    If you wanted the cars to actually go through the loop giving them an extra piece of track to travel before they hit the loop and adjusting the booster speed accordingly could've worked. They were jumping so much before the loop that they didn't have any traction so of course they all fell off the loop halfway up.

    a way to make the boosters that uses the MK 1 mody, make it so the wheel has a spring on it so it can go along the curvature of the hotwheels, giving it more friction on the booster, thus more boost

    One improvement might be if you could adjust the speed of the booster wheel, so you know less carnage. Or possibly even more. Hot Wheels also has a playset with a Monster Truck booster. I've been hacking the playset so the monster trucks can go through a loop but not much power after that. I simply don't have enough Lego Technic. So many different hobbies.

  • @BrunodeSouzaLino
    @BrunodeSouzaLino 2 роки тому +17

    Other people have commented on the spring loaded nature of the wheels... They also have to be on the sides of the car low to the ground. If you put them on top or high up, you're losing energy pressing against the car. Also, some boosters have four wheels: two are idlers and two boost. The idlers help stabilize the car and make sure they stay on the track.

  • @FriendlyOne_
    @FriendlyOne_ 2 роки тому +23

    I would suggest putting mechanism on a spring so that the spring would try to push the wheel towards the track resulting in a better grip of the car. Mechanism in the vid(1 wheel on top of the car) can only grip car's roof thus loosing momentum. This would also work if you can manage to do it with 2 wheels on the side that push inwards

  • @Caldoric
    @Caldoric 2 роки тому +46

    I have a design recommendation... Why have the wheels be 100% stationary, when they could be located on "swing-arms", allowing them to better adjust to individual car shapes? Either have the swing-arms pulled together by some rubber bands, or use springs to push them together from the outside (if you're using the two-wheel design). For the single-wheel design, a spring-pressed vertical swing-arm should keep things working well...
    Actually, what of you swapped out the wheels themselves for treads/tracks, particularly ones like on the old "Manas", "Muaka and Kane-Ra", and "Tarakava" sets from early Bionicle (or wherever else you can find suitable examples)?

    • @MattRevs
      @MattRevs 2 роки тому +2

      Swing arms could be achieved with careful utilization of the shock absorber piece (76138)

    • @altaccount4697
      @altaccount4697 2 роки тому +1

      That is a way better design. Only issue is if a big blocky car hits it and it bounces up when the front contacts and then misses the rest of the car. Lego doesn't make them, but compliant wheels are best for shooting funny shaped things. Source- FRC.
