My LEGO flies when I throw it at my brother

[@dogswhistlesharam9029]

Hi, I actually work for Lego as a Lego tech designer, my job is to animate Lego for theme parks and also I am a CAA qualified drone pilot . Tip for the day, best not use CA glue, we use Liquid MEK to glue Lego together, it then sets like concrete and doesn’t go white like CA does. Looking forward to your next Lego build?

[@FliteTest]

That’s awesome! Thanks for the tip friend! ;) lego for the win! ;)

[@RCinginSC]

If by MEK , you mean methyl ethyl ketone, then I will stick with CA. Without listing all the issues with mek , it's kind of nasty stuff, and certainly nothing you want children around. Where I work banned it from being used several years ago due to it's health risk. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

[@mikeupton5406]

Lego and Flite Test. This needs to be done.

[@Fishdogfish]

@@RCinginSC MEK gave me the worst headache ever when working with fiberglass. Felt like my head was exploding.

[@rasheedgregory3459]

Hey...if you work for lego you should pitch the idea of combining lego and rc drones for the older lego fans. As a child growing up i used to take the motor out of a walkman and rig it to my lego's to make a helicopter with a spinning main rotor. To combine a childhood toy and a hobby im just starting to get into would be awsome. Lego really should make this a thing.

My son got this kit on Christmas day. Once we had finished building it, the first thing I said to him was. "We could make this fly", glad to see I wasn't alone in thinking this.

@@hunterallen7196 not hard at all. I have a profile fan jet rc version made out of depron foam.

[@hunterallen7196]

Thomas Haley me and you need to make one then lol

[@dustinhanlin]

So gratifying. I didn't doubt you'd be able to get it to fly. I was only concerned it wouldn't look anything like the original kit (like the box fan drone) or that it wouldn't really perform. Like, technically it flies but not really well. So glad to see those concerns were unfounded. You guys nailed it!

[@jb6027]

This video is cool beyond words! Please show more of this contraption!!!

[@j.q.higgins2245]

Simply amazing how much attention you gave to keeping the modifications to a minimum and to preserving the kit's LEGOishness. (Even more so, since your methods usually tend to be a bit on the straightforward side... 😜) Great job, guys, and thank you for sharing!

[@OH8STN]

Okay guys this just went over the top. I think this build is my favorite or at least tied with the A-10 and flying tank. Outstanding video and absolutely inspirational. Thanks for sharing, this was great!

[@derMusicSlasher]

This is so awesome! Honestly who didn't want to see their legos fly at some point in their life! So cool! The next step would be to build a Lego plane, maybe out of Lego Technic pieces and with laminated style wings but instead of the laminating material you use foam board! I'd love to see that ;)

[@colt4547]

That was great. To myself personally, absolutely a dream come true. Too cool give him a raise.

[@ethanrichardson5168]

I remember thinking if that thing were real it could never fly. Alex just proved me wrong!

[@hooptydoo417]

Didn’t Peter Sripol make a plane out of LEGO least year? That’s ok. This one looked cooler. Although I would have liked to see the crash site.

[@mcdoctorglock]

Yes, we need areal footage of the carnage! I wonder if he recovered all the pieces for a full NTSB reconstruction?

[@scientificbhaiya9336]

Make a fastest racing quad with Lego buggati Chiron. 😎

[@tananam9782]

Sripol made a fixed wing plane, and tried only to use the friction fit of the Lego blocks to hold it together. Both conditions posed very different challenges than what were found with this quad copter design. Not least: without a great deal of additional weight, It's difficult to imagine making an airfoil with Lego blocks. Even so, that airfoil would be hopelessly inefficient. With only Newtonian physics available, lifting capacity is greatly reduced. It would be roughly analogous to insisting that this quad be lifted with the model propellers supplied with the kit, rather than retro-fitting a set of Gremlin props. I doubt very much it would have flown without that part swap.

[@Scott-fb9ue]

I just wanted to say how much I love this channel. Everyone's always so happy and the channel is very motivational. Super interesting too!

[@CaseyFinSF]

Kudos for the cool bros for flying high on the legos! Way to go to fly that Lego! Cool Bros Flyin' Legos !

[@seanfoster671]

Brings a whole new dynamic to Lego play. Lego City fully RC would be awesome. I personally would glue most of it together with the exception of any parts that need to come off for electronic access.

You know you've grown up right when you immediately search for ways to anchor the Lego motor mount without glue and SUCCEED! The trick is to use side-mounting pieces next to each other so you can effectively created a wrap-around structure.
