Thrilled to see you're still making videos, NeXTSTORMING!

[crmfghtr]

Any chance of uploading plans for building?

[egolegoque]

Better than Bazmarc!

Did you use firgelli cable for connect PF motors to NXT, or PF extension wire + NXT converter cable?

[NeXTSTORMING]

@egolegoque No I do not have firgelli custom cables so I have used the old -well know- option. Of course managing the long cables and the extra connectors within a tiny space was quite a trouble (especially since I had to leave some room to access the USB port and to fix the dorsal stabilizer).

Best,

SUPERBE VIDEO ! Et quel modèle ! vraiment classe !

[tahubird]

Now you just gotta make it fly!

[Toyshansolo]

VERY COOL !!!! i build my Shuttle with Power Functions and remote controlled..but not finished....maybe the next month i will upload my Video...have you think about a retractably Landing Gear ? i know by myself how difficult it is...so again respect man ;-)

[NeXTSTORMING]

@Toyshansolo I could use only 3 motor for this project as there was no room for a mux. One motor can hardly drive both stabilizers. Then I had to decide what to do with the 3rd one ...a retractable landing gear or the mechanical cockpit? I think the latter fitted better to the setup. Dealing with the internal was really a challenge! I believe that with PF you’ll be able to motorize more functions (the NXT with a its battery and cabling occupies is around 3 times the space of one PF battery)

[NeXTSTORMING]

@Toyshansolo ...and thanks for the comments! I am looking forward to see your approach now!

Cool video! I don't like StarWars but I like the way you NXTfied this!

Bye bye Anika Vuurzoon

[bazmarc]

lol the chosen one!! hey nice video man...

I'm really glad you took the challenge and NXTfied the 10212! well done bro.

My only question is how come the blue lights at 0:42 aren't symmetrical? The left one is only one stud away from the center white block, and the right side is two away.  Just curious.

[NeXTSTORMING]

@kovacs88 Hmmm! Both sensors are absolutely centered behind the “NEON Engines” structure. However, the LEDs of the NXT Color Sensor are not centered (it is a multi-sensor that can be used as a light sensor, color sensor and LED lamp). Reflection is also altered from the fact that the blue neon surfaces are consisted of horizontally placed transparent 1x2 tiles and vertically placed transparent 1x2 brick...

Thank you for your comment!!!

[kovacs88]

@NeXTSTORMING Oh, I know the sensor you're talking about. I didn't think you would mount them differently since you're creations are always flawless. This thing is beautiful though. I've made some pretty cool stuff myself, but never in such a compact, clean package as you manage to do. Can't wait for your next creation.

[JediJordan369]

@NeXTSTORMING Wow you just blew my mind!

[kovacs88]

You sir are born to do this. I'm an NXT fanatic, and have spent thousands of dollars on my collection, and I have yet to put something together like this.

[maribakumon]

you SERIOUSLY need to make a scripting tutorial.

[pilzkopf3]

nice Work.

[Jrf2112ROBLOXStyle]

Second.

Nice video.

[cttsaggr]

Are you the chosen one?

You seem to combine

Sci-Fi + HD + HITECH + NXT + LEGO

So you must be the chosen one.

Proud to know you .....

Keep walking ....
