Lego Technic 6-speed gearbox w/ instructions 

+BIOBAY Thanks a lot! Yeah shouldn't it :)

Dgustafsson13 yea I mean, why not??

I'm wondering: gearing things up will make the spinning axle have less force i.e. it is easier to stop it. If the friction becomes to much, nothing will happen. Is this true?

BIOBAY Yes you're completely right if I've understood your explanation correctly. Gearing up an set of gears will give the output axle less torque but increase the speed

So what happens if you turn it around, could you get like a verry slow moving axle with a ton of force which would be much harder to stop with your hands?

Terry Tumulty id love to hear the nioses that would create :D

I mean this thing is more reliable than shifting in a wrx

I mean, who needs a clutch anyway, just dry shift that bad boy.

R doesn’t mean reverse It means race that why when you use it on a highway the police pull you over

By the time you needed reverse you'd already have a head gasket failure

+SwagBob Thanks! Hmm I don't know🤔

Moog approves

Overused joke *BUT* Mybe can fit in your Honda

nice meme

A lego remote control has a reverse handle right on it soooo....

Yeah it's only the likes of the mighty combustion engine that needs reverse gearing..

No your not completely right. Some people like to build free wheel clutches in between the motor and the gearbox so the wheels don't drive the motor but the motor can drive the wheels. As far as I've seen free wheel clutches can't go backwards so you wouldn't be able to use the reverse feature of the motor and you'd need a reverse gear in you transmission.

@Cako1000... Good modern electric vehicles have a motor per wheel, adaptive all wheel drive they keep on about. so you would need four mini transmissions all with reverse. Plus I thought that the wheels driving the motors was how they recover energy back to the battery, so that means on top of the transmission for each wheel it would also have to have an some way of having harvesting the energy an alternator of sorts Wowsers, even just for two wheel drive... thats inefficient and expensive... I'll stick with my combustion engine lol

RoKn ROLLeR yeah but you can’t make a lego combustion engine, he’s talking about simulating combustion cars with legos.

@@postgibson4160 It's just like the dumb Forinte Supersoaker I bought just for the meme, completely overpriced and overrated. You pay for the brand name because it's licensed but the thing itself sucks for the price you paid. 20€ down the drain in my case.

+J0yb0y 👍👍😜

Why would it have a reverse when you can just use a switch or a infrared controller to make the machine you build this transmission into go back and forth?

@@G31M1 And as an extra function, it's a 6 GEAR REVERSE

+Josh McLaughlin Thank you!

+Łukasz Rugała Repetition is good, then I'll know if I'm moving in the right direction :) Thank you!

Just got my first car, a manual, and I understand now why they are still great to drive. Also stained my undies because of this vid.

+Chris van Vilsteren 👍👍☺

*_how big is your Lego car!?_*

Doge Front: 20cm Side: 40cm Hight: 15cm

Chris van Vilsteren I wanna make a tank with this so it can climb AND be fast

That is my engine

I like that idea. Module sets that you can then integrate into other builds.

+Sgt C4 Thank you very much!😃

+creepjax Thank you🙏

IM HAVING THAT PROBLEM RN LMAOOO! CANT FIND A SINGLE ONE IN MY TWO BINS OF LEGOS.

+Binza Thank you!

+MC Donald Sounds cool! Good luck!☺

+Sam Kz That's awesome! Thanks☺

1 the benifit of a gearbox is speed if you just have 1 speed that's the max. the more speeds the faster it will be, just look at cars! 2 the one in this video is better for a just adding a motor in front you will learn how it all works better. 3 read the above 😂 4 yep when u are in first it will need power from the wheels they go to the differential that brings it to the shifter and after that it Wil go to the engine, BUT! in real life it goes from engine first to shifter to differential to wheels. 5 manual is with a stick and a clutch so you do it urself. Automatic is when u set it in drive and it shifts itself (these are better in rc cars) and the differential is not a gearbox. Well it is but u can't shift the diferential. 6 it's all what I explained above😛 I hope it helps u in ur further creations From Thijmen Steen (13) From Holland.

+Ondřej Žára Yes that'll work perfectly fine too👍☺

Awesome!😀

Wonderful job, lad.

+All About Lego Thanks! Yeah I'm pretty happy with the compact design👍 Actually made it to a 4-speed one first and then added two gears to it :)

Dgustafsson13 :D

+Dalton Gosch Great to hear!😀

it just doesnt work on mobile, you have to open it on your pc

+BRICK boy LEGO Oh thank you! :)

+SidewaysNation - Thank you very much! Of course it's possible to add another gear, though that would also add to the size of it

+Brian KongNam Thank you very much!

That's great to hear! Share the result with me if you like once you're finished. Until then I'm wishing you good luck!

Dgustafsson13 it worked like a dream, I would like a reverse gear otherwise it was good

Do you know a lego reverse gearbox with no special pieces like a differential or a sifter ?

That's great! Actually you can buy all parts needed for this gearbox at once, by following the link in the description to Mochub.com 🙂

I can't say for sure until I've seen the other gearboxes you're talking about, but, I guess there's no difference at all for the gearboxes, instead I think it's about how fast you actually shift. I shifted gear slowly in this video to show how it works, and the other one you saw may shifted very quick. The gearbox in a real car works like the one you saw in this video.

👍😃

+Gavin Winger Thank you🙂

Anonymer Alkoholiker me too

Dude. It's under Menu, Downloads, MOCs, 6 speed gearbox Probably too easy to find 🤐

@@linglingproductions931 jep, i found it eventually and ordered the moc, its awesome 👍

+Lucas Semple Thank you very much! :D

Btw I'm on mobile

+Gaurav Atwal Thank you! Real cars use double clutches to solve that issue. However that doesn't really work in the world of LEGO, and if you do get it to work, it'll never be efficient enough to be worth it. Kind of sad, but that's how LEGO works😞

Oh and awesome videos btw!!! :D

ItsOnlyEllis - Subcribe I would recommend Bricklink.com for buying the parts needed for this👍 Thank you! :)

896gerard It sure can struggle, though when placed in a model it's supposed to be reinforced on the ends to prevent those "end gears" to slip

+Dimitris Akr Thank you😀

+Yan Liu Thank you😀

I don't think so, If I remember correctly, those light gray extension-thingys doesn't mesh with the newer style of driving ring. But I may be wrong :)

+Jack Duno That's great to hear! Haha good point there👍😉 I don't however got the gear ratios calculated at the moment, and I don't have access to the gearbox at the moment either, thus I can't tell you unfortunately🤔

+Oliver Raymond I know that

Where is your reverse? I'm kidding, good work, I wish I had more time to build with Legos.

+Oliver Raymond Thank you☺ I understand completely, time really is scarce

+MarcLaemmerhirt You're welcome☺

Dgustafsson13 I built it within 15 Minutes yesterday, just missing some gears and the Driving Rings. Do you reckon it's possible to add a reverse gear to this Gearbox? I have an Idea, but need to wait for some parts.

+MarcLaemmerhirt Great! Of Course it's possible, though I left it out to save space👍

+Lego master Builder There's a link in the description, or just Google Dgustafsson13 and you'll find it that way too. Thanks a lot! :)

Oh OK thanks. But I couldn't see the link in the description. I built it, it works very well, and I added some features to it: brake with paddle seats, and attachments for a car later on

Sounds cool! :)

+Daniel Hollich There's a detailed parts list available for download at my website. Check the description🙂

+Brody Lebid Does it work in all the other gears? If so the problem is not the dark grey gear wheel, then you've probably screwed something else up🤔

+Sašo Kornet Thank you very much! Not really, because of the way LEGO gear pieces are designed, a clutch isn't really necessary. Besides, the load it has to handle isn't that large either☺

Thank you very much, ​I was thinking how it works. You just got new subscriber, please keep up with the good work :D

+Sašo Kornet Thank you very much for that🙏

+WEBERLIN 04 Well there's not much holding it together at that point, but I can try to remember doing that for my next gearbox👍

Dgustafsson13 thanks, since I have all parts internally, but my pieces for a frame are quite limited

+Derek Scott If you manage to find one seller who's got all the parts needed, I guess it's a fairly easy way to do it. Another option is this service provided by LEGO themselves: www.lego.com/sv-se/service/replacementparts/sale They usually have got most parts in stock, to a reasonable price

It'd be pretty cool if someone could set up a mini robot arm that could move the shifter and have a camera on the side to watch

+Kelli Geilo That's good👍🙂

Sorry for my late reply! Yes you can absolutely add a clutch to the gearbox.

No problème, i can understand, i see that you put a tutorial for your gear box but we do not have the reférence of peaces, and i do not want if you can build a gear box with a tutorial and add it to your gearbox ? i never used the lego in my life, and its not for playing it s really for teaching and i need help for it (build something look like a real and we can see it). thank you again.

who am The instructions and a parts list for this build can be found at my website, which is listed in the description of the video. Unfortunately I haven't actually made a clutch model just yet, but if you're not into much of a hurry, I can design one and upload a video of it to RU-vid within a few weeks.

hi

+Mattew Skincat Thanks a lot! :)

On a site called Mochub.com. check the description for a link. Otherwise you can buy the parts on Lego.com as well, but it's a little more time consuming since you have to add all parts individually to your cart

+Brody Lebid Not this design exactly, but I'm sure you can build a 6-speed gearbox somehow with only 2 extensions🤔☺

Thank you as well!

Wher do i get the instructions? Plsss

@@Noah-ij2et theyre meant to be on the website but it takes me to some random page, anyone know how to get the instructions?

+theonemasterwarhero Anything is possible, though you might have to modify the car a bit☺

+The Annoying Tourist Thanks! Fitting it into the Porsche would probably involve quite some reconfiguration of the model, but sure almost anything is possible in the world of Lego👍😌

+Sean de Jong Bricklink.com is my best advise

Dgustafsson13 no brick owl

+Shannon Magann I can send you a parts list containing Part ID numbers and so on, if you would like to, mail me: dgustafsson13@gmail.com

i allready found all the parts through your instructions but its sourcing the bits thats the problem

+Shannon Magann You mean searching for them on Bricklink?

yeah! that sites confusing as! although i was on my phone. will have to try on desktop

Shannon Magann Yep I agree, Bricklink isn't the most logical site at first, but try the desktop version, and have a look at some tutorials on RU-vid regarding how to use Bricklink. best advice I can give :)
