The centre pieces are so... Wacky looking... I don't plan on getting one myself, though I didn't realize they'd already finished the v2 of the lingyun.

anyway, I hope this is a great cube for some people, though I think I'll stick to my guhong/ZanChi -> when it comes.

I had heard of that liike 1 month ago, but i haven't seen pictures yet, pretty cool.

The Prototype feels really rough and REALLY locky, it also doesn't feel or sound anything like the LingYun v1. It came assembled and with some silicone spray on the internals, but I have such a dilemma with this cube. On the one hand DaYan have delivered, once again, a cube that has the potential to be amazing but only after careful assembly, accurate tensioning and skillful modding - particularly the 48 point edge mod and smoothing the underside of the corner stalks. On the other hand, I don't mod prototypes so this is a rough feeling, locky little b*#tard that still explodes despite the torpedoes if it is loosely tensioned. It merely serves as a reminder of just how much work I put into my original LingYun to make it the superb cube it is.

What has changed? They Added torpedos and reshaped the cube pieces to fit the torps right?

There is a huge different between the assembled lingyun V1 and the DIY one, I don't know why, so maybe it's sucking too because of that...

I just hope this cube is good, lingyun is the cube that I most got used to so far....

I dont see any differences but they fit torpedos? am i wrong?


Edit: i see the center pieces are a little different but thats it!

 

[Pazuzu]

I swapped the edges with my lingyun v1 and it was all over the shop! I can't see ANY difference between the edges of v1 and v2 except for the torps, but somehow they aren't very compatible. It's like the plastic is thicker or something. They are not the same, even though the edges and corners look identical. Very strange

Great post WitEden.

Do you happen to know exactly what kind of plastic DaYan (or most popular makers) are using, I'm just trying to sort out my lube and I'm unwilling to blindly use Jigaloo (can't get it anyway) or CRC HDS because I believe they're both more for metal than for plastic, Maru Lube have no MSDS I can find so who knows what it really is? Anyway BECHEM have got a great line up of lubes for plastic (and everything else) but I need to know the exact plastic type?

Yes I know it's said to be ABS but ...?

Thanks.
