Impossible CLIMB - Experimental Lego Vehicles

  • In this video, I will show you how to make a Lego vehicle that can climb off-road slopes. I will start by building a simple vehicle and then test it on a 20° slope. I will then make modifications to the vehicle to improve its climbing ability, such as adding better tires, lowering the center of gravity, and lengthening the wheelbase. I will continue to test the vehicle on steeper and steeper slopes until I reach the limit of its climbing ability.

    Not only is backward driving legal, it is a common technique used by off roaders.

    For the tracked vehicles, you need to have gears pressing down in the middle of the belt too.

    • @spencer4679
      @spencer4679 4 месяца назад +7

      yeah actual tracked vehicles have a roller in the middle to keep the track straight, i think that would help in this test to keep the weight evenly distributed

      yeah For tracked vehicles, it's essential to integrate gears pressing down on the middle of the belt for optimal functionality.

  • @acynder1
    @acynder1 9 месяцев назад +48

    I feel like a longer version of Track-and-rola would do better, especially with road wheels to keep the track flat with the ground. You could clearly see the track in the current design not properly aplying presure in to the ground.

      Track and rolla is actually digging through all "terrain" and reaches and grips on to the material underneath, while all other cars grip is based purely on the artificial terrain, it is not particulary fair tbh.

  • @ImMacke3000
    @ImMacke3000 10 месяцев назад +41

    Please try this! I think a vehicle with almost comically long tracks will actually perform very well. The biggest obsticle is either that the wheels simply dig in the "dirt" instead of making the vehicle move forward OR it tips over. I think really really long tracks will solve both problems, since with tracks that are say 3-4 times as long as the vehicle itself it gets a LOT of surface area, which counteracts the digging that wheels tend to do, and because of the length and center of mass it wont really tip over.

    The real difficulty is not only the slope, but also the looseness of the road. I wonder whether there is any vehicle that can overcome it.

  • @donalfellows2274

    You should try the new track pieces from the 42131, and maybe some inspiration from that model's track tensioning mechanism too.

  • @jordandrescher5685
    @jordandrescher5685 4 месяца назад +14

    on the tracked machine, the only way to make it work as intended is to attach a series of rollers to the bottom of the frame, maybe your typical tire to stretch out the track to make it flat, without this, there wont be any weight dispersion and your tracks wont have any flotation, in short, think of a tank, or a bulldozer. hope this helps

  • @paulosborne6517
    @paulosborne6517 10 месяцев назад +32

    Several of those designs took advantage of the retaining batons under the surface of the cork chips, therefore their climbing abilities are invalid because they took advantage of tractive assistance the other designs didn't use.

    @Ding_Bat 4 месяца назад +2

    The tracked vehicle requires rollers. These rollers actually carry the weight of the vehicle, and thus spread the load across a larger part of the tracks, and thus the ground, which is what you want.

  • @RyanWithAviators
    @RyanWithAviators 4 месяца назад +1

    A longer wheelbase tracked vehicle with bogey wheels midspan in the tracks between the two end sprockets would help with lowering the ground pressure, and it won't flip as readily.

    Best thing is, instead of high friction of contact area like most other solutions, that thing was just changing the direction of force to a better angle! Would have loved to an actual Walker in these, too
