hey! i just got into big cubes... which would you think is better to buy for me, moyu aosu v7 single UV or the aochuang v6 triple UV?
@daferade18 күн бұрын
If you really wanna get into big cubes buy the meilong 7x7 v2m, its the best 7x7 rn and is crazy cheap. I you feel intimidated by the layers, go for the aosu non UV. If you dont know a lot about big cubes, magnets and uv are not going to make a lot of a difference.

Do you think that stronger springs for the meilong 6 can be a cheaper alternative to ball core?
@laiscubeАй бұрын
Possible. I've tried a friend's Meilong 6 which he swapped for stronger springs (I actually helped him do a 9-hole Florian mod, there's a video on that). But I think there's a limit since the cube itself was too slow, so at most you should only go with slightly stronger springs.

As always, great video!What product did you use to dissolve the glue of the wing magnets of your aosu v7? I want to change the strength of my single track Aosu v7 , the magnets are way to strong for me. Which magnets would you recommend?
@laiscubeАй бұрын
My Aosu v7 is a triple track, and the middle layer has one unguled set of 3x2 magnets by default. I replaced them with and glued in 3x1 N40 magnets. I did not use any glue-dissolving products, that particular set of magnets was simply not glued from the start, and only held in by friction. You can refer to my Aosu v7 explanation video to see exactly which magnet is this.

This video is from 2021. Here's the update from 2024: Qiyi has a made 9x9 v2 that has the same internal mechanism as the v1, but with several upgrades including: 1- adding the Aofu GTS's anti-deforming mech, which is a huge deal considering how easily the second layer pieces pop or cause deforming lockups on the v1 2- sizing it down to 68mm which is the size of the diansheng 8x8 itself 3- making it factory magnetic The 2-shell (5x5 inside 9x9) design of the Qiyi 8x8 and both their 9x9s, theoretically makes the cube less solid and stiff than the Diansheng 8x8 and 9x9 which have a 3-shell (3x3 inside 5x5 inside 9x9) design. Combining 2-shell with the anti-deforming mech seems to be the best way to make an 8x8 or 9x9. Funny story regarding point 1: I once made a video of me failing to sub-8 a Qiyi 9x9 v1 because 2 pieces popped during PLL, and a KZbin short titled 'Why every bigcube needs the Aofu GTS's anti deforming mech' which is clipped from that video. The inclusion of the anti-deforming mech in the v2 almost feels as if Qiyi watched my video and answered exactly what I asked for.

Didn’t this happen in the Xman Flare?
@laiscubeАй бұрын
X man flare used 2 magnet switches per side, with 2 strengths each totaling to 4 magnet options that required 6 switches to adjust (not counting the inconsistent ones where the R face has stronger magnets than the U face for example). The Infinity 2x2 one uses 1 screw to control the magnet distance, leading to infinite options that require 1 screw to adjust. I did draw some inspiration from how the X man flare used than anchor corner though.

If not for the release of the Aochuang v6 and Gan 562 it would have been worth. For spring compression watch Chris Olson's Wuque spring compression tutorial, just be careful not to compress the springs too much (I think I overdid it). You can aim for 0.5mm shorter than the original length.

@laiscube2 ай бұрын
If you are talking about designing a cube, you can add some form of shallow, widspread anti-stick design (like a Gan honeycomb or Moyu dragon scale). It should be less smooth than a full flat design (like the Meilong 4x4), and less crunchy than a deep, localized anti stick design (like how several older cubes have a few thick and obvious stripes). Although I don't think it would make a perfect sandy feel. This is just an empirical based conclusion though.

Other companies are using the RS3 mech already, even before this video, and in some cases (like the original Shengshou Fangyuan 3x3), even before the RS3 itself. And as demonstrated in the early part of this video, Vin cube has even used the mech outside of 3x3. The RS3 is simply the number 1 cube to successfully use this concept and therfore popularize it.

I just tried that, and it's bad. The magnetic strength is too weak, so the slices don't align well. Replacing them with weaker magnets is the way to go. Another option is to glue in some weaker conventional edge-to-edge magnets.

Update since this is a old video that's still getting views: The non WCA bigcubes, in order of best to worst, as of 2024 are: This list was made from a mix of my own personal experience, and pictures of the cubes I've seen online. 1. Diansheng (+) factory magnetic (+) smaller (+) covers 8x8-15x15, except 14x14 which is still in prototype phase Rumor has it that the Meilong designer changed teams and re-released his designs, which is why the Diansheng mechs are more similr to Meilong than anything 2. Meilong (+) the 10x10 and above are fastest and lightest of the bunch, and personally I think it's the highest quality in terms of the plastic and the overall build (-) the 8x8 and 9x9 are lower quality and much slower and tighter than the 10x10-13x13, might be because it was outsourced to a different factory (-) due to the designer having changed teams, this series is unlikey to have new members beyond 10x10-13x13 The 21x21 structurally would qualify as a Meilong, appears to be of similar quality but is slightly pillowed. 3. Qiyi mixed (+) and (-) similar to Meilong, might be more stable but in exchange is slower (-) weird colour scheme, especially with the pale blue and slightly purple-ish red (still better than having red replaced by pink and having an extremely red-ish orange like a certain series from 2016) (-) currently only covers 8x8-11x11 Qiyi has just announced a new 9x9 that is factory magnetic, primary, with stickerless caps, likely to compete with Diansheng. So this series may one day be overhauled. 4. Yuxin (+) Has the second fastest release schedule, covering every cube from 12x12 to 16x16 (-) the pieces are significantly more squared off and get stuck more easily than other brands, even for the slightest misalignments. I occasionally had to turn faces 270 degrees because they won't go 90 degrees in the other direction (-) significantly slower than the Meilong series and takes more effort to turn mixed (+) and (-) the super huge outer fillet makes the cube feel smaller, but also makes the layers harder to grab or flick 8x8-11x11 are still the old Huanglong series, and turn better than most cubes that follow new generation sizing. However, they are huge in size due to being sized according to old generation big cubes. They have been since re-branded into Little Magics and re-made in lower quality plastic. 5. Shenshou (Sengso) (+) Their released schedule is far ahead of the pack, currently have everything from 8x8-19x19, except 18x18 (-) tied with Yuxin for being the slowest and taking the most force to turn (-) (-) (-) (-) pillowed Recommendation: 1. Just get Diansheng 2. If you cant wait and Diansheng hasn't made it yet, get Yuxin 3. If you cant wait and Yuxin hasn't made it yet. get Shengshou 4. For very specific cubes that only one brand has, get that one (ie the only example I can name here is the Moyu 21x21)

@laiscube3 ай бұрын
Yuxin already made all the cubes from 12x12 to 16x16 (yes cubic 16x16 exists now, no more need for the pillowed Shengshou one) While (likely) rumor has it that the Meilong designer has moved to Diansheng, and he re-made all his designs but made them factory magnetic (which is why the mechanisms are very similar). The new Diansheng series covers everything from 8x8 to 15x15, except 14x14 which is not released yet, but it's planned and there are actual photos of the prototypes.

Great video, what are the specifications of the weakest magnets you used to replace in your triple track?
@laiscube3 ай бұрын
N40 3x1 The original magnets were 3mm diameter 2mm height, and the magnet slots were fitting almost exactly, so the replacement magnets need the same diameter (to fit in) and a shorter height (to be weaker), and for added security I decided not to rely on friction like the original magnets did, so I superglued the smaller magnets into the magnet slots.

Check out my community post for a close-up look at the magnet layout diagrams and magnet repulsion graphs: kzbin.infoUgkx5Fbko-2zcowewvgW3WzuUt_P9KLPbXsy Note that the cube depicted in the diagrams isn't exactly the Aosu v7, and it is in fact the example cube from my "How to design a 4x4 Rubik's cube" series. The diagrams exist mainly to accurately portray the magnet layouts, while the accuracy of the actual mechanism is not the main focus, and it was symmetrically neater to trace over a cube that I already have a 3d model of.
