I think this set is currently the pinnacle and embodiment of the spirit of the Technic line. It simply crosses almost all the boxes and represents what the theme is all about. Thank you for the comprehensive review, can't wait to grab one for myself.
Best helicopter yet, and I've been a Technic fan since 1990! Only negatives are the main rotor shaft is very wobbly and the choice of colours used for the colour coding is too garish. Would also be great to get the new 3x19 frame to stiffen the rear tail section. But overall it's fantastic, mostly for the new, more realistic elements created to make the main function more realistic! Bravo!
Fantastic model! Very cool mechanical functions and finally the rotor spins really fast. It is already discounted in my country at several retailers and costs 155 USD, which is not a bad price!
This is one of those sets I probably wouldn't buy for myself but I love to see the mechanisms used, it's quite an amazing model. Thanks for the upload! Also the twist at the end 😮
Great review! Since we have the return of the multidirectional gearbox, I wonder what other type of LEGO Technic vehicle there will be in the near future with the multidirectional gearbox.
I really enjoyed this set but i am a little bit disappointed because i messed up somwhere and the power functions are all really slow, the rotor blade moves very slow i guess i messed up the gearbox somewhere. My blades spin on fast mode similarly to the slow speed in the video. My landing gear and winch are also slower than the video. Im going to rebuild this set more carefully so i can get these things to work properly. Also when i tilt the helicopter the blades slow down even more dramatically. Even a slight tilt makes it so its hindered greatly.
Kinda happened to me, it wasn't the building looks like the motor itself doesn't have enough power to operate in high speed... my stalls and shuts down right after switching to high speed
09:05 I agree. The colour scheme is a bit off putting. I think it would’ve been better to stick with the traditional yellow, as featured on the blade tips, and Red rather than the red white and luminous yellow. It would also match colour schemes with the firefighter aircraft which would’ve been nice, in a sort of Lego Technic fleet!
Wait a little... Before doing an alt build for this one, we are still waiting for the b model of the motorcycle! XD we had a nice sneak peak during the 20k video, but still!
Mime broke after two uses of the fast gear speed . So annoyed. One of the gear isn't rotating when I switch the speed and this has also meant the landing gear won't extend and the winch doesn't get pulled in 😢
Is anyone having issues with the motor in high speed? Mine stalls and shuts down in less than 10 sec after switching to high speedĺ

I still prefer the Heavy Lift Helicopter, mainly based on (fantastic) looks and how you managed to cram all that functionality into that price point using only one PF M motor and mostly off the shelf components. I can appreciate the techical details involved with the new one but it leaves me cold, just like the supercars and their invisible useless gearboxes.
Did you encounter any stiffness in the collective assembly? I ask because I am currently building this set and everything is working properly except the collective is extremely stiff and doesn’t allow for proper pitch in rotor blades. Seems kinda wonky and I can’t find any mistakes I might’ve made.
Check if the collective is moving the blue gear on the helis right side, behind the pilot seat. Mine wasn't working at all because there was a gear there that happened to be disconnected.
Honestly I like all of the Lego Technic aircrafts but you know the sad thing about the whole aircrafts Lego doesn't make them strong enough to fly so even if it was fast it was not fast enough to lift the plane up but hey at least this is a plane I am your father
So the right helicopter is yours and the left one is Markus's, but who's behind the Airbus? The only thing I dislike is the weird color scheme, otherwise worthy of this years Technic flagship (even though we all know it was supposed to be the postponed 42146).

You are definitely going to enjoy the build.

Seen it a day before release day and picked one up. Hands down my favorite set. Looks awesome, and the blades moved way faster than expected!!!!

That definitely should not be the case. Make sure everything spins freely and the gearwheel combinations are correct.

Another great review. I can’t wait to build this one.
Omg, really like the structure. That’s amazing!

Thanks
Bro the sticker so good
Just ordered mine!
Wait a little... Before doing an alt build for this one, we are still waiting for the b model of the motorcycle! XD we had a nice sneak peak during the 20k video, but still!
No worries. I said that I need to finish the BMW alt before I start on this.
@@grohl666 Speaking of the b-model, I was wondering why LEGO stopped making b-models for their large LEGO Technic sets.
@@Mocsfromscratch Lack of resources.
Just got this for Xmas building it now
Mime broke after two uses of the fast gear speed . So annoyed. One of the gear isn't rotating when I switch the speed and this has also meant the landing gear won't extend and the winch doesn't get pulled in 😢
Sorry to hear that. The parts should be easy to relace though.
@grohl666 thanks but the rebuild would kill me. Only my third ever set so I'm not an expert
I own this set, and it’s a miracle!
Is anyone having issues with the motor in high speed? Mine stalls and shuts down in less than 10 sec after switching to high speedĺ

Thank you very much. It Is incredible that Is has less than a half of the parts.
Alternate model: robo-samurai (with a blade being katana). Although we already had Bionicle
Or maybe even General Grievous (from Star Wars) with 4 swords
Something similar Is my secondary idea
I want to see windturbine alternative model of this set
Nice. How about a review of the other 2 kits that's in the video?
I have already done both mine in the past. Just search the channel.
@@grohl666 Okie dokie. . . .I'll see what I can find, thankya sir & thankya for sharing your video.
Can you tell me how your rotor can spin that fast?
Mine is slow
It has two speeds.
nice! and yay we have a good heli rip to cheaperlego tho so angry with the price increase also thanks for the review! :D
Did you encounter any stiffness in the collective assembly? I ask because I am currently building this set and everything is working properly except the collective is extremely stiff and doesn’t allow for proper pitch in rotor blades. Seems kinda wonky and I can’t find any mistakes I might’ve made.
Mine Is pretty loose. Check out the mechanism by moving the swashplate when the covers of the top are slid aside.
Check if the collective is moving the blue gear on the helis right side, behind the pilot seat. Mine wasn't working at all because there was a gear there that happened to be disconnected.
Imagine if it could atleast hover like not to off the ground but just in the air
How much thrust would this need to really fly.
Enough to lift a kilo and a half.
Самый отличный набор по технической части!
Why you didn’t put stickers?
Because I rebuilt it into Freedom Gundam
We already have a phrase “ my little son” in folk’s speech but not decent… 😇 It’s used in comparison of size of two objects having one purpose.
Honestly I like all of the Lego Technic aircrafts but you know the sad thing about the whole aircrafts Lego doesn't make them strong enough to fly so even if it was fast it was not fast enough to lift the plane up but hey at least this is a plane

One of us two but not me.
@@grohl666 Cheers!
I want to see windturbine alternative model of this airbus that was always on my head to build windturbine of this set
Not likely to happen from me but maybe somebody else can pick this idea up.
@@grohl666 yeah maybe i have to build that since i do have the airbus
Best helicopter
Can they fly? Also just one of them
No, they cannot.
@@grohl666 oh ok, because I've seen videos where they can. Maybe they are fake or modified ones
If only it could actually fly.
If we even forget about the power/weight ratio, how would you control it then?
👏👏👏
This gonna be my 14th helicopter collection! 😆
@@nenotechnicspeed Lucky you.
@@grohl666 2 of it is your 42020 🫡
Good morning
Same to you.
