Another great tutorial! Loved that alg for placing the inner edges, good find. I think your video was gonna demonstrate some others but I took the first one and ran with it.
First tip I've sent to you, instead of gotten from you lol. Try reducing the edges until it turns into an original Pyraminx Crystal. F turn, followed by a down down up up on the left and the right, then undo the F turn. You move the outside edge into the correct spot with the F turn, then swap in a new, unsolved edge with dduu. Uses a lot less brain and a lot less full turn setups because you can move the edges safely with the dduu. Once everybody is reduced you just solve it like a Pyraminx Crystal without the availability of setup moves.
The circle corner pieces are equivalent to a megaminx edge. So, if you can identify them, you can solve the circle/outer corner pieces together just like a megaminx and save a lot of time.
I just solved mine last week! It's a really fun puzzle, but now I turned it into a true crazy puzzle by opening the mech and flipping the gray center into a 1 face! Now it's ridiculously difficult, and I am having a very hard time with it! 😵💫
Yes, that's because you've turned it into a mercury, which are definitely a harder type. I would actually change all centres except one into 1 faces (which will take some time!) and then you'll have a jupiter. Not only will it solve easier, I think, it will be much more fun. That's just my hunch. I might try it myself...
Actually, thinking about it more, I would leave two opposite centres as 0 faces and the rest 1 faces. That is the standard config for jupiter dodecahedron and it will make it easier to do the reduction.

Thank-you… checking the video now to see if I am going to be able to solve it or not. I don’t dare at the moment :)
If Mr twistypuzzling is making a vid, I will get.
