Thanks for Reviewing my Alternative LEGO PF Motors and Parts. The WIFI Remote Control works excellent outdoors, I also sell the WIFI (Speed Controller) Remote for Variable Speed. The XL Motor has recently been replaced with a new Version, It now has same Torque and Colors as the Lego XL. Great job on the Review Video, looking forward to your future tests.

I’m looking into buying your products, and I had a few questions: 1. Are the receivers in the rc combo and rc speed control combo different? 2. Could I buy the wifi combo and then get additional wifi receivers? 3. Are any of the receivers compatible with standard official lego power functions remotes? Thanks!

PF "lives" again! I think that PF getting 2.4gh tech is great, in the R/C world we have been using it for years and years, because it really is the best tech for R/C (at least of 2021). IR is outdated, and non-existent outdoors! For example, on my RC (Wltoys 144001 with some upgrades), I use the super popular and well priced (~$35-40) DumboRC radio and receiver, it's maximum range is around 1500 feet, I believe, which is farther than I can see my buggy!

Been thinking about buying these for awhile. PERFECT timjng

I have many of these alternative motors and recievers and they are pretty good... The metal joints are good aswell... another interesting power function alternative is cada as they are producing brushless motors and the 2.4ghz recievers are similar to the buwizz ones

having the option is wonderful, I didnt know lego fully discontinued PF motors until now, I see no problems with 3rd party motors as long as they work,

Thanks for sharing this. I really like the other song, but the only downside is that it is licensed, so I need to go through a registration process every time I use it in a video, and there's a high chance KZread flags it for a copyright claim, then I need to do the dispute process every time. It's pretty annoying, so I was looking for another song that comes from the YT audio library. I'll keep looking for something that's a better match or has no Content ID :)

Blue Brix or Cada Motors you can get too

I got started in technic recently so I never had the opportunity to get a Servo motor, nor do I have the money to dish out $70+ to get even a used one. So I'm very interested in these compatible ones.

Great clip! Mould king has got a 2.4GHz proportional controller and battery box. I am very satisfied with this solution 😊

Mould King had a proportional servo at one point, but right now it isnt used I think for now, due to some issues they came into with batteries and how they can be damaged by the servo

Thanks!

I am interested in buying the servo motor, but I was questioning myself if this motor can handle the higher output power of the Buwizz without breaking down?

It's a shame there's still no fully compatible servo that I can find - I'm currently building your 42069 RC mod and after watching loads of comparison videos ended up going with the 'Mould King' motors. So far no issues with them and the dark grey / clear smoked colourscheme looks nice. Companies have been making compatible parts for cars for many decades, this is really no different.

Wha 42069 is this a joke lol

I bought compatables off ali express😬😬. But... i have owned them for months now and they work perfectly and like new ever since. 1 servo was like $5 and 1 xl motor was like $5

Wonder if they ship to UK

I use them all. There is an company called mould king. That sells better motors. There is an black l motor that goes 1200. Rpm it’s real!

I have no problem with motors, hubs, and even technic parts bought on places like aliexpress. Why should Lego enjoy a monopoly for so long? Yes, I know there are some clone sets that are essentially copies of active products. That isn't right. All my pneumatic parts are non-Lego. Of course, I prefer Lego but have tons of non-Lego as well. The cost of Lego is too high. The clone remotes tend to be RF, which has some advantages. They also offer BT and hubs with rechargeable Lithium. I haven't found any IR clones yet, although I'm sure they are out there. I like IR because it is easier to interface with microcontrollers.

We all Agree the Power funtions must return or a better motor type in the future

I was wondering if someone review those motors😅😍

I tho gut PU was cool but I never got any bc there so expensive I found some cheep motors and hubs on bricklink but already was invested in PF wich I prefer. But then all of my PF motors started malfunctioning and I gave up on motorized builds for a bit but I may buy a few of these to continue with motorized builds

Word of advice do not buy motors from green gecko, I bout a buggy motor off him and it died in two months

Лего нужно снижать цены, у них тоже есть брак, опечатки в инструкции, и они все моторы изготавливают в Китае, так почему не купить напрямую в Китае?. Я купил Форд раптор за 20 долларов, он очень хороший, моторы по 3-5 долларов, они уже год работают
