90º U-joint Drive Axle Tutorial

[@Cherno_N]

I'm Russian, and I notice once again that most of the useful information stored in English. I can only praise the author, it’s wonderful!

Hello Dynamation, i’d like to see you build the smallest piston engine you can. My best is 3x3x1 2 piston engine. I used blueprint editing and it works on timers but it can even switch directions

[@Felip3Prado]

I really needed a tutorial like this, I really like the game but not knowing the mechanics makes me rack my brains. Thanks

[@outandabout259]

do I remember you just joining scrap mechanic technical community? If so, I'll subscribe because I want to help spread real knowledge about mechanical stuff!

[@_Dynamation_]

yes, i just joined the community. Thanks!

i understood the greatest mechanic that ever lived reference

[@ShawnF6FHellcat]

How it works is so simple, yet it still makes me go "WTF is this?!" every time I see it.

[@Persephoneeeeeee]

Wonderful tutorial. More, please!

Чувак, ты офигенно хорош, теперь я хочу применить это, хорошая работа!

[@Pale_Kingg]

Nice one! Keep it up 👍

I like it's simplicity, though I want to do some experiments and test the max speed and torque it can handle, before trying to make my own and beat it. I'll update you if I find anything stronger, I look forward to experimenting. usually 90 degree pipe joints are pretty weak, since they just clip right through. but with that it's going to take enough force to make the bearings stretch.

[@-aid4084]

alright, so I spent like the whole time experimenting with testing gears and u-joints, I found out that this particular set up will fail at 2500 torque, and by that I mean the mechanism collapses in on itself. I built a slightly larger one(by a block each axis) so that I could get the missing bearing in place for the u-joint, and then it wouldn't rotate so I needed an extra four bearings on the center part that rotates, and that allowed it to pull all the way to 6000, where it once again failed. I then just tried using 8 tooth gears, and they produced the most amount of load, probably close to ten times as much. that surprised me, I guess the bearings are the limitation here. I also tried adding four bearings to the center part of your one and it made it worse, so I wonder if there's a way to get mine to rotate without those center bearings, because I do think they were sapping away some torque. I'm gonna go to bed now.

a little salem tech refrence in there

[@raffizmc]

Very good, there isn't much content in this game, but I would like more...

[@KurNorock]

You can't run this very fast without it flipping the entire creation all over the place.

[@_Dynamation_]

you need to balance the joint to go fast, i have it on one of my cars and i can go as fast as the engine allows me

[@KurNorock]

@_Dynamation_ yeah i already tried that. Didn't work.

[@raffizmc]

Muito bom, não tem muito conteudo desse game, mas gostaria de mais...

[@airpex7970]

how is ur clutch workin?

[@Deniz69567]

Isn't this gonna deteriorate in survival? In my perspective, survival is a mix of simple 8 and advanced physics and this 90 u-joint adds more joints, it's definitely going to cause quite some trouble, lol

[@_Dynamation_]

well yes, but i really hated that the pipes would phase through each other so i came up with the is amalgamation lol. it’s not the best, but it could be better

[@diam_bai]

please, can you make a tutorial of piston engine at the end of the video???

[@_Dynamation_]

already have

[@SageBlueMusic]

Your keyboard sounds like lego lol

[@Romanian_Floppa]

so i tried it in survival and it wase sliping

[@_Dynamation_]

i just realized that survival runs on simple 8 physics, idk why but it breaks the whole joint. sorry

"no glitches involved" . . . uses a glitch to allow parts to pass through each other.
