BuWizz motor VS LEGO RC Buggy motor

[@gperm3710]

Real shame that Lego themselves never released an updated buggy motor, but I'm so glad that buwizz has one

[@Wichelroede]

You mean a Powered Up version of it? I mean…, you could just use a Buggy-Motor with an extension cable for the “same” results as the BuWizz motor. …or is it the current value of the Buggy-Motor that bothers you?

[@gperm3710]

@@Wichelroede I was born in 2004, which makes most motors older than me, but the motors themselves look really cool and have great functions, my concern was that due to age, the motors would lose performance, I don't have any of the motors though

[@liamparkin7585]

@@gperm3710 I was born in 2001 and never had a chance at owning my own buggy motor too. The prices of those motors now is insane so I bought myself 2 buwizz motors and the buwizz 2.0 pack this Christmas and they are great. The motors themselves already outperform any of the PF motors in my collection without any additional gearing required. If you can afford it there is no reason to buy an orignal Lego Buggy motor when these better, cheaper (not including the Buwizz power unit) motors are available

[@soldadoryanbr7776]

The price of the Buggy motor is basicaly a collectors item now

[@Yackhammer75]

BuWizz...everything Lego should have been but never was. I love it, keep it coming.

[@heruhcanedean]

Mine just came in the mail today. Making a build right now with them. Edit: I have a build with them but the 3.0 doesn't work, still nothing

[@heruhcanedean]

I have a 2.0 connected to the servo. I got a 3.0 to power the 2 motors. It came with my motors... I plugged it in to charge and had lights. After unplugging I have nothing, button does nothing and plugging it back in gives no lights. My build has to wait

[@EvanMoon]

It’s always painful when you get what you really want in the mail but there are issues with the software

[@heruhcanedean]

@@EvanMoon I'm hoping the issue is just software and not hardware

[@mahj]

I'm wondering how these stand up to long-term use.

[@rjc0234]

The BuWizz looks more LEGO than the official one. What an amazing price for a custom piece, that's a lot of manufacturing to make something like that, which still has a niche market.

[@legolas7470]

Cant wait for the first mocs with this awesone motor!

New motors look amazing. Can you test them with Buwizz 2.0, when your buwizz 3.0 remains unavailable please?

[@rockyslay4310]

I received my order for 2x Buwizz buggy motor. The orange protection part was on the inside but now on the outside behind the grill. Looks like water can make a short circuit. I don't like it...

[@lpingpong1782]

I wonder if there's any difference in current draw/protection, as that's what I generally struggle with when building with buggy motors

[@OfficialDjAVE]

There won’t be. That is a bug that the buwizz motor has fixed. The current protection on the buwizz motor kicks in a lot later so you won’t have problem using a buwizz motor on ludicrous mode.

[@basberend]

@@OfficialDjAVE so the buwizz motors are the same as the mouldking / cada / gobricks motors then ?? it seems they also do not have the current protection.

[@OfficialDjAVE]

@@basberend no they are not the same. The cada/mould kings do have a power protection built in but the buwizz motors are also 10-20% faster keep in mind. They have all their specs on the official buwizz website. I ordered mine already I’m still waiting for them to get shipped.

[@racernatorde5318]

Yeah, I am definetly gonna get me two of those. Actually have one of the RC motors, but one is...you know...just half the fun. Gotta destroy all them axles!

[@Mcneds]

Then, you have to get four motors and 2 BuWizzes to have ULTIMATE POWER

[@racernatorde5318]

@@Mcneds Oi. My subconscious is already telling me to get four. But I don't even have a BuWizz or a S-Brick. Stuff is expensive :(

[@aistelaipsyte]

the lego buggy motor doesnt have a protector so its more powerful than every other motor. the protector stops the motor if its hard for the motor to turn, but if you remove the protector from other buggy motors (non-lego buggy motors) they will be more powerful and faster

[@leoslego5965]

I always wanted to have a couple of buggy motors, but thanks to your video I realized that the buwizz motors are better and more then three times cheaper, so now I wanna get a couple of those before they’ll cost 29$)))

[@zoltronr6]

Nice comparison. Disappointed neither are Pug approved.

[@searme]

Few things in life are.

[@davidasdasd4666]

What is the buggy motor good for? What advantages does it have over a regular lego motor?

[@searme]

Only much higher speed and power.

[@davidasdasd4666]

@@searme ah thank you. I dont know a lot about lego rc stuff so I was just wondering

[@dctemy]

I think, they should release a Control + version of this too. I mean BuWizz already embraced the C+ platform with their 3.0 module, so maby in the future this will become an option (PF will slowly get harder and harder to find/buy at affordable prices). Is there any way to convert the PF cable on this buggy motor to a C+ connector?

[@Lucianohlegomocs]

You can always cut the wire off another pu motor and sotter it to a pf motor. But green gecko workshop has an adapter from pf to pu

[@GubstersGarage]

Keep reading these buggy motors breaking axles, do you have a guide of best way to prevent breakage?

[@meisenhu2958]

There's really no ideal ways to avoid that since a standard Lego axle piece is only that much strong. The best way to work around is to get those third party metal axles since they twists less but it would in return worn your gears. Really up to how you feel about replacing which parts later on though most of hobby grade RC cars uses the metal axle and plastic spur gear setup to let the gear worn over time and save the axle.

[@GubstersGarage]

@@meisenhu2958 will adding the new clutch work? Or will that just slip? 🤔

[@meisenhu2958]

@@GubstersGarage I think it would, but still considering how much torque the baggy motor has it might also worn down if you push it too hard

[@Blejzzz]

Make a test of Buwizz motor with Buwizz Control and with SBrick.

[@simskii.]

Since I only have the standart battery boxes and cheap AA batteries, my buggy motor starts to stall when put under any load. Will this newer motor have the same issue? (otherwise I might just have to buy a BuWizz power suply I guess)

[@searme]

It surely will.

Bet it shifts with the BuWizz 3.0. Looking forward to mine arriving. Can we expect further testing in the future?

[@ruzeub71]

Which batteries are compatible with the Buwizz motor? Buwizz 2.0 I suppose... but Buwizz 3.0 and Powered up 88012? Because the price of the Buwizz motor is very affordable, but the price of the Buwi batteries much less so.

[@searme]

Any batteries. It's a regular electric motor.

I feel like I could sell my old RC parts (I still have everything from the 8376 HotFlame) and use the funds to buy the new BuWizz stuff and be very happy.

That depends on the battery alone.

I won't connect a 3S Lipo to any Lego electronics since their discharge rate are too high and can fry most Lego stuff.

some big and very important questions are, can you power 2 of these simultaneous with Accu pack? same power-hungry as the lego buggy motors? (will the buwizz 3 pro handle 2 of these simultaneously? buwizz 2.0 could not power 2 lego buggy motors simultaneous on max load. will it do it with these buwizz motors ?? and are these buwizz motors better then other third party products ???

[@searme]

BuWizz 3.0 is supposed to be able to power two of these simultaneously.

[@basberend]

@@searme can not wait for your indempt info / comparison of the buwizz 2.0 and 3.0 in this case. because the 2.0 has : Max instantaneous current per channel: 6.5 A where the 3.0 has : Max instantaneous current per PF channel: 6 A . any idea how high the Max instantaneous power per PF Chanel is on the 3.0 ?? the 2.0 is Max instantaneous power per channel: 55 W . has the 3.0 higher voltage on the pf ports? are there some kind of restrictions in the 2.0 or something?

While the price seems very nice, buwizz has such a great potential to release a completely new motor style instead of copying the old lego design, perhaps by using hobby-grade 530 motors

[@ZozoleonLego]

Yeah, but with this motor you can build MOCs that used to be powered by buggy motor. And don't be ridiculous about 540, Lego wouldn't survive a racing class 130 motor...

[@Ashmodai]

A buggy motor with Buwizz already ends up with a lot of wear and tear... Lego wouldn't stand those higher forces... Would need metal axles and lift arms.
