that's a freaking CVT!!!!!
-
oh i see how it works very nice work man ill sub because this is awesome. its a lot better then my manual 10 speed transmission i made out of legos
-
Nice One.
I've been watching your instructinal videos and have used a system based on your models to build my own transmission and gearbox. However, I'm using it to build up speed and reduce torque on a Lego Flying Device.
Keep up the great work!

is that the same principle that a real car A/T work? also is that the same principle of the manual overide in an A/T?

may i know the mechanics behind this contraption?

@tklein930 I made an eight part instructional video, but it may not answer your question. The physics of this device is purely mechanical energy. Rotational energy results in a centripetal force, which acts against a rubber band inside an rpm governor. If the RPM increases to a certain point, the centripetal force overcomes the inward force of the rubber band and causes the gears to shift in order to maintain equilibrium.

Wonderful!
It might not look "pretty", but it's one of the most beautiful things I've seen in Lego; how did you get the plastic components to handle the flywheel load at high RPM? I would have expected the plasic to warp and/or fail.

@DanielleHallett. Actually, several peices have failed over time. The biggest issue I have had is with melted shafts. This is one of the reasons I abandoned this particular design for the transmission. I want to acheive the same thing with a slower fly-wheel speed.

@booneman625 No, many others know it. I thought it was obvious, otherwise I would have mentioned it.
