Building and Testing a Lego-powered Submarine
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ส.ค. 2024
- Making a radio-controlled submarine with Lego and other materials.
At the end I test it in a lake. Enjoy!
The submarine specs:
Length: 22 cm (8.7 in)
Displacement: 1880 grams (66 oz)
Speed: 0.2 knots (10 cm/s)
Operating depth: 3 m (10 ft) - ballast tank will fail after that
Hull: 1.5 liter lemonade pitcher (Orthex)
Forward: Lego m-motor runs two 9-length propellers (2952)
Turn: Lego m-motor runs a geared-up (0.67:1) small 3-blade propeller (6041)
Ballast tank: Lego m-motor runs a Lego linear actuator connected to a 60 ml syringe (Eotia marinade injector). Active range 20 ml
Radio control: 27 MHz controller dissembled from a toy submarine (Zantec Mini RC U Boot). L298 H-bridge to drive motors
Power supply: 9V Lego battery box for the motors, 3.7V battery for the radio controller
The yellow toy submarine at 6:00 is this one: www.amazon.de/Zantec-Schiff-F...

Seriously, thank you for not putting obnoxious music over this video. The sounds of your work are enough. Great project.
Ikr? I hate it when there is annoying music at the background that goes again and again. Just kills the spirit.

@@immasnarl292 If there is no music and you play it yourself you still hear the sounds of the video, if you mute the video if there is music playing in the background, you can't hear the music and neither the video sounds. Does that make sense?
I love your methodical approach to your projects. There's something super satisfying about it. "Oh the first thing didn't work? How about this? No? Then this?... Yay!"
its called trial and error. Its very rare for something to work perfect the first time unless the calculations are very thought out.

I like that instead of taking that small plastic submarine and just transferring all the internals to a Lego shell, he actually built a fully functional one out of a jug. He takes pride in his work, and it's cool.
It's a shame the ballast syringe couldn't overcome the pressure difference at the lake bottom. I hope you revisit this project. It was really cool
Yeah those syringes can be hard to push even at STP
Yeah, I'm wondering if bigger holes or more engines/more (but smaller) syringes would help.
@@MrGlennJohnsen smaller piston, increased stroke. trouble is the lego actuator bottomed out so you'd need to double it up or so. possibly another motor and actuator on the other side of the syringe like you said would help.
Probably should have used normal gears and a toothed bar
At least make the plunger straight.
This taught me more about how submarines work than any trip to the museum, while being more enjoyable.

@@drizztdourden6687 *underWATER rated comment
Someone correct me if im wrong but wouldnt larger pistons require more force to push ? In theory multiple smaller pistons would be more effective at depth as the motor will need to push less water per piston meaning less resistance
@@Migguls611 True, but that means the ballast can fill up with more water, thus able to dive deeper

that quote was my exact thought when he pulled out the other submarine, although I can't blame him not wanting to make his own remote control system for this project. The syringe ballast system is so cool that I'm not even mad though
It’s a simple remote control chip so it doesn’t bother me much.
They’re really easy to make if you know how, so it’s not that big a deal to me.
watch the new vid some redemption for this
*LEGO plural
Honestly, something about building things so compactly looks pretty cool, especially if you remove the outer casing so you can see the inside
So interesting to see the development stages. I used to love working this kind of (much simpler) stuff out with lego as a kid. I need to get back into it. Thanks for the inspiration.

12:40 Outside water pressure is to large for engine to pump out off the balast water, so its stalled.

Yeah, also a real life sub would have stores compressed air and hydroplanes to help with depth changes. Just pumping out water is only one part of the equation.
was searching for exactly this
I totally knew that
Yeah, but he realized as well, hence he pulled it up and then tried pushing out again

Wax paper*
@@c_holding8564 whoever gets more likes is correct.
@@viporal7898 Agreed. Wax paper isn't heat resistant. Parchment paper is.
Wax would burn against the soldering iron and wax could interfere with the way the hot glue behaves.
Ok, just googled it haha- 'While parchment paper can do anything wax paper can, it's more expensive. The maindifference between papers is their respective coatings. Parchment paper is coated with silicone to give it a nonstick, heat-resistant surface, and waxed paper is coated with asoybean or paraffin wax.'

What do the toy submarines use for ballast, I wonder?
@@KOTYAR0 *M A G I C*
@@KOTYAR0 It looked like there was a propeller in the bottom so I guess it had neutral buoyancy and used water flow to move vertically.
But I'm not an expert on toy submarines.
lol
@@AnttiBrax First i used to think the same. But. Here 6:15. I think that clear plastic thing somehow reacts to water and change buoyancy. It's location just on the top of toy.
I like the lack of music. Gives this a sense of genuine interest and authenticity.
Yeah but the water in the background is kind of like music on its own
The sound of nature is music to some, too
Most added music on TH-cam videos is unnecessary, usually very annoying, and quite likely of a genre that makes me wonder "what the fuck?"

You could put an explosive inside to create a mini controllable torpedo
Making a remote-controlled submarine parts list:
-Some Lego
-A pitcher
-one remote-controlled submarine
I mean, his sub is bigger, transparent, and can fit cameras inside. Worth it imo.
I mean, submarine parts only used for controls. Lego controlling assembly won't fit, it's bulky as hell.
You could make your own RC controls without needing another sub. I expect he couldn't be bothered to, or didn't have the time/skills to do so
@@jasper2624 It's a recursive submarine
Actually, putting a remote controlled submarine inside another submarine sounds pretty awesome to me

Hands down. This man would be the coolest dad ever
I'd love to see a second attempt, maybe with a bit more oomph and a some headlights to see better underwater with.

I have to say I've always loved this channel it's so satisfying and quiet
"Quiet". Try watching at full volume.
It’s such a pleasant change to not have someone yelling at you excitedly for the whole video.
No bleeding ears here.
I like hearing the bricks snap together
It’s the brick version of primitive technology
I am about to be 40. I never understood how a submarine can increase and decrease it's buoyancy till now. Thank you. That made so much sense. Fill the volume with water, note the weight. Make your system wee bit lighter so it floats, suck in water to sink. Push it back out of the volume to rise back up.

Lego POWERED submarine. Not the whole submarine made of legos....
He only took the radio controller parts from the submarine though. Lego probably manufactures similar parts too but maybe they were not so easily available or more expensive?
Lego sells Rc-Parts aswell, however they're shit and overpriced. I dont think it matters if the rc-module has a "lego" on it, it has the same functionality. There's nothing special going on with the parts from the toy submarine.

this is incredibly awesome and at the same time I can't forgive you for not putting a mini figure in a chair on that perfect 2x2 red spot in the middle
12:18 is the perfect example of "If it moves and it shouldn't, use duct tape"
That wasnt the issue. The problem was at that depth there was too much external pressure so the syringe couldn't eject water
@@ari90i I know that, the duct tape is helping it stay in place. it's literally held down with duct-tape, otherwise it would've moved. I know the problem was the pressure was too high at the bottom of the lake, the single piston couldn't handle that, so that's why a 2nd one was needed. Guess what? to keep this rig in place, I'll say it again, duct-tape was used.
@@thanosattorneyatlaw4062 Im not sure, and im no physics man, but how would a second piston helped/worked in that case?
Kamilohbk A second piston is needed to help empty the ballast syringe of water while at a depth where the pressure of the surrounding water is too much for a single piston to force the ballast syringe empty. As Thanos said, duck tape is needed to help secure this second piston to the ballast syringe.
