Making An Overpowered LEGO Solenoid Engine

Solenoid engines are a lot of fun to build, so let’s make one using Lego, and an overpowered solenoid module! The principle is simple - solenoids consist of an electromagnet that pulls a piston into the coil. We can leverage this movement to drive a crank shaft in an engine, turning the movement into rotation. So let's build an engine powered by this powerful solenoid and see if we can drive some Lego inventions with it. If you’d like to make your own, here’s the solenoid I used: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07SZCHYF7?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1
