Larger scale . . .
Is it possible to create some items at a larger scale i.e. V12? Also some 6-7 speed gearboxes would help (both with reverse) . . .
Scale
Of course it is. But you will not be able to mount them into a vehicle. Such models would be only for display purposes.
Custom product
the price is very expensive. Why do not take buyable instruction of gearbox, train or engine ? I could be usefull fot user wich add part.
Maybe 80€ is a good ideas to instruction, and It will pay your fantastic work on LPE and other stuff.
And maybe with an autorized and secured acces to watch instruction on website. Not downloaded for securised an pirated.
Custom product
You know, that the moment we put something downloadable on the page, it will be immediately pirated.
Custom instructions
not downloadable, juste watching, but it could be also printscreen the page.
I create a L3 based on your work. I can put instruction on web or not ? Because if you protect your work, you protect the inspired work. What can I do please ?

steering systems?
I was just wondering, do you design steering systems?
Instructions
It would not be very appropriate if you would post instructions of our engine designs.
Steering
Well, of course, but steering means the whole front suspension, since everything there is linked and can't be viewed separately.
Instructions
Ok; but it's not our engine, in fact the system is equivalent but not the valve system.
I understand, I will do a video but not instruction.
Video
I make the video :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9GFA7VgYic
I think I not reveal the real technique of your engine. Mine work good but with Drilling cylinder and switch, Its could be better. But I wan't. I hope I am not say to much about your engine. Please tell me if I break copyright.
You don't
I have no idea what you're saying in the video, but as long as you don't post the exact same design, it's fine. The scotch yoke isn't a secret or anything. It's a very nice way of doing an engine, and it has a better torque curve than a conrod system.
lubing
Do you lube turntables in the differential and naves?
Lubrication
We lubricate every rotating shaft/component and turntable-differential at least twice:)
Custom product
You're right Nico71, the prices ARE very expensive!
Prices
The problem is, that people will have no idea how to properly modify switches and cylinders and how to make the tubing. If you take the price of instructions, and the material costs, people will pay more for the engines than if they buy them from us as they are.
And our products are very good value, and run really great!
Prices
I think the prices for the pneumatic engines are well worth its money because it's very difficult to drill the 2mm hole in the cylinders/switches without getting leaks..I bought the inline3 engine a couple of months ago and I was VERY pleased with the product. I love that engine.. It doesn't take up a lot of space and it's very powerful.
All I can say is if you're going to buy parts for an engine and make it yourself it is close to impossible to make it as good as the LPE-power product. You get what you pay for.
Cheap motor
Hey Nicjasno, can you make the v8 motor cheap for me?
Cheap motor
How am i supposed to do that? The only way you can make it cheaper is if you send in 8 pneumatic cylinders and/or 4 switches. Other than that it's not going to be cheaper.
Cheap motor
Ok,I won't ask any more.
Cheap motor
There is too much work involved in making the engine. You underestimate how labour intensive this is. Read the Wiki about how we make the engines, to get a glimpse.
Staff
Nicjasno, how can I become a staff member?
Staff
You can't.
wankel
is it possible to make a rotary wankel engine?
Staff
Why?
Staff
Because we do not need any staff.
Staff
Ok!
Joe Maruschax
I think this kids story is amazing!
tubing
hi there. how do you make the tubing fit properly onto the pistol? i know that you use an attachment, but what kind? could you please post a picture onto my youtube channel? thanks.
instructions
hi, i was wondering if you guys could send me a instruction manuel for the inline 3. if you could send it to my email that would be great! find me at acmilgrim@verizon.net
Sorry, no instructions
Sorry, but we do not have instructions for the engines and even if we had, we would not send them out (they would be available as a download if we wanted to distribute them).
W16 engine
Is it possible to order a W-16 engine similar to the Bugatti Veyron engine?
Instructions
I believe that i have all the needed parts to create your engine, but I would need some form of instruction manual to create them.Just looking at a picture doesn't give any clues
V12
Hey.
How much would a V12 engine cost?
New type of V6
Would it be possible to make duel cam V6 using two of your new inline 3 cylinder engines? How much torque would be possible.
V6
Yes, it is very possible, a prototype V6 was already designed and tested. Torque output is about double of our I3 product. Check it running by clicking HERE.
engins
If we come up with a good engin design,can we send it in so you can fine tune it or make a copy of the design?
New ideas
We always welcome new ideas.
parts
Is there any way you can e-mail me a list of parts for me tosend in so you can build me an inline three engin?
new idea
If i send in all of the parts, except for hte pnumatic parts can you build me an three cilinder engine, or can you send me the pnumatic cilenders and swiches.
parts
i think making an engin out of legos is awsome but every time i try it never runs right.
Thats the hard part...
Indeed, these engines need perfect timing and if you want it to run well, you need lubrication and drilling. (my inline 3 runs 700+rpm
If you want about 100rpm motor google for some instructions or visit ninjancos blog/website he has old instructions there
you should make a new engine
you should make a new engine with the small pneumatic cilinders (4 cilinder or 3 cilinder)
New engines
This will not happen.
1. Do you have any idea how grossly expensive the small cylinders are?
2. Those engines would have no usable power.
although the small cilinders
although the small cilinders are exspenciv i made a two cilinder engine(cilinders and swiches not driled out) that goes 1080 rpm but it is not a good design.
Power
They have not enough usable power. So for us they are useless.
small piston engine
I want to buy a custom engine with small pistons.
the size has to be max 9 studs wide, 13 studs long max, and 7 studs high.
th drive axle needs to be in the middle of the width, and as low as possible. how much would that cost.
Hm..
How many cylinders are we talking about?
woooooooooooooops!!!!!!!!!!
forgotten to say, I wanted a 3 inline with small cylinders
Size
Considering the size restraint, wouldn't an electric motor serve your needs better? The small cylinder engine really doesn't have any usable power.
and the big cylinders
how long can i run the inline3 2.2 on 2 liters of compressed air at 4 bar.
