Lego pneumatic engine - flat 6 (boxer)

This is a large cylinder flat 6 (boxer) engine, horizontally opposed etc. You just have to build one... the alternative is saying Porsche has been wrong all along :-) This is a truly horizontally opposed, so the crank is 0-180-300-120-240-60. Of course, it is mostly due to that that the engine has so little vibrations.
By the way, I don't really believe the speed computer anymore.

@nicjasno yes it's a bad computer. I have another one now. I think the LPE's shake them up too much (-:

@DrDudeNL lightweight flywheel might help you rev quicker :P check my vids lol

[DrDudeNL]

@Hargak Cannot make it lighter than no flywheel at all, perhaps this is also a tip for you, and future videos :-)

@Hargak OK Mc Key!

@ivancito54 You ever use powdered graphite for lube? should save the plastic, the WD40 eats into the plastic a bit, while graphite will wipe off

[nicjasno]

Well.... It displays weird readings. Sometimes just removing the battery and putting it back in helps. I had this also sometimes, where a speed computer would display high rpm figures, where the engine was clearly running slowly.

[nicjasno]

Your speed computer is broken.
