Here is Episode 2 of the Ultimate LPE Guide, The Video of my New Flat 6 Boxer LPE is coming out this week. You check it out on MOCHUB here - www.mochub.com/moc/flat-6-boxer-lego-pneumatic-engine-green-gecko
Cool switch. I'm looking forward to seeing how you mod the new switch.
Thanks
Really nice overview of the new switch, I was a bit disappointed that the switch has restricted airflow and the length of the lever though.
Thanks, same
i had high hopes for the new switch : (
Same, i will still try to modify it.
Awesome vid!! Enjoy watching your channel😂😀👏👏 it always cheers me up!
Thanks
Wow thanks for the review cant believe they made a new switch!
great video as always!
Thanks
all are needed in certain situations
Very intresting !
*and detailled !
hey green gecko i am ordering tons of big cylinders and old valves and tubing as my Christmas present i plan on making your i three right now i am working on building your semi auto rubber band gun you are the most amazing and impressive you tubers that i know keep up the awesome work I hope you had a good holiday
Awesome, have fun building the inline 3 lpe
thanks
cool nice
Thx for the insight into the new valve. I also had the impression of "slower" air flow when testing the valves. Very good you proofed it. Do you think drilling the holes will be enough to optimize airflow for LPEs?
I'm not sure yet, but i do know they will never be as efficient as the older types.
@@GreenGeckoLegoTechnicWorkshop Then I hope you have enough of the older ones ;)
Sure do, more than enough ; )
@@GreenGeckoLegoTechnicWorkshop Think so :D
Noice!
with care it could be modded a bit, but it also has a stacking potential, i.e. multiple switches per piston
Would this mod make any difference when using these as hydraulic cylinders in conjunction with the AquaBrixel? If so, would you recommend doing anything in this tutorial differently, such as omitting lubrication?
when the switch is set to position 1 and pump engaged, where does the air captured in position 2 go? Does it just disperse back into the switch?
I'm really interested to see how you're to modify these switches. I also opened one up myself to check if it would be possible. Having seen the inside I figured I wouldn't try for myself. Though I do think it is possible, I'm just wondering if the success rate is high enough or whether every other switch will be leaking afterwards. Especially with their current price (€2,50-€3,00 a piece) it would get real expensive real quick.
Currently I'm using these switches, with only a drop of oil in them, in a pneumatic train. It makes actuation a lot smoother, but still has that little stiff bump and no high airflow though.
I think the best way to mod them, is to drill out the ports on the inside and leave light gray the back plate on. i haven't had time to experiment modifying these yet. when i mod the older type switches the success rate is about 90%. I also saw your W16 lpe, really nice job 👍
Does this mean there is less air pressure loss compared to the older ones? Could you compare air pressure loss between them?
Sorry I'm late but is this switch hard to move like the previous ones or is it very loose
The best part of these is that you can hook them directly to servo motors and tell an sbrick to turn them only 40º or so for some RC pneumatics.
I think they are well suited to MOC's and Builds where to the valves needs to be RC
Nice observation
why dont they jus seal on the circumference? is it not possible to produce accurately enough?
on the topic of new pneumatics ive wondered what the inside of the new large pump looks like
Might pull it apart and have a look...
How's the friction?
Nice!!! Maybe Lego on purposely made it harder to modify? Just like Apple makes it very hard to open up their products?
I wouldn't think so
Are you using this for the bugati w16
That was the plan
Are you also gonna made a video about modifing the switches
Did the switch work after you took it apart? I tried take apart the 2nd gen switches like lpe power did but I could never get them to work afterwards. It would be totally worth it to me if you could port the new switches.
I did manage it glue it back together and it worked again. i do not recommend taking it apart tho, they are not well suited to LPE's. I am releasing a new MOD guide video for the 2nd gen switches and the 1st gen. Stay tuned
@@GreenGeckoLegoTechnicWorkshop Awesome can't wait!
How do I mod
Is that a Lepin Gear?
No, i don't have any Lepin
@@GreenGeckoLegoTechnicWorkshop
That is weird, did Lego change the design of this gear a while ago? Because this LEGO gear from like 5+ years go looks different in the middle, but the Gears used in the Black Porsche 911 I just got from China look the same. Lego must have changed their molds a while ago and the China bois followed up right away then XD
oh it seems more difficult to mod :( why doesnt lego company develop switch that has more air flow and less friction.i think they should consider this
Because the switches are not designed for LPE's
Those new switches promised a lot, but seing the internals i am utterly dissapointed.
Same here, The design of the internals could of been done much better. I am still working on that DIY Rotary Switch, i can 3D print it in ABS now.
