Lego Technic 12 Speed Rotary Gearbox with 3 reverse speeds
Here I present my Lego Technic MOC 12 speed gearbox design. The gearbox implements 3 reverse speeds, a stop gear (zero speed), and 8 forward speeds. The forward speeds range from 0.307 to 1.2 and reverse from -0.067 to -0.36. The lego technic gearbox has a single gear lever to drive two rotary selectors to select the gears. These are the same orange rotary selectors as used in the Bugatti Chiron Set 42083.
