Now we just need to see the buwizz motor!
buwizz motor is delayed till June or July.
they're having supply consistency and manufacturing issues. first batch didnt meet spec, then the motor they were using to prototype went out of stock and they had to find another supplier and start from scratch, then chinese lunar new year hit and most factories closed, delaying everything by another month.
so, its going to be a while if it ever does come out.
My last update email on March 17th said they should be finished in May.
@@heruhcanedean yup, and then by the time they receive their completed units and verify them it'll be mid to end of may, and then it'll likely take another month or more to ship the first batch globally since world wide shipping is kinda fucjed right now. that means backers wont get theirs likely until june at earliest (at least outside of the EU)
@@572089 "so, its going to be a while if it ever does come out."
Do you not know what being a backer is? The last package from the EU to the west coast of USA took 2 weeks for me, but "since world wide shipping is kinda fucjed right now."
i have the buwizz motor! it is awesome, a video is on my channel about it
I’m very happy they added PU motor steering calibration in this version. I’m very tired of PF servos breaking on me at this point.
Definitely would love to see some torque tests and of course a new speed record with the BuWizz motor too!
Yes, can't wait to get the BuWizz motors for that :)
For me, by far the most important difference is the two extra control channels. This finally enables me to use a single Buwizz for practically all my build. Before I had to use either two Sbricks or two Buwizzs, which takes up a LOT of space and weight. This is great.
Thanks again Balazs for this very informative first impressions review. I look forward to seeing more content on this awesome product and having some questions answered as you mentioned in the video. Mine is coming in the mail so I look forward to playing with it and maybe even learning some tips from you!
Cool, cant wait to get one! Also nice too see my favorite Lego TH-camr back😀
No more questions left after watching this video. Thorough and very detailed review as always!
Yay, glad to see you back.
Lego needs to pay a billion to these guys and use their stuff as Lego. There's just no comparison.
I'm exited to see the BuWizz app update!
LUDICROUS SPEED... GO!
Wow I was waiting for this review for so long! nice video
The servo settings are brilliant
Yes finally some has got one
Very curious to see some torque tests. If I remember correctly the PU L motor and the PU XL motor basically have the same torque due to limitations of the PU hubs.
I like ur videos so much. Thx for presenting this so sophisticated and shorten the time that I have to wait for my Buwizz 3.0. I would like to see tests of battery stamina of buwizz 3.0. We had 20 cm snow in Saxony in April. Greetings from eastern Germany!
In fact, can consider using a more standardized 3S battery and racing accessories, so as to support better speed and durability
FINALLY !!😁😁😁😁
Also greetings from România .
Nice review. Many thanks. Can you stack the SBrick and PF motor to multiply controlled PF outputs like with BuWizz 2.0? Now I use BuWizz 2.0 with 2 SBricks, so I can control 12 outputs with the only one power source. It would be nice and save a lot of space to mix PU with PF motors with only one battery. For example 4 PU as servos to control pneumatic valves and stack more PF motors. And crème de la crème would be to control all of it with a PS4 controller. Best regards. :)
Really cool Hub, I really like the light. But nothing for me, I use PF and offen need four ports.
Nice Job on the Video, I will receive my video review unit soon from BuWizz too. Looks like it has many nice functions.
Yes it definitely does have, looking forward to see your review
So, compared to the Powered Up Hub, can we say that PU motors have twice the amount of power with Buwizz 3?
Can this or even 2.0 power 2 buggy motors???
Even Buwizz is moving on to powered up.
So would the 3.0 have a longer battery life then the 2.0??
could you please make a video how to power the defender with the new mindstorms robot inventer set?
I love seeing you and you finally did a face reveal, greeting from Romania!
Greetings :) If you scroll back a bit on my channel you could see my (not so exciting) face many times :)
Why nothing about the price? I believe you should mention that.
You can check the price at the BuWizz webpage that I linked
Could you make a comparison between Buwizz 2.0 with PF motors and Buwizz 3.0 with Control+ motors? Especially L and XL motors. Thanks.
Glad I waited so long before buying a BuWizz. As soon as they get a little cheaper and the App gets fixed, I will order one because this will mean no more slow LEGO Apps and BT game controller compatibility.
Does it have analog speed control? Are there multiple positions for the servos?
Can the app be linked with a bluetooth controller? Or do we still need the Brickcontroller2 app for this? I really dislike the use of my phone for driving a RC car. It would be super nice if a bluetooth controller could connect directly to the Buwizz unit (without the use of a phone), but I guess that is too much to ask :-)
There's no controller support at the moment, can be suggested as a feature
This is gonna be my first Buwizz. Are the Technic holes enough? I only see 4 total on the sides...
It was fine for the previous versions
hello please can buwiz 3 be programmed on brickcontrol like buwiz 2?
The measurment units are quite confusing when it gets to lego. It used to be "studs", you are using "modules" and the box says "bricks". Great review, as always. Thanks neighbour. ;-)
Yeah, well I always used studs but it's actually not appropriate for Technic pieces. Modules is the designer jargon so I tried to be fancy :D
buwizz Powered Up ports are 12v, W(whatts) = A(amps) x V(voltage) so 2A x 12V = 24w
WAIT, THEY MAKE THEM SLOVENIA. BRO, I LIVE5ERE
they need to add a blinking mode for the lights so they could be used as police lights
Can you do a video on how to motorise the Dodge Technic Set using Control+ motors and battery (the motors and battery which comes with the Top Gear Set).
Seeing that Power Functions has now been retired.
Would be a massive help
Why dont you motorise it yourself?
@@shortcoolmovies9535 because I'm a totally new to this motors and hubs
I wonder how this is going to work on the PU trains, could have 2 motors, lights and sound all working, but how much juice does it have.
this is coool
I love your videos
and Been waiting for this review for a long time now..
but this video seems rush and under your standards.
I'm grateful you made this content available ASAP, but .. IDK, (did you try to swap the lights and the PF motor, and put the brick into the car better). anyway.
Thanks!
Waiting for your other more in depth videos about the BW3P.
As I mentioned in the video the app is still in beta and firmware update is also expected, there was no point to go into all the details yet. The video was already 10+ minutes long with the initial details, more will follow.
do you think you could do a motor power test with the different buwizz units using agrofs buggy + buggy motors?
I don't have that one assembled, but I'll see what I can do for buggy motors
Nice product to take advantages of new power up and pf we like. It could be better if on new firmware releases can be programmed esally in phyton like spike prime, to be used in education projects if also be posible to add wedo and powerup sensors aiming primary grades. That is integrating mobile user interace or other Bluetooth gamepad, children's code in between, these sensors and the motors.
awesome. is it possible programming by accelerometer? for example if value of axel X become some value then turn on some motor or call some other action by changing accelerometer value?
Programming abilities are planned but not available yet in this version I tested so I don't know what will be available
I had buwizz 2.0 but it once dived into water and died. I have sbrick now, should i buy buwizz and which one? I mostly build with lego pf and not c+. Great video. In Poland there is also snowing right now
If you build with PF only then BuWizz 2.0 is perfectly fine I think.
the main advantage of BuWizz over S-Brick is the extra power and the rechargeability. If you use PF only / mostly, I would get the BuWizz 2.0 . No point getting the newer unit if you dont use C+. (I think, anyway!)
Can it easily power lighting kits as well as motors? The LED dot light kits I've bought come with their own battery boxes and have no remote control. The headlights should come on with the engine power!
Most of the light kits you can buy are not modular so they are not designed to be powered and controlled by LEGO power sources. You can buy Powered Up LED lights (88005), but that's only one pair per port so it's not a full kit.
I'm still a bigger fan of the 2.0 with the speed choices
Hi :) just a little curious… Can you run 2 or more motors off the Buwizz brick that spin in sync with one another? Like not having to adjust them all with their own individual sliders on the app screen? Like can you control multiple motors with just one slider?
sure
One Question, can you stack PF lights on one port? can you test it in future videos?
Sure you can, I will show it in the next video
Hey, I just got mine today and I stumbled over something that upset me quite abit. I was in the assumption you could program with the BuWizz app, but I just can't find any option for that? All I can chose between is either the controls or two "logic modules", center steer and tracked steer. Do you know if BuWizz ever gonna add blocky programming like in the SBrick and LEGO app?
As far as I know the team is planning to add coding abilities to the app but it's not there yet. I suggest to reach out to them directly and ask about their timelines.
@@RacingBrick I just got an answer from BuWizz support and they told me that they want to keep the app simple, but gonna publish the communication protocols for the community to create an app that is capable of programming. :I
I hope SBrick is gonna take advantage of this.... Tho I doubt LEGO would.
how are you controlling the vehicle without the cell with the app in your hands? are you using a controller? how did you hook it up??
Where did you see that in this video?
Love your accent
Is pu l motor connected to buwizz 3.0 like a servomotor fully proportional?
yes
@@RacingBrick thanks
Love the way you've filmed this video, hope your health's alright as well too, bro 😊... snow in April, climate change after all 🙏🏼
Thanks, I'm fine and getting better :) Snow is not very unusual in April around here, but we had like 20 degrees the days before so it was kind of unexpected :D
@@RacingBrick glad to know that you're recovering and getting better by the day bro 🙏🏼🤗👍🏼...yeah, the weather's pretty weird at times, we've got summer here, but then on a day we'll have rain all of a sudden, weather wasn't like this when we were younger and so we as people are trying to live and adapt our lives because of climate change 🙏🏼😟
Power Functions actual motors are still far, far cheaper than the Power Up parts. I hope the Buwizz 2.0 still gets firmware updates.
I am from slovenia
Can you conpare the off-road ability with the 42099?
I will
Is this the first buwizz 3.0 review not made by buwizz company?
I think so :)
Thanks for review now i know how powerfull it is
When are you going to test Pybricks?
no
hi, I have the exact same Lego technic car, is the BuWizz 3.0 Pro very difficult to install?
There are tutorials online, check out the BuWizz channel
Volna egy kérdésem: hozzá lehet kötni az egyik pf csatlakozóhoz egy sbricket például meg más ilyesmit, vagy csak mototokat? Mert ha igen akkor ez hatalmas lesz!
Igen, SBrick is működik róla, úgy is hogy csak be van kapcsolva és nincs vezérelve az a PF kimenet
WAIT buwizz is from Slovenia 🤣 im from Croatia which is right next to Slovenia lol so i wont Wait long for it to arrive
can you use a power functions (like M or L motor) as a servo with the 2.0?
No
the motors don't have a rotation sensor.
Will it be able to use the boost light sensor?
It's on the promised feature list
Can it use any Power Functions motor as a servo motor?
No
i suppose the normal pf motor has no reference , having only two wires
Does it work with brick controller 2 app?
Not yet
Is the PU motor servo functionality proportional?
Yes
@@RacingBrick Brilliant! Finally an alternative to the overpriced PF servos!!
would like to know the discount code so i can afford to buy one
They have a 20% Cyber Monday sale going on - buwizz.com/?ref=5
is this a test unit?
It is practically production hardware, but the firmware and the app is not final
According to the price of Buwizz3 not a big supprise
What! How! Why didn't I get it. I ordered it in january
The team is still working on the final polishing of the app, I am doing some beta testing for them and had the opportunity to give you a sneak peek.
Can you use sensors with it?
It is a planned feature but not available yet in this version of the app
how do you installed new version of the app? i tried beta testing but it still remains the same
The BuWizz team provided me access, it is not a public beta
@@RacingBrick ok thanks
I wish I could get it but it is way too expensive for me. And I will probably have to pay high shipping fees because I live outside of Europe :(
would like to know the discount code
@@simyob what discount code?
How do you get the app,and does it work on Lego technic battery box?
Why cant they make it 5 units wide - it's a pain in the arse building with it.
You can easily add spacers, but others might prefer the current width.
@@RacingBrick but why when Lego is all odd numbers?
LEGO Technic nowadays uses odd numbers, but neither City or other themes in general uses that. I guess BuWizz decided to fit their product in the smallest form factor possible and that is it, most of us appreciate that.
@@RacingBrick Ive never seen anyone talking about Buwizz outside of Technic. I'm sure it has a use in trains, but other than that I cant see much use for it outside of Technic.
Is that it house ??
Your***
Is this thing compatible with the brickcontroller2 app?
Sort of compatible, but the steering calibration has some issues
@@racingbrickshorts i think for this Problem i can just use a normal power functions servo motor
@@Someone-jf6sr true, that's a possible solution
@@RacingBrick and can i also make a motor to a stepper motor without any issues?
@@Someone-jf6sr I'm not sure if BC2 supports currently this functionality with BuWizz3 and the Powered Up motors. I suggest to check the BC2 topic on Eurobricks and maybe ask the developer there.
BuWizz 2.0 is better than the previous ones. 3.0 has different functionality, so you can't say that 3.0 is better than 2.0. They differ in functionality.
EUR 200,- at the time of writing... I thought Lego was expensive!
Will you be motorizing the ecto 1?
Don't think so, I'll need to finish my review about it first
Price?

Wey alchile nada te cuesta poner los subtítulos en español ya lo vi 15 veces el puto video y no le entiendo
It costs me nothing, except that I don't speak Spanish. You can turn on the translations, there are even instructions at the beginning how to do that.
lol i clicked it on 999 views
150 DOLLARS!! liM pooR
Second!
nice!
first.
congratulations!
Is it only me or have lego become worse and worse for every year?
Look at the train. 12V system had unrivaled functionality.... granted the 9V system had better rail and motors. Also the 9V system had lego system integration, somthing lackning now. Also prior to the all technic system, öego technic was way faster to build, and more enjojeble. 9V motors was also superior.
PF pretty much destroyed lego train, its not that kid friendly any more, granted the introduktion of servos and sensors is nice.
For the new system, the over relinenze of BT kind of bugs me... I buy lego for the kids to get away from the tablet, not use it more.
