. Reports about her performance and behaviour had risen weeks after filming started BEFORE caretaker was even shown, we have heard the cast and crew repeatedly tell of her refusal to act, refusal to involve herself in development, her bizarre and often criminal behaviour on sets etc.. Saying her character had the bizarre development had EVERYTHING to do with her commitment and nothing to do with writing , editing or chance
Weight-drop launch: Doesn't exist IRL. Closest thing would be a traditional coaster where the train itself is the weight. The system you're using to transfer energy from the weight to the train, however, is very similar to the one used on Intamin's Accelerator model of hydraulic launch. Catapult Launch: Doesn't exist IRL, but is similar in concept to a drive tire launch, like on Hulk or Firechaser Express. Drive Wheels: As mentioned before, this is the system used on Hulk and Firechaser Express. Self-Propelled: This is not actually classified as a type of launch. However, powered coasters do exist. Runaway Mine Train at Alton Towers and Dragen at LEGOLAND Billund are two examples.
Weight Drop launches absolutely do exist. The first four Schwarzkopf shuttle loops used them, and two of those four still operate! It was only the later shuttle loops that used flywheels.
It is worth noting though that the real weight drop system is a fair bit more complicated than what's shown in the video, but the concept is still the same.
They're only three types of launches, hydraulic, Drive Tire and, LSM. And trains/cars can't Propel themselves or break it's all on the track. Also you should make a magnetic break. Ps it's made out of copper.
Build it with Bricks: I need some 5x3 Technic L beams Bricklink: How Many? Build it with Bricks: How many do you have? (Read in the "John Wick, Task A Crew" voices...)
I'd also like to see how a non-sand-only beach would work. Most natural beaches aren't just sand or rock, but also quite a lot of beach grass that reinforces the sediment and reduces erosion overall. I wonder how you'd reproduce that with lego pieces...
