Hydraulics? I can't ever remember seeing any mention of LEGO developing
hydraulics.
If they are going to be using hydraulics, though, I think they'd better be
using better hoses and fittings, fluid isn't that easy to hold under
pressure.

| (...) They have new cylinders which they call hydraulic. They're actually spring-based shock absorbers with a pneumatic cushion -- no real hydraulics involved at all. And unlike the old pneumatic system, they can't be interconnected. (24 years ago, 12-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

| This is to Brad. Why is Lego not making pneumatics. I ordered to sets of hoses, switches, and cylinders and only got the cylinders. Is the hydraulics taking over? If they are I wish they would make cylinders you can control like the pneumatics. Adam (24 years ago, 10-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
