TLDR: - Pulley edge speed: *281km/h = 175mi/h* - Pulley edge acceleration: *507000m/s^2 = 51682g* - Estimated centrifugal force on whole pulley: gravitational force of 30kg on earth I assume this is LEGO part 4185. It has a diameter of 2.4cm and therefore a radius of 0.012m. The velocity at the edge of the wheel at 62109RPM = 1035 rev/s is v = π·2.4cm·1035 rev/s = 78m/s = *281km/h = 175mi/h*. This means the centrifugal acceleration at the edge is a = v^2/r = 507000m/s^2 = *51682g*. Which is an *INSANE 50000 times the acceleration on earth*. Considering that the acceleration is lower closer to the axle and most of the wheel mass is close to the edge, I estimate about 30000g of effective centrifugal acceleration on the whole wheel. With a wheel mass of 0.97grams ≈ 1gram the centrifugal force corresponds to a gravitational force on a mass of about *30kg*.

Well that's terrifying imagine a real circular saw blade on that beast it'd probably spin the teeth right off the blade lol awesome man keep up the good work
Hey! Torque was very low! Hard to say as I didn’t try but I imagine with gloves on you could stop it instantly with ease probably just by touching it let alone grabbing it
just think yall. 1000RPS the wheels is making 1000 revolutions in the time it takes a person to snap. The average blink is 300 milliseconds so .3 seconds. So in 1 blink the wheel rotates over 300 times. It sounds so mundane at a glance but in reality that's freaking insane. The only thing that can compare in craziness is how fast space craft move. (14,000 mph or 4 MILES a second).
Cheers for that! When you think about it like that it really is crazy to think! How some race cars last for thousands of miles revving past 10k is mind blowing!
I'm not sure what the L motors are like, but I know that the XL have a big gear reduction built in, so spinning them faster is wasteful vs just using a M motor. Someone will probably tell me there's no gearing inside the L, in which case, just add more motors
i once had a lego windmill (which ran 24/7!) and its axle got some serious wear! there was lego powder around it till i put some oil on it maybe you should oil this (it may reach 200,000 rpm)!
Hey I used lots of lubricating oil! Half a can! I had to keep applying it each run I should of showed this. I think part of the problem was the model being on wood and vibrating, it needed rubber legs. And thank you very much 😀
Bro you're crazy😂 I recommend mounting a v8 or v12 to that if it fits or a Lego engine at all and speed it up until the heads fly >:D hope you have a great weekend and stay safe and fit ✌🏻
Hey dude thank you so much and you too! I only have one vintage Lego engine but that’s a great idea lol. It was from the original red Technic car! I will try that out but worried about it seizing up 😂
Hey Demetri thankyou! Yes those L motors are not cheap but I do buy the big sets second hand(42100) and it doesn’t work out too bad if you sell parts back 😀
how don't the axles melt and start smoking? and how does it spin with so much friction? if you have the motors the other way the last gear will probably have no seen movement! super cool! keep it up! also when you get that fast you probably need to have a metal wheel as the plastic will blow up! :O
The balanced forces on the stages also helps to keep the forces on the bearings manageable A very clever design for combining the torque of the many motors needed to overcome the friction. The same speed can be achieved in a single motor with precision metal gears so the effort required here is a sign of the size of the task undertaken.
The key is Balance the wheel and shaft and good bearings in the high rpm areas :) in the video hear buzzing and whinning on 30%-40% load it causes the shaft isnt center ,the wheel isnt balanced properly and the hole is much bigger than shaft.
Hey Chris I used a lot of lubricating oil each run but the 60k runs destroyed them two 5 axles very quickly! I should have showed this! I’m attempting this wheel spinning off now! Cheers 😀

Cheers Nick I was kind of hoping one would explode as it would make a good thumbnail pic lol. For more rpm I think the frame needs to be more rigid, literally no give in it. Some more power would help too but I think it’s near the limit for me.😀
Hi Josiah cheers! I used a few types. First wd40 but the last axles were still melting a bit! Also Olive oil again but it’s thick but it does a great job at protecting! Then I tried some silicone oil which seemed to work the best😀

That's pretty darn fast for Legos, but if you really want to see (sort of) something that _really_ spins, just shoot an AR 15. The rifling spins the bullet up to around 350,000 RPM, now _that's_ fast lol.
Rimspeed is the parameter for energy storage. The stress/mass ratio is governing paramter. So composites come in sight, instead of lead. I demonstrated high enegery values per kg with a composite flywheel, (36000 rpm at 0,3 m diameter) but the bearings at very high revolutions in near vacuum(!) , the motor/generator and the safety casing were a limiting factor. Beside that gyroscopic effects are a point in vehicles. It becomes too complex, so modern batteries have won the race.
Hi there thanks for that! Btw I’m not sure if you’ve seen my tracks spinning fast video? Would you know how much weight I could lift by using the centrifugal spinning force or what calculation I would need? Any help is much appreciated 😀

Hey there. The problem with a single motor or input would be the axles can’t take the torque and just twist and snap. So with Lego you need several input axles to spread the load unfortunately. I will try one more time to see if we can best 100,000😀
@@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines Three solutions that come to mind just off the top of my head. I know nothing about Lego so feel free to ignore me. You've probably already thought of these but on the off chance I can inspire a solution: First is possibly finding a way to reinforce the initial intake axle.

@@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines WAIT YOU ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT?!
@@watsmyu989 of course I love robot wars or other versions 😀
@@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines Oh, so from what im understanding, you grew an interest in robot combat after watching Robot Wars, leading to you to discover BattleBots, This Is Fighting Robots, and possibly more, and when you discovered that Cobalt was made by the same people who made Carbide, you had a new favorite combat robot in BattleBots, being Cobalt of course. A less or more than a year pass, and you discover my comment, leading you to reply happily. But that's just an assumption I made out of the blue to keep this conversation going
@@watsmyu989 haha I like it! If I’m honest I think my brain has merged both models together which would make sense now you mention they’re the same people!
I’m currently watching the series of battle bots on Netflix(not finished yet)
I started watching robot wars 23 years ago! Time flies 😮
Please make a wheel launcher. Imagine launching that gear at 60000 RPM
Great idea I’m playing about with this idea now 😀
This is why some tires say "not for higway use" .. If wheel goes to fast you gon break the internet.
Thats aggressive😯👍
If you want even more rpm, try brushless motors with lipos, you wont be disappointed 😉 540 size brushless motors would fit lego and can run on about 3s lipo
That would be mad! For now I will stick to the challenge of Lego but I will definitely try other things in the future! And thank you too 😀
Very nice😍
Hey there thank you 😀
You're gonna create a spinning black hole if you keep going like this :D
Haha I like it! I will try one more time😀
tip: grab youre most and 2nd most powerful moters basicly all ur moters
I do have a few more, maybe next time😀
1:10 the sound it gave off turbo honda vibes
Love it throws the tire off.
Nice!
Challange: mac 1. Capture the sonic boom at the outer diam. May be achievable with an approx 40mm diam, maybe the spinning wheel could be machined from aluminium...
I like this idea thanks, I wonder…😀
Now make it into an op table saw by changing the wheel with a lightweight blade with the right fitting
I have done already but I will be making one with a metal blade soon 😀
