Can we just appreciate not just the many hours that went into designing and building this but also the filming and editing. What an absolutely top-draw production. Well done.
I'm an engineer now, and when I was a kid, it was this exact type of thing that started me on the path that gave me my career. Thank you so much for making these amazing videos. I'm sure there have been countless kids who've had an interest in engineering sparked by seeing your videos.
Huge respect for this one!! You managed to not only build really complicated mechanisms in a really dense space, but even make it look good as well! Well done, truly!
What i love of this type of videos is the fact that it makes you see something you usually give for granted (an engine) and then make you realize how complex an engine actually is, and the amount of effort and trial and error engineers everywhere have to go through and the explanations of WHY they end up choosing a certain design. And all of that with Lego!
Me being a semi truck driver in real life, doing well over 65 hrs a week, just asked the boss for more hours so I can get the parts to build this... Nothing short of amazing!!!
I feel your pain brother, just got out the Shiternatinal about 3 months back. Now my dumb ass wants to be a steering wheel holder again, just so i can do the same hahaha

@@justsomeguywithsunglasses1876 modified piston that use metals, modified switches, metal universal joints which were all custom built by the Green Gecko workshop for this guy There are also tubes and bottles that he got from everyday stuffs
@@thetomster7625 air, water, steam, and wood/coal powered cars all used to be a thing. All were incredibly effective or had the potential to be with further study. All had the people working on them disappear. The number of times this happened is probably in the hundreds. Either way, I was just making a joke about it. Pretend you don't know all you want.
@@GawkGawk5000 Do you wanna refuel your car with the size of a truck every 3 minutes with air 🤦♂️ Pressured air requires more energy than anything else. You would need pumps that are powered from electricity or oil!
ok as someone who's worked on semi's before, it really made me smile to see how you wired the air up in the frame of the trailer, as real semi's have something very similar as they use air brakes. amazing.
@@rubindublone5932 That would require adding an unnecessary system just for the brakes with more things and parts that could fail. Also, that would require a pump for pumping the brake fluid all the way to the brake system on the trailer. Compressed air is produced as a byproduct from running the engine anyway so it makes sense to design the truck in a way that utilizes that air. Compressed air is also much easier to transfer meaning that when you attach a trailer to a truck all you need to do is connect the trailer to the truck using an air hose which "unlocks" the brakes on the trailer once sufficient air pressure is reached. This also means that when you disconnect the trailer the brakes automatically lock up since there is no more air pressure holding them open. Oh yeah and that same air is used for the suspension both in the truck and the trailer as well not to mention for adjusting the driver's seat. :)
@@jonikoskinen5334 its not that its hard to run hydraulic brakes as there are trucks with em and special trucks like dump truck and garbage truck already have a PTO (Power take off) from either the engine or transmission with a pump attached. Its just impractical to run it that far. Just the truck would be fine but running it all the way to the trailer would just be too slow. Fluid doesnt like to move in a quick manner at times air is just quicker. Also there are quick connect hydraulic fittings
@@rubindublone5932 youd mostly use hydraulic brakes on huge vehicles that have a much higher weight than an air system can handle. Air systems usually cutout at 110 to 130 psi before the emergency relief valve pops off hydraulic hits up to 300 to 500 with a panic psi of 600.
This is amazing! Probably the best air powered LEGO vehicle I‘ve ever seen in terms of functionality! That forwards/reverse gearbox function with the two switches is genius and actually quite simple at the same time. I’m glad that you mentioned Nicjasno and Green Gecko in this video as they’re two of the pioneers in the topic of LPE’s. I am very impressed, keep up the great work!
If you haven’t seen it already, you should take a look at the Lego Technic TRAINS channel. He’s got a pretty cool air-powered “steam” locomotive. I’d say it’s almost on par with this here
@@michaelgplayzz that's 89 US cents lol I do commend him for even a small donation tho. always great to support people who put time and effort into their work.
I like how you broke everything down to its basic components in this video. Not only is it a cool bit of engineering. It's also greatly communicated! I really learned something here
This is easily one of the best and most impressive Lego builds I have ever seen. Well done. I can’t help but wonder how you made that gear box and air valve switch system so small!!! I would also loooove seeing an updated version with a larger gear box and different speeds!
@@nickkonkle541 I have in fact! Another absolutely amazing build, but to me it didn’t have that sense of wonder that this did. I’m just impressed by how this all fits within a tiny little truck body.
This is so incredible. I love the idea of powering the truck with air and only using the batteries to accurate things and steer. You'll get way longer play time with that than just straight batteries, and it would take all of 2 minutes to recharge.
I don’t think a lot of my friends, or anyone will agree, but this is by far one of the coolest things I’ve seen. In terms of the overal mechanics, not like explicitly the truck itself, but just that this works and can move.
I appreciate that you went through the trouble of not only making it look like a semi, but also making it so the engine was visible under the hood AND looked like an actual engine under a hood. I mean, yeah, it’s no v8 diesel, but there’s only so much you can do in a space that small with Lego, and you pretty much did all that could be done. Bravo.
I like this concept also. The V8 and I3 are awesome. Apparently in the 2000s, a Luxembourg French company made a car powered by compressed air. They kept on promising to release the car, but the promises were hot air. No production model ever made it on the road. Thankfully, Brick Engineering here has got a prototype that could work. ;) Also, the cat at 3:25 is adorable.
Can people like you finally stop using that pathetic ancient way of commenting thinking you're still so edgy and cool? "Can we just appreciate blablablabla"
You're an inspiration to LEGO Technic builders everywhere. Your creativity and skill are truly remarkable. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world.
My biggest take away from engineering classes is the school is there to teach you how to teach yourself. If you want to play lego technic for the hands on practical learning aspect, go play legos! If you want to do it in a school setting, start a lego club and tell your friends to play legos with you. I am not sure how having a teacher will improve your experience but if your school is anything like mine was, use the teacher’s time before class/office hours to ask questions about side projects (like lego club). My experience was that they loved to talk about practical applications to what they were trying to teach. It shows that you are one of the maybe 10% of students that is able to digest knowledge rather than simply parrot it back.
@@troycongdon That's a utopian sounding school to me lol. In our school teachers aren't even available outside class timings and even during classes they rarely answer questions
As a mechanical engineering student and someone with interest in LEGOs I really like your builds. Because it shows me that even in the most unexpected places I can still find my childhood combined with my area of expertise.
Really love the video! Epic project, the engineering process shown is also really cool. Tip from the aerospace world: we proof test pressure vessels while they're filled with water (hydrostatic testing) instead of filling it up with air all the way. It checks the stress the same way but has no explosive energy when it bursts, unlike if it is filled with air. Leak check with air ok after it has been proofed with water. Obviously not safety critical for this application but it's like the best practice that scales to things that go up to many thousands of psi of operating pressure :) Also, if you're looking for a cheap pressure vessel + regulator system to power the engines for a longer time, paintball tanks are really affordable and some are even lightweight composite overwrapped PVs (rocket technology basically). Cheers!
I don't fully understand why the water is better. You're suggesting filling up the bottle with water instead of air up to the same pressure, right? Why is water not as explosive? Are you maybe suggesting filling up the bottles partially with water? How exactly does that make it better, because there's less air that's compressed and therefore less energy stored, while still reaching the same pressure?
soft drink bottles can be taken to safely hold 120psi. forget what theyre actually rated for. more than a bike pump will reach? the tubeless schraeder valve is sort of the weak point. @@weeknieunknowing push on a steel bar. it doesnt explode, does it? until it starts bending, deforming... it will take a lot of pressure. put water in a pipe and push it, it (shouldnt) explode. acts much like a steel bar. until the pipe fails. then the water still takes up as much room outside the pipe as it did inside... everything gets wet and thats it. put enough air into a pipe to act like a steel rod... think of the pressure. it wants to go back to taking up as much room as it did before being stuffed into the pipe. only partially filling the pipe ends up with compressed air that again, wants to occupy more space outside the pipe than inside... air inside hydraulics is bad.
@@weeknieunknowing , it’s because it takes an extremely small amount of “squish” to put water under immense pressure, as compared to air A better way to think about it, imagine you had a water bottle filled with water and another one filled with air. How much would you have to squeeze the bottle with the water and the bottle with the air to make them both have 14 psi of internal pressure? Liquid’s incompressible nature means that it builds pressure QUICK, but it also dissipates that pressure quickly as well. A few drops of liquid can easily be the difference between a few psi. Air, not so much So there is no eruption with water, it’s more like a quick dribble before there’s not enough pressure to continue doing work
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ i give islam that... they dont go spamming everyone, or banging on their doors demanding a pay-out, or demand that everyone devote their life to an imaginary delusion of a few madmen from some desert in the middle of nowhere 2000 years ago...
Very impressive. Everything from the design of the mechanisms to the aesthetics of the semi-truck. Am also loving how your cat just checks in on you and watches the end result. The cat be like, "Human? Are you making custom lego cars again?"
I can't afford this nor skilled enough to build it, but I was smiling like a kid watching this masterpiece get build. Undoubtedly the best Lego built I've seen
You can see he already uses parts that are made for this kind of stuff so I assume he is not designing all of this himself. You can find designs on internet. Not trying to diss on guy, I think you are just easily impressed.
This is one of the most impressive models made out of Lego I've ever seen! If you ever get the chance, it'd be neat to see you combine this with the clutch, and gearbox you created as well!
Wow, this is the coolest RC car I've ever seen. You finally pushed me over the edge, I'm ordering lego technic. Gotta get back to the projects I left when I was 10
I have a great idea! Building air-powered mechanisms with LEGO is fun, but they typically can’t operate for very long. Even the ones that last a while generally only run for about 5-10 minutes at most. My idea is to use a container made from LEGO or another material (even a bottle would work) filled with dry ice and a bit of water to generate air pressure for a much longer time. What inspired me was seeing videos on the internet where dry ice is used to explode soda bottles easily. Since this is a new project idea, I know there will be some challenges. One of the first issues that comes to mind is that dry ice will continuously increase the pressure. To manage this, the pressure chamber could have a valve that releases some of the gas once it reaches, for example, 1.3 bar. This is entirely my idea ,I don’t know if there’s an example of this online, but I think it’s really good. I am Turkish, and I used AI to translate this text into English.
I absolutely LOVE this. I used to drive trucks and seeing something THIS detailed, elaborate and even seeing it drive and watching you (attempt) to park it in a space like a truck was just...it made me smile from ear to ear. Truckers are often just unseen in the world, literally and figuratively, I'm definitely gonna remember this vid though, it's fantastic.
Here’s an interesting idea: Lego Airship. Not like a drone, like a 20th century blimp. Idk how doable it would be, but I think it would be really neat to see it be tried.
I made this as a final project for high school senior engineering class. We made it out of helicopter parts, trash bags, and balsa wood. My job was designing the controller! That was the moment I decided I wanted to be an engineer- I wanted to work on cool projects with cool people.
You are an absolute madman in the best way possible. Kudos to this amazing piece of engineering that even looks and sounds incredible. I am thoroughly impressed, even after all the craziness I'm used to from your videos :)
Semi truck driver here- this creation is amazing. Having a fully transparent trailer would make my job so much easier! You've earned a sub my friend, I'm curious to see what other projects you've done!
@plutonium well semis don't have rearview mirrors; when driving, how often do you glance up to see what's behind you? Also, if you're hauling any trailer +/- 10 feet tall, your side view mirrors become obsolete if you turn more than 10° left or right. Basically semis are rolling blind spots and a majority of that is because of the trailer. Were it invisible (and the freight inside I suppose) then it would be much easier to see where the wheels are when backing up. Granted, you get used to it, but it would still make a huge difference were it invisible.
@theValkyrie maybe; but the camera needs a cable all the way to the cab for signal, plus a line for power too- and the electric pigtails aren't rated fit that, so you'll need a dedicated cab for that trailer. Then you'll need to find space on the dashboard for the screen itself. Once you've got that done, you'll have to complete for condensation on the camera lens. And if it's not condensation, it's dirt/dust, road salt, or glare from the sun obstructing the view. And above that, everything that I just described can go utterly wrong in a moments notice. And if that's the only way you know how to back the trailer you'll soon find yourself up the proverbial creek. I'm not saying it's a fully flawed idea, but I think it's more of an over-engineered and under-thought idea that flies in the face of the KISS method. Maybe in a few years when electric semis take over, it might be more prevalent.
The fact that your builds are starting to blur the line between lego parts and actual car / engine parts is awesome! Great work on this, I'm excited to see where you go from here :)
Impressive, just impressive... I don't know what's your profession, but as a Mechanical engineer here, I guarantee you that the ways you used to make the assumptions and calculations were genius... The quantity of time you've spent researching and building such engines already speaks a lot too. Maybe something similar to a turbocharger next time? Well done, always waiting for more from you !
Air Hog built stuff like this back in early 2000s, they had a monster truck, airplane, ect that used a pneumatic engine. They were very fun but they broke gears between axel and engine due to torque. You had a short run time between pump ups as well but it was enough to be able to catch up to it. They were pretty fast.
@@produced_by_bake Look at the volume of the "fuel" compared to the size and performance of the engine. Compressed-air powered full sized vehicles suffer from similar efficiency problems, and only really have any use with ultra-light aircraft, if at all.
This is officially the coolest Lego build I’ve ever seen - an impressive feat of engineering, to be sure, and creativity & perseverance. Insanely cool.
This reminds me of a really cool Lego set we had. It was a Lego Technic set with a truck, trailer, and pneumatic arm for picking up Lego logs! The arm even had an air pump to hold pressure in the system while you operated it! The downside is that the pump was really noisy, but it was endless fun for young me to just load and unload stuff from the trailer with the arm, not needing to touch anything but the controls.
i’ve never gotten to experience testing lego pneumatics, this is a great concept! All in all, I really enjoyed the structure of this video. Keep up the great work! I also loved to see your cat ❤️
Watching this for the second time, and I'm still blown away by everything about the build. The video format and editing are pretty great, too. This is easily my favorite lego-related video I have ever seen on UA-cam. Keep up the great work!
I CANNOT DESCRIBE how much i love this, and that it actually SOUNDS like a Motor while its moving... cause it IS ONE.... just made with LEGOS! i wonder if this could be done for an actual Pickup?!
The issue seems to be fuel supply. That RC truck is driving around with its fuel taking up the entire trailer. Generally, we use fossil fuels because of its energy density. A relatively small volume of fossil fuel can drive a car hundreds of miles.
@@dudejo I wonder if a sealed metal container would be better instead of a bottle, you could fit much more compressed air into that bottle. Could also do with using less cylinders, maybe starving the engine a little as it doesn't wear like a petrol or diesel motor. It'll simply just slow the motor down.
@@PunkLoch a smaller, weaker engine would be feasible if the transmission had multiple gears, with on-the-move shifting. Otherwise, you basically need the bigger engine to provide sufficient launch torque. a smaller, metallic container could probably help with space, assuming a LEGO frame can handle the potential weight. Also, you'd need a stronger air pump to refuel that container.
You sir, are GENIOUS! The fact that you did this with LEGO and most of the people watching, including me, could not even do it with metal parts is crazy
This is astonishing. This shows that underated people like him are all around UA-cam but not discovered yet. Edit:My last two braincells did not check the sub count before commenting
“I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain, than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweat shops.”
This is frankly just incredible. Not only that this is possible with LEGO (wow), but also the sheer amount of design work that went into it as well, not to mention the aesthetics of it too!
Even the transfer case/ transmission is actuated by an air cylinder!! That’s amazing! The only thing I can think of to improve this would be multiple forward gears but I’m sure that would be even more complex and near impossible to fit into the truck.
For me, this was the most layman, dumbed-down, and FUN version about how an engine (internal-combustion or otherwise) works than any "...For Dummies" book I've ever picked up, lol... 😀 I totally wanna try something like this! I learned a lot, thanx! 😁
If nothing else, you somehow managed to create and capture the most beautiful sounding lego engines ever. I could literally listen to these run for hours, especially the one at 2:02

I've always been a fan of the Technic lego, since early 80's. Used 12v motors from tape recorders and built a lot of RC lego cars and machinery, using a simple two stick wired remote. Watching your videos made me remember those times. Still have a big bucket with all those legos, but dont have time right now to play with them (I'm 51). I'm an inventor and bought a 3D printer recently, been using it for prototyping. Thank you so much for this video, you are an incredible engineer.
Os technic também são a minha loucura mas infelizmente, não sou do tempo dos sets pneumáticos. Boa sorte com as impressões, aposto que é uma vertente muito divertida. Eu cá me estou a focar nos carros telecomandados convencionais.
@@danisantos3255 Olá Dani, estou de facto muito entusiasmado com o poder de tornar as minhas ideias realidade através da impressão 3D.

Abraço
These always seem like a lot of fun to make. Sadly, I'm not mechanically-minded enough to do any of this. That's okay though, since your videos are consistently fascinating and educational.
You should start a crowd funding thing to get a system set up so you can go around to schools and educate the teachers with some of what you do and the kids would learn so much if the science behind everything was explained well by them. This wouldve been a dream to do in science when i was a kid, good work mate and big love from down under❤
That's actually not a flywheel but a free wheel,a type of clutch. Flywheel stores energy to make engine run smoother and free wheel prevents parts from breaking.

@@rubindublone5932 youd mostly use hydraulic brakes on huge vehicles that have a much higher weight than an air system can handle. Air systems usually cutout at 110 to 130 psi before the emergency relief valve pops off hydraulic hits up to 300 to 500 with a panic psi of 600.
This is amazing! Probably the best air powered LEGO vehicle I‘ve ever seen in terms of functionality! That forwards/reverse gearbox function with the two switches is genius and actually quite simple at the same time. I’m glad that you mentioned Nicjasno and Green Gecko in this video as they’re two of the pioneers in the topic of LPE’s. I am very impressed, keep up the great work!

This is so incredible. I love the idea of powering the truck with air and only using the batteries to accurate things and steer. You'll get way longer play time with that than just straight batteries, and it would take all of 2 minutes to recharge.
I don’t think a lot of my friends, or anyone will agree, but this is by far one of the coolest things I’ve seen. In terms of the overal mechanics, not like explicitly the truck itself, but just that this works and can move.
And it works with compressed air instead of plain electricity.
@@igordasunddas3377 feck I love physics
I’m a random person on the internet and I agree with you

I appreciate that you went through the trouble of not only making it look like a semi, but also making it so the engine was visible under the hood AND looked like an actual engine under a hood.
I mean, yeah, it’s no v8 diesel, but there’s only so much you can do in a space that small with Lego, and you pretty much did all that could be done.
Bravo.
I like this concept also. The V8 and I3 are awesome. Apparently in the 2000s, a Luxembourg French company made a car powered by compressed air. They kept on promising to release the car, but the promises were hot air. No production model ever made it on the road. Thankfully, Brick Engineering here has got a prototype that could work. ;) Also, the cat at 3:25 is adorable.
you know, it actually _was_ an engine under the hood, thats what makes it so bloody cool and, c'mon, driving on air? how cool is that? :-D

@@ronnana694 dude that’s sick.
well why not? you are young, get off your arse and do something
My biggest take away from engineering classes is the school is there to teach you how to teach yourself. If you want to play lego technic for the hands on practical learning aspect, go play legos! If you want to do it in a school setting, start a lego club and tell your friends to play legos with you. I am not sure how having a teacher will improve your experience but if your school is anything like mine was, use the teacher’s time before class/office hours to ask questions about side projects (like lego club). My experience was that they loved to talk about practical applications to what they were trying to teach. It shows that you are one of the maybe 10% of students that is able to digest knowledge rather than simply parrot it back.
@@troycongdon That's a utopian sounding school to me lol. In our school teachers aren't even available outside class timings and even during classes they rarely answer questions
As a mechanical engineering student and someone with interest in LEGOs I really like your builds. Because it shows me that even in the most unexpected places I can still find my childhood combined with my area of expertise.
Really love the video! Epic project, the engineering process shown is also really cool. Tip from the aerospace world: we proof test pressure vessels while they're filled with water (hydrostatic testing) instead of filling it up with air all the way. It checks the stress the same way but has no explosive energy when it bursts, unlike if it is filled with air. Leak check with air ok after it has been proofed with water. Obviously not safety critical for this application but it's like the best practice that scales to things that go up to many thousands of psi of operating pressure :) Also, if you're looking for a cheap pressure vessel + regulator system to power the engines for a longer time, paintball tanks are really affordable and some are even lightweight composite overwrapped PVs (rocket technology basically). Cheers!
I don't fully understand why the water is better. You're suggesting filling up the bottle with water instead of air up to the same pressure, right? Why is water not as explosive? Are you maybe suggesting filling up the bottles partially with water? How exactly does that make it better, because there's less air that's compressed and therefore less energy stored, while still reaching the same pressure?
@@weeknieunknowing Water isnt compressible so it wont expand when the pressure gets too high and also leaks are more visible than with air.
soft drink bottles can be taken to safely hold 120psi. forget what theyre actually rated for. more than a bike pump will reach?
the tubeless schraeder valve is sort of the weak point.
@@weeknieunknowing push on a steel bar. it doesnt explode, does it? until it starts bending, deforming... it will take a lot of pressure.
put water in a pipe and push it, it (shouldnt) explode. acts much like a steel bar. until the pipe fails. then the water still takes up as much room outside the pipe as it did inside... everything gets wet and thats it.
put enough air into a pipe to act like a steel rod... think of the pressure. it wants to go back to taking up as much room as it did before being stuffed into the pipe.
only partially filling the pipe ends up with compressed air that again, wants to occupy more space outside the pipe than inside... air inside hydraulics is bad.
@@weeknieunknowing , it’s because it takes an extremely small amount of “squish” to put water under immense pressure, as compared to air
A better way to think about it, imagine you had a water bottle filled with water and another one filled with air. How much would you have to squeeze the bottle with the water and the bottle with the air to make them both have 14 psi of internal pressure?
Liquid’s incompressible nature means that it builds pressure QUICK, but it also dissipates that pressure quickly as well. A few drops of liquid can easily be the difference between a few psi. Air, not so much
So there is no eruption with water, it’s more like a quick dribble before there’s not enough pressure to continue doing work

Wow, this is the coolest RC car I've ever seen. You finally pushed me over the edge, I'm ordering lego technic. Gotta get back to the projects I left when I was 10
Have fun!
I have a great idea! Building air-powered mechanisms with LEGO is fun, but they typically can’t operate for very long. Even the ones that last a while generally only run for about 5-10 minutes at most. My idea is to use a container made from LEGO or another material (even a bottle would work) filled with dry ice and a bit of water to generate air pressure for a much longer time. What inspired me was seeing videos on the internet where dry ice is used to explode soda bottles easily. Since this is a new project idea, I know there will be some challenges. One of the first issues that comes to mind is that dry ice will continuously increase the pressure. To manage this, the pressure chamber could have a valve that releases some of the gas once it reaches, for example, 1.3 bar.
This is entirely my idea ,I don’t know if there’s an example of this online, but I think it’s really good.
I am Turkish, and I used AI to translate this text into English.
I am somehow most impressed with how you came up with a pressure relief mechanism for refilling the bottles. So cool
I absolutely LOVE this. I used to drive trucks and seeing something THIS detailed, elaborate and even seeing it drive and watching you (attempt) to park it in a space like a truck was just...it made me smile from ear to ear. Truckers are often just unseen in the world, literally and figuratively, I'm definitely gonna remember this vid though, it's fantastic.
Here’s an interesting idea: Lego Airship. Not like a drone, like a 20th century blimp. Idk how doable it would be, but I think it would be really neat to see it be tried.
I made this as a final project for high school senior engineering class. We made it out of helicopter parts, trash bags, and balsa wood. My job was designing the controller! That was the moment I decided I wanted to be an engineer- I wanted to work on cool projects with cool people.
I would think that the plastic is way to heavy to make a blimp of reasonable scale.

Semi truck driver here- this creation is amazing. Having a fully transparent trailer would make my job so much easier! You've earned a sub my friend, I'm curious to see what other projects you've done!
how would it make it easier?
@plutonium well semis don't have rearview mirrors; when driving, how often do you glance up to see what's behind you? Also, if you're hauling any trailer +/- 10 feet tall, your side view mirrors become obsolete if you turn more than 10° left or right. Basically semis are rolling blind spots and a majority of that is because of the trailer. Were it invisible (and the freight inside I suppose) then it would be much easier to see where the wheels are when backing up.
Granted, you get used to it, but it would still make a huge difference were it invisible.
@@mrblack5145 Doesnt samsung make trailers that have cameras on the back and sides of them? I thought i read about that somewhere
@theValkyrie maybe; but the camera needs a cable all the way to the cab for signal, plus a line for power too- and the electric pigtails aren't rated fit that, so you'll need a dedicated cab for that trailer. Then you'll need to find space on the dashboard for the screen itself.
Once you've got that done, you'll have to complete for condensation on the camera lens. And if it's not condensation, it's dirt/dust, road salt, or glare from the sun obstructing the view. And above that, everything that I just described can go utterly wrong in a moments notice. And if that's the only way you know how to back the trailer you'll soon find yourself up the proverbial creek.
I'm not saying it's a fully flawed idea, but I think it's more of an over-engineered and under-thought idea that flies in the face of the KISS method. Maybe in a few years when electric semis take over, it might be more prevalent.
The fact that your builds are starting to blur the line between lego parts and actual car / engine parts is awesome! Great work on this, I'm excited to see where you go from here :)

Air Hog built stuff like this back in early 2000s, they had a monster truck, airplane, ect that used a pneumatic engine. They were very fun but they broke gears between axel and engine due to torque. You had a short run time between pump ups as well but it was enough to be able to catch up to it. They were pretty fast.

This reminds me of a really cool Lego set we had. It was a Lego Technic set with a truck, trailer, and pneumatic arm for picking up Lego logs! The arm even had an air pump to hold pressure in the system while you operated it! The downside is that the pump was really noisy, but it was endless fun for young me to just load and unload stuff from the trailer with the arm, not needing to touch anything but the controls.
I had that set too!

The issue seems to be fuel supply. That RC truck is driving around with its fuel taking up the entire trailer.
Generally, we use fossil fuels because of its energy density. A relatively small volume of fossil fuel can drive a car hundreds of miles.
@@dudejo I wonder if a sealed metal container would be better instead of a bottle, you could fit much more compressed air into that bottle. Could also do with using less cylinders, maybe starving the engine a little as it doesn't wear like a petrol or diesel motor. It'll simply just slow the motor down.
@@PunkLoch a smaller, weaker engine would be feasible if the transmission had multiple gears, with on-the-move shifting.
Otherwise, you basically need the bigger engine to provide sufficient launch torque.
a smaller, metallic container could probably help with space, assuming a LEGO frame can handle the potential weight. Also, you'd need a stronger air pump to refuel that container.
You sir, are GENIOUS! The fact that you did this with LEGO and most of the people watching, including me, could not even do it with metal parts is crazy
