Balls should roll into bucket but they don’t initially, only second or even more round they end up in bucket.
Any ideas?
I already put some additional weight on the elevator.

I also have the impression that the speed is now slower because I integrated with the Link set.
The motor does not seems powerful enough.
And the belts are under quite some tension, pulling the axis sideways, causing friction.
I feel like they don’t fit together properly for the ball to roll through. Please check again.
I hope that @CustomerService would be able to help you with this. I know there are a few people here that was having trouble getting it to work when they installed the link set.
Thanks,
do you mean the order of the vertical plates?
I doubled checked those when building and crossed checked against working examples on youtube videos like:
This looks the same.
Any details on what do you think does not fit properly?
I didn’t see it directly, so I’m not sure. You have a tutorial video; try comparing it. I think there was a misalignment, which is why the ball didn’t go in.
Just wondering if this one worked properly on its own…BEFORE attaching the link?
Not perfect, but better.
I suspect the difference in speed is why.
Sorry to hear that you are having problems. I have done the Spaceport and the Marble Night city and both work perfectly. After seeing so many with issues in adding the link, I decided that I would never do that.
I splitted the two parts, and now they run both fine.
My conclusions is:
- motor is too weak to have decent rotation speed
- motor rotation speed is decreased by increased tension on bearings by belts that pull to hard on the axis.
