I had to build a mindstorm robot for my tech class in high school, that was 4 years ago, not that long ago. But we used the 1998 model and had to use a very specific program only available for windows 98 and getting that computer started was a CHALLENGE, the programming language was very weird but I must say after twenty years that Lego computer worked absolutely flawlessly, it's incredible the amount of quality Lego has put in their products since forever

That new "gear holder" piece has only appeared in one other Technic set, and just first appeared this year, I believe. It's a new differential, designed to withstand motorized functions better than the old design. It's the best differential design they've made yet, and I expect we'll see a lot more of it in the future.

It has been argued the designation for the new kit is Spike PRIME, since the Intelligent Hub and servos originated from these sets. However, I think many people may simply call the range "eva" (a scifi form of EV4).

Boone is on Beyond the Brick again, this is great. Great video Beyond the Brick very cool.

16:28 the center piece is called a heavy duty differential. its used in most Control+ car sets

Just started watching lego videos and you do a great job. I enjoy all the enthusiasm that you show in the videos. I had just put together the promo box of this mindstorm set and even though it lacks the robotic parts and programmability, it was fun. I have recently rediscovered Lego as a relaxation mechanism. Something relaxing about just assembling the builds.

I love the new Lego Mindstorms Inventor

ev4, it's called ev4 because it's the fourth evolution of it's series (ev = evolution and 4 for fourth)

I love it when he has no idea about the differential piece

I used the classic version in college. This version remind me more of Kinects..I dont see a single lego piece.. Do they sell the classic versions? It was fun creating something custom and doing sumo wrestling in a white line ring against opponents custom design.

Great video! Do you know how to see the battery level? Cant find it in the app and having issues charging. Thanks!

This is so much better than anything robotics LEGO made before. Better hub: check, BT: check, better and smaller motors: check, more programming options: check, way better set of bricks and pieces: check, better wheels: check, better sensors: check. They only box that might actually offer you even better bang for the buck is the 42199 Liebherr, it comes with 7 motors and 2x4 port Hubs, and is every bit as robot-programmable as this. Just buy some sensors along, and you have an awesome robot starter kit.
