  • hey, where can you get the PF-Motors without the whole bulldozer ???

  • LEGO Shop @ home web site.

  • will the nxt-g 1.1 have the Pf motor block?

    Plus, the other things that comewith the new lego technic pack the 2 recievers and remote.

    what do the recievers do? and how much do the lego technic products that have the new motors cost? im guessing the bulldozer has the most motors. very nice video :)

  • (1) The Motor block does not come with NXT G - you can download it from the HiTechnic web site

    (2) You can get two PF XL motors and two PF normal motors plus two receivers with the LEGO bulldozer (8275)

  • buddy can you make like a drifting car out of legos and motorize it

  • Hi AltF4ESCICON. I dont see why not. Why dont you send me a link to a drifting car you have in mind - and I will see what we can do

  • right now i'm working on an idea. the idea is to use the IR remote to send instructions to the NXT, the intelligent brick would then act as a bridge and regulate the remote's signal, passing it onto the IR reciever through the IR sensor. the concept is to be used with an electronic stability control, an ABS, and a traction control. so if i push the trottle too hard, it lowers my signal a bit in order to mainatin traction. or if i break, to pulse the breaks. and so on and so forth

  • what is the distance that the sensor will work on? I thought this can be used to remote control it.

  • Cool! Some models I just can't get a motor on...

  • OK thanx !

  • that wont work with the lego technic dirt bike. but nice job!

  • good

  • is it better to have 2 xl motors or 1 normal and 1 xl?

  • wow, nice!
