Hello Everyone, here are the Instructions for my inline 6 cylinder LPE you guys was asking for. The Engine can also be bought on MOCHUB, just like my V8 and 1 cylinder LPE. I've got a Brand New Engine design coming out in a week, it is a Flat 6 Cylinder Boxer Engine. Can you guess what type of car i am going to put it in? Comment Down Below, also i will post a WIP photo in the Community Tab on my channel for you guys go check it out 😀
A supercar maybe?
here's a clue, what sports car brand has been using a flat 6 boxer for a long time?
porsche or subaru? haha i'm not too much into that kind of detail XD
porsche
@@GreenGeckoLegoTechnicWorkshop the page to buy it does not seem to be working
LEGO: how many blue pegs do you want?
Green gecko: Yes..
Haha
Bro I am not joking , you are à genious ++
Nice. Would be exciting to see this connected to a lego gearbox and to see what speed it can do.
sounds like a good idea...
Reminds me of the 2.4 litre straight-six Volkswagen diesel engines that Volvo used in the late '70s and '80s. Keep up the good work, mate!
Thanks
looking foward to your new engine! i cant help watching your videos again and again
Thanks, just need to get the instructions done for it now
Green Gecko Lego Technic Workshop oh another question how can i buy your switch？i ve tried many times but still failed to get them work :(
i am putting out a new mod tutorial video soon, this one will be many times better. I've figured out i new easier way to mod them
Green Gecko Lego Technic Workshop that must be great and have you heard of the new switch?i believe it will fit the engine better if it can be modified :)
AWESOME!!! Thank you
no problem 😀
Good job!!!
thanks
A while ago I bought 2x3 mm silicone tube, would that work as wel on this engine or would they pop off easier? I got kinda the feeling that they do pop off quite easy (2x3) what about yours?
i use 2x4mm tubing because of the thicker wall. also if your tubing has oil on it and slips off you can wash it out with hot water, then it wont slip off. 2x3mm will work, 2x4mm is much better
Green Gecko Lego Technic Workshop thanks will try it out!
Since air eventuelly escapes, would it be possible to add a Lego compressor? And would you then achieve more torque than what the compressor motors would use? I mean, will you get more power to run a big vehicle than simply just use electric motors? Or will you get more torque?
Another question, if you used smaller/fewer cylinders for pumps in the compressor, will you avoid that pressure build to a level that can damage the components?
Great! Will build when I have enough cylinders :)
you can get them from bricklink at a good price
Green Gecko Lego Technic Workshop yes
Does it work without a battery? How does it work? Sorry if I'm asking for too much. Great video! Edit: Ok now I partly know, but does the air tank work by itself? Please notice this 'cause I want to also build it.
Could you get a higher maximum RPM if you had separate feed lines from your air tank to each switch instead of having the three switches share the same 2x4mm tube? It seems like that one tube is the bottleneck that limits peak RPM.
I have thought of doing that, i will try it and see what difference it makes. Thanks
Hey, I have a question. How would you regulate the airflow into this thing when the compressor is constantly running or theres a constant supply of 60 psi available? Would you use a switch to let air out until its needed? Or something else?
Yes i just use a Switch
Is it better than an XL motor ?
And can you control it with PF system ?
Yes
I don't have any qualifications in mechanical engineering, but am interested to hear whether much thought went into the design of the crankshaft and the "firing sequence" of the cylinders. I know it's important in a combustion engine.
The "firing sequence" or engine timing is the most important part of a Lego Pneumatic Engine. A lot of work and prototypes went into developing the Crank shaft and switching mechanism to be efficient as possible. It is not a i3 doubled up, that wouldn't create a true inline 6 engine. Thanks for the question 😀
One of the main reasons why a i6 is more efficient than a i3 is because you can pair 2 cylinders up with 1 switch, reducing friction and increasing power. i am still a fan of the i3 design, they sound really nice when they are running well.
i like how compact the small ones are, my new flat 6 boxer uses the big ones for more power.
one switch can be paired up with two cylinder only if their stroke is at the same time, eg: ones going up and the other down. This is what i did for this engine and many others.
Could you please make it with non modified parts to show how well it runs like that?
it will run the same only slower, i will show my next engine running with non modified parts as well.
Thanks!
Hey,
What use as Air Tank ? A bottle?
Check out my Air tank and Compressor video, i use Soda bottles or a LPG tank sometimes
when will you put your new switch modifying video mr green:)
it will be out on the weekend.
What tubing do you use??
I buy it off eBay, make sure to get the 2x4mm size.

YOOO! IS THAT A 2JZ
Basically NA 2JZ
I only have 2 so how could I make this a 2
is it possible to make this into a single cylinder?
Yes but then it needs a flywheel. All you need to do is take off one of the cylinders and it should still work
How did you get all your lego's brick ?
what do you mean?
Green Gecko Lego Technic Workshop sorry i don't speak English very well 😆
So I want to know where you buy your lego to build your pneumatic engine
i buy my parts from Bricklink, it is cheaper to buy the engine from MOCHUB if you don't have many pneumatic or Technic parts.
Green Gecko Lego Technic Workshop thank's 😗😋 I really existing to see the next engine
Are the cilinders modified?
yes, and the switches. it will also run without modded parts too, only slower.
Ok
How many psi can it handle
60psi
Where do I get one if these? That's not 150$
You can only buy my engine from MOCHUB, they are not sold anywhere else. $150 for all the parts brand new is about as cheap as it gets.
Please make a version of the engine with new valves!🙏🙏🙏
i plan to make some engines with the new 2018 valves once they become available on bricklink, the new old ones from sets like the Unimog are terrible for LPE's because of the mounting positions
Thats sad because I don't use bricklink, I only use a shop in russia, and they might be really expensive and possibly sold out.
have you heard of brickowl? it is like bricklink. you can always buy my engines from MOCHUB anyway
Yeah, I have, but it is also quite inconvenient and I have to pay about 5$ for one because of shipping)
how about ebay? Shipping is also expensive to get stuff to New Zealand, but you get used to it.
W16???
great idea
I would like to make it to an air compressor with an tank to clean my computer for dust.
A TANK or a truck
no, good guess tho
Can you add inbuilt compressor system powered by batteries for powering up LPE while making avtoros shaman and sherp? ua-cam.com/video/DOxoGTuwl0M/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/RUV1yWlxRbw/v-deo.html
Powering up LPE with bottles is not a good idea(just my own thinking) you can directly add a compressor if you can power it up with batteries,above links may help you.
Hope I have given some sensible advice.... and yeah a really good video this time and what vehicle you will make using this engine????
This is can be found powering my Pneumatic 8x8 Tatra Truck on my channel, that is good idea but if you use a compressor at the same time you can't hear the Engine Sound. I plan to use a 3000psi air tank in my next Pneumatic Vehicle MOC anyway.
