Lego Pneumatic V2 Engine

[trishytree]

BIgger Flywheel i think but you got a good set up going. i thought about this so much as a kid good job

[Mysteria9]

Hey I just got an idea! Have a crank attached to that wheel that pumps the pump, and we have perpetual motion! It's a scientific lego breakthrough!

[couvidan]

MORE POWA!!! lol hook a compressor up and record it....

[MegaRallycar]

I hope V2 stands for version 2 cause thats not a V2 engine

[TheRustyHamster]

its not a v it is horizontally opposed.

[misternick2]

adding 2 more will make it smother

[Champy8181]

[PaperEngine]

iam not good at air egninges, but is it possible to make a 1 cylinder enige?

[stezzacat]

@PaperEngine yes it is they are very common

[PaperEngine]

@stezzacat thanks, do you also know if they are strong? strong enough to push at least 2000 grams?

[stephencoxismint]

@PaperEngine y diddnt you just say 2kg?

[jamie56795]

@stephencoxismint Probably the same reason that mechanics say 20mm instead of 2cm

[stephencoxismint]

@PaperEngine yes

[McLidl]

You need to modify the cylinders and the switches. Just use a 2mm drill and extend the holes and you will get an enormous difference in the air flow through the cylinders.

[puddle331]

i tried tht and the intake just crumpled ass soon as i aplied preasure

[McLidl]

Well, you need to seal the switch with epoxy or something after you're done. It's glued together from the factory.

[puddle331]

thank you and il do it next time

[RevanantGod]

Version 2? >.> youtube people.

[bedeone]

that's not a "v" engine, that's a boxer engine ....

[RAH101]

or flat 2 cylinder engine....

[bedeone]

depends on how the crankshaft is made up.

[Dareeude]

@bedeone No it's not a boxer, because the pistons in a real boxer is firing at each half of a turn.

That engine was "firing" at the first quater and the second half, and not each half of a turn.

So that's not a boxer, but a nice engine anyway ;)

[stephencoxismint]

@bedeone i know how stupid is this guy :S :L

[FastClones]

@bedeone thats an opposite twin

[LegoTech53]
