I’m debating whether to get myself a Zetros, the main issue is finding somewhere to store it since I’ve got so many other models 😂 Thank you @RacingBrick content is on point as always!
I've got the LEGO Technic app-controlled Volvo 6X6 Articulated truck, and I've also got the Lego Technic app-controlled Liebherr 9800, but I want the LEGO Technic controlled CatD11 bulldozer.
The Liebherr is my favourite but I don't own all those sets - I don't have the tatra or dozer. There is one thing I don't like about Control+ - Power Functions had the same issue. I don't like how each set contains a hub and motors. After buying four sets, I have more hubs and motors than I would ever need. I would prefer to have the option to buy the model without the hub and possibly the large and XL motors since they are used in almost all sets. It would be better if the hub was sold with a large and XL motor - it would make the sets cheaper and it would reduce wastage. That way someone getting into the hobby would need to buy the model and the hub and motor set. Whereas, those with many sets would just buy the model and use the hub and large motors from their collections.
Too bad the new hubs have screws on the battery compartment. Another reason to get a Liebherr while you can. I was afraid the large angular motor was reserved to ugly spike white and baby blue from now on, but the Cat seems to have it in grey as well.
i actually quite like the look of the off road buggy and if i buy it my next choice would be to save up for the zetros because i quite like it's look and hill climbing performance. I like the extreme offroad 4x4 aswell but i think it will be retired before i can afford it, i am still very much a beginner at building my own rc vehichles so maybe i can look at some of these for guidance, and also use parts from my land rover which i dissasembled due to crackling, after having rebuilt and fixed the problem, just to have it come back a few weeks later sadly, i also have parts from the bucket wheel excavator, rally car, mobile tracked crane, a little fire truck, an airport fire truck, a pneumatif tree chopper (all of the models juts listed have been mostly or completely dissassembled for part use) so i have a good selection of technic parts to use, plus i have some pf elements: 2 XL motors, 3 AA battery boxes, 2 AAA battery boxes, 4 sets of lights (i think) 3 L motors, 1 M motor, 2 joystick remotes and 1 train one, plus 3 (or 4) IR recievers. I'd say at the moments i'm set to start building some cars though my parts are scattered troughout my lego room and i lack expertise. Awesome video and keep up the great work (btw i am not trying to brag about my parts i just felt like saying it)
I’m very excited about the upcoming LEGO Technic app-controlled transformation vehicle. If that set would have two large motors for the propulsion, I think it will also have another motor. I think it might be 2 times faster than the LEGO Technic off-road buggy.
Dear Balazs, Thanks for your videos. I really like them. I love the technic sets but I haven't bought any of the motorized versions because I'm a bit afraid of them. Did they work (push, pull and control by hand) when the motors are off? Will they roll if my little son will push them by hand when they are in off mode or can we drive the volvo 6x6 to the right direction by hand when the motor is off? By the way, is the volvo 6x6 has a fake engine or the parts are moving? Thanks.
I don't suggest to push the motorized sets, especially the ones with a gearbox like the 6x6 Volvo. Technically you can push the smaller cars but they have a higher resistance due to the drive train, so they probably aren't good for playing for a kid. Additionally there's no way to control steering manually.
@@RacingBrick So like the volvo 6x6 works with the smart phone only. But unfortunately we won't know will the app work 20 years later like the older technich motorized sets which works today :p
@@officemk8641 I don't think that should be the main concern today. You didn't know in 1986 that you will be able to play with Commodore 64 games on a portable color screen device in 2022, a.k.a. your smartphone. The protocol is open source, 3rd party control options are available today and I'm sure there'll be a way to control them 20 years from today.
@@RacingBrick yes is true. Maybe tracks in a carpet has more grip and the 42131 with his weight can pull every control plus set. For you wich is the best in this challenge?
@@francescoantonetti2827 my favorite is 42099. A very versatile set, with a few gear swaps you can switch between speed and very impressive crawling abilities.
I did not get it for review and it's out of stock everywhere around here, the prices are almost double on the secondary market. I'll get it sometimes next year.
Do you think there could be a dodge Daytona/ Plymouth superbird conversion kit for the charger? I made one out of system parts and it does loom decent. Would it be worth a whole new creator 18+ set?
It's funny to see how horrible the steering is on that buggy. I can't drive the thing in a straight line. If someone has some steering mods, than comment below!
By the way, could you compare the standard pu hub with the sixths ports hub from spike? Are they similar in capacity, but one has 2 more ports and a battery instead of relying on 6 AA batteries, or is there more to it?
@@RacingBrick so, if we use 3 motors for the propulsion of a moc, if only the hub differs, the spike's hub powered ones would offer less torque/speed then the ones linked to the classic's hub?
( to be honest, I am interested in the matter because I have an idea for a very interesting moc, but I don't like using 6 AA batteries each time, so I thought that the spike hub could be a good alternative as it has a battery... Until now, I only have PF elements, so, before buying PU elements I try to gather data, as they are quite costly, and the hubs even more... )
@@awes0men0b0dy9 for me... They come off when I use it on carpet. They either come apart from each other or the base that holds them will actually come apart slowly and allow it to slip.
@@awes0men0b0dy9 lol yeah it's no good... It pretty much just sits now... When it was new it didn't do this so I either have tracks that are stretching or I need to see how I can lock the wheels down better
I assume he shot the pictures in sequence and only moved what changes between the sets. Since all but the Liebherr have one hub, he didn't have to move it.
What a horror show: as a lover of (older) Lego Technic sets, I just could not bring myself to buy any one of these. The are all wrong for the same (Control+) and many different reasons and all way too expensive. Luckily, there are other brands who provide really cool, fun and demanding to build technic sets at reasonable prices. And by the way: five of the seven sets presented here are licensed, which with Lego means you get some stickers that will die a horrible death pretty soon. No prints, no challenge, no B models, no analogue remote control, no rechargeable batteries, no control of the motors and control you own (actually you do not own them), no compatibility, but horrendous prices and ugly blue, red yellow (chose your color) pins, axles and connectors? Lego is dead to me.
ok. i have all this set, can you tell me where i can buy THIS PIG IS AWESOWE!?
Here you go - www.amazon.com/Little-Live-Pets-PET-Single/dp/B08S3C6LCB
You didn’t add buggy which is very good
i love how the buldozer just does what he is designed for with the obstacles just ram them flat 🤣
4:56 CAT doing what its supposed to do :D
I didn’t realise how fast the Buggy set actually is.
I’m debating whether to get myself a Zetros, the main issue is finding somewhere to store it since I’ve got so many other models 😂 Thank you @RacingBrick content is on point as always!
I really like how the mercedes truck just took the last test like a boss😂
Thank you for your always facinating videos❤️ happy new year 🥳 and stay safe too 🍀

The CAT has insane offroad ability

Bulldozer was like "why go over it, why not through" XD
Thank you for great content. Looking forward for the new Lego room and happy now year!
Ngl I can’t even believe the year is ending
Looking forward to seeing your new Lego room! Happy New Year to you and your family Balazs 🤝
Boldog új évet Balázs!:)

The Zetros suspension, atleast for the front, is basically on the ground. Don't take it too seriously.
Thank you. Your content are very helpful for me.
Thanks and happy new year!

I can't wait either
Which vehicle?
@@guhhhh The 42140 app-controlled transformation vehicle. It’s a tracked control+ set that will be released on March 2022
I’m going to buy it to celebrate me finishing middle school and possibly turn it into some kind of ripsaw
Awesome video as always!
DOZER POWER!!! XD
( because he broke every obstacles in his way, and... That's supposed to be one of its purpose to flatten a yard, right? )

honestly it's sad that lego doesn't now that some kids even at the said ages who would want any of these sets don't have a phone
42114 is the best, cant be changed for centuries
this is jan1!
2023 is here!
I just started to love Lego Technic and I missed a lot of good sets.
For obstacle 2 and the bulldozer I think he counts
Damn I wish the buldozer wasn't too expensive for my budget.
Happy new year
@Racingbrick can you do a tug of war challenge between these models?
Hello from Italy👋👋
It very much depends on the surface, I did not include it because LEGO tires does not have enough grip
@@RacingBrick yes is true. Maybe tracks in a carpet has more grip and the 42131 with his weight can pull every control plus set.
For you wich is the best in this challenge?
@@francescoantonetti2827 my favorite is 42099. A very versatile set, with a few gear swaps you can switch between speed and very impressive crawling abilities.
When will we see the Home alone house?
I did not get it for review and it's out of stock everywhere around here, the prices are almost double on the secondary market. I'll get it sometimes next year.
@@RacingBrick Thank you🙂
Interesting how Top Gear rally car can climb to the end of the slope while 42099 and 42124 stalls
6:30 Whats up with the tow truck at the back?
It's stored on the shelf
Have not got all these at moment although I do want zetros and 4x4 off roader
Do you think there could be a dodge Daytona/ Plymouth superbird conversion kit for the charger? I made one out of system parts and it does loom decent. Would it be worth a whole new creator 18+ set?
42114 Volvo is hugeee
Happy New year🥳
Hi!!When are you gonna do the 42132 motorvycle set detailed build review?It is a very nice 10 dollar set
Already bought it, review will come this week
It's funny to see how horrible the steering is on that buggy. I can't drive the thing in a straight line. If someone has some steering mods, than comment below!
Fun video. Although obstacles 2 seemed a little unfair.
You cannot really make a fair obstacle for vehicles this different :)
Why am I laughing watching this video? 😂
Why is the volvo so weak and sound so bad? I was thinking of getting it but it sounds like it barely moves.
It's slow and noisy, but that's how it works out of the box :)
I didn't know Volvo is that bigger, than Zetros!
Happy New Year!l
are you gonna do a video on the motorisation of the 42128 lego heavy-duty tow truck?
Don't think so, that's a very nice manual set, it's good this way :)
Someone already did it
@@catzzzz1450 iknow but unbrickmes video doesn't cover it well I think and he is very vague
You can make yellow tank but Lego want be happy.
Sariel said that R9800 excavator is bigger than Cat D11?Is it true?
You can clearly compare them here :)
@@RacingBrick Can even conpare they both look similar size😵💫
You missed the transformation vehicle
You missed the publication date
By the way, could you compare the standard pu hub with the sixths ports hub from spike? Are they similar in capacity, but one has 2 more ports and a battery instead of relying on 6 AA batteries, or is there more to it?
The purpose or the Spike Prime / Mindstorms hub is very different. It provides lower voltage and the focus is very much on the coding abilities.
@@RacingBrick so, if we use 3 motors for the propulsion of a moc, if only the hub differs, the spike's hub powered ones would offer less torque/speed then the ones linked to the classic's hub?
( to be honest, I am interested in the matter because I have an idea for a very interesting moc, but I don't like using 6 AA batteries each time, so I thought that the spike hub could be a good alternative as it has a battery...

If you buy the parts off BrickLink it’s not as bad. Then you can just get rechargeable batteries.
At least, that’s what I did👍
@@richardjulien1329 I think so, but never tested it actually. Will look into this and publish my findings.
Nice
Pleb. As you see. the Liebherr Excavator is quite slow. How to fix? Firecrackers. Need I say more?
Man these tracks for the D11 are giving me the worse time on my carpet.

I have only 4x4 X-treeme off-roader
Has anyone noticed how at 1:42 the hub actually remains its position?
Also happy New Year everyone, the fireworks are already going crazy here XD
I assume he shot the pictures in sequence and only moved what changes between the sets. Since all but the Liebherr have one hub, he didn't have to move it.
It's also a style choice. He alternates between magnifying or demagnifying the image so the transition doesn't skip in scale.
The only thing I can buy here is that pig 😂
Generally speaking, motorized LEGO vehicles are too slow
Should i get the liebherr or should i wait for more lego technic powered up sets
There are another Control + set coming this March
A C+ set for $69 with dumb hub and 1 l motor
