Impossible CLIMB - Experimental Lego Vehicles

In this video, I will show you how to make a Lego vehicle that can climb off-road slopes. I will start by building a simple vehicle and then test it on a 20° slope. I will then make modifications to the vehicle to improve its climbing ability, such as adding better tires, lowering the center of gravity, and lengthening the wheelbase. I will continue to test the vehicle on steeper and steeper slopes until I reach the limit of its climbing ability.

06:11 Track-N-Rolla

    • yeah actual tracked vehicles have a roller in the middle to keep the track straight, i think that would help in this test to keep the weight evenly distributed

  • I feel like a longer version of Track-and-rola would do better, especially with road wheels to keep the track flat with the ground. You could clearly see the track in the current design not properly aplying presure in to the ground.

    • Track and rolla is actually digging through all "terrain" and reaches and grips on to the material underneath, while all other cars grip is based purely on the artificial terrain, it is not particulary fair tbh.

  • Please try this! I think a vehicle with almost comically long tracks will actually perform very well. The biggest obsticle is either that the wheels simply dig in the "dirt" instead of making the vehicle move forward OR it tips over. I think really really long tracks will solve both problems, since with tracks that are say 3-4 times as long as the vehicle itself it gets a LOT of surface area, which counteracts the digging that wheels tend to do, and because of the length and center of mass it wont really tip over.

  • Several of those designs took advantage of the retaining batons under the surface of the cork chips, therefore their climbing abilities are invalid because they took advantage of tractive assistance the other designs didn't use.

  • on the tracked machine, the only way to make it work as intended is to attach a series of rollers to the bottom of the frame, maybe your typical tire to stretch out the track to make it flat, without this, there wont be any weight dispersion and your tracks wont have any flotation, in short, think of a tank, or a bulldozer. hope this helps

    @RyanWithAviators@RyanWithAviators4 ай бұрын
  • Hmm, a tracked verhicle is ment to have as low of a ground pressure as possible to not sink in. Yours is lacking road wheels an proper tension and the middle part of the track is not contributing for support or grip. You can clearly see the two wheels dig into the corc 😊
