    I was in love with the 9398 back then and I'm happy my parents saw that. That was one of the best gifts I ever got. One suspension piece is broken, but the spring wasn't, which made the problem able to solve. Awesome set, awesome look.

    The geometry on the 9398 is simply better. More clearance, seems like more flex, geared better, better steering. All it needs is set of BuWizz aftermarket motors and it’ll be the best off-roader by a long shot.
    The chassis is already good, it just needs more power/torque.

      The other thing one could try is flipping the gears on the motor for more torque a s less speed and see if that makes a difference.

      If you swap the gears, motors never stall, the problem is that lego choose a fast gear ratio and this crawler has really no torque.

    Killer video. Thanks a lot, Paul.
    I don't own either the 42099 or the 9398, but I do have the 41999 limited-edition version of the latter. Only ever got it for the dark blue parts and the license plate, never actually built it. Still MISB right behind me. But after watching this I'm quite excited to finally get building.
    I do remember all the talk back in the day how it was slow but tenacious. Would plough on and on and on. Nice to see it confirmed here. It's been six years and it still pulls more than its weight, both figuratively and literally. Way to go.

    @R0Sch88 5 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Thanks for the comparison. I fully agree to your conclusion, 9398 was not an ideal crawler but still better than this new Control+ thingy.
    I just built 42099 up today and tested it inside the house. I am disappointed. Few piece count, too much backlash in the steering so it cannot even go straight forwards and backwards, not enough power (2x XL motors geared up so they have less torque than 2x L motors), the bright light orange parts do not fit to any other technic set and once the simple challenges are completed there is no point in playing with the set any more.

    @elonwhite6628 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The effective Bluetooth range will actually vary, depending on what device you are using and the age of the device, where is for the infrared remote. The version one came with the Sun, maybe in the poorest range, but if you get a newer or even an aftermarket knockoff version remote, you’ll find they actually increase the range quite a lot, depending on both the remote and the receiver. When I first got the Lego set for the control, plus Rockcrawler I had a cheap smart phone had very poor Bluetooth. The range was maybe 3 feet before Bluetooth or just shut off but with my current phone and I’ve got an iPhone 13 Bluetooth range is way more than 40 m, also testing their pulling strength by getting both models to pull one and offer is actually an unfair test on the control plus, the control plus motors are designed so that once a certain level of torque is applied on the motor as to actually stop it from losing. It will actually cut the power to the motor to stop it burning out. Where as the order version had no such system

    I think the 9398 could be a much better off roader with a SBrick/BuWizz, (mabye better suspension) and other tires.

      No, the 42099 is clearly a better crawler., but you need to switch some gears. It will be less fast but more powerful

  • @TheLightLOD
    @TheLightLOD 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    In your review of the 42099 you stated that there were gears in the drive system that reduced the torque, which allows the 42099 be as fast as it is. Have you tried changing those gears? For example would a 3:1 reduction be enough to allow the 42099 to successfully get to the top of the slope test with the plank?
    I'm somewhat tempted to get the 42099, but the power shutdown of the engines under stress is putting me off since i'd want to use the parts to either build a self designed 4x4 vehicle or a tank from it. And i like my builds to at least be somewhat capable of going off-road, so just checking if i'd be better off with just getting some PF XL motors

      they should have made a PF compatible radio module and a proportional radio control system, that would have solved many problems

      There is a simple gear ratio change by Australian Lego Fan (no extra parts needed) to give the 42099 more torque. He even does a comparison and does the gear change in between and with the mod the 42099 smokes the 9398. 9398 still has slightly better suspension and steering tho

    I guess, if you changed the transmission in 42099 to more of a crawl, the performance test may be switched its favor. As you know, there is always a trade-off between speed and torque.
