Has anyone tried putting Maglev into the CH WeiLong WR M 2021 yet? I think, that i've seen a post of someone putting RS3M 2021 Maglev into this cube but i can't find it anymore. Could this combination be any good?

I use it and it is really nice!

I got my wrm 2021 maglev today. It's really nice and smooth, I like it.

I thought both MoYo 2021 cubes (RS3C and WR M) had maglev.

 

[Kaiju_cube]

They do. The WRM feels lighter and less clacky, but they both have maglev

 

[7ombie]

I personally went with the RS3C, just due to a subjective preference for simple designs, but the WR M is a better cube, by all accounts.

The OP was asking about retrofitting maglev to a CH WeiLong WR M 2021. As far as I know, that cube is just a signature WR M 2021, so should have maglev out the box??

Hi, I just found a GTS3 that is on sale but I cannot find 4x1.5 magnets for it.

Can anyone recommend magnets for this cube if I'm ignoring the slots for magnets? Thanks.

 

[Lukz]

Since my gan 356 rs is not magnetic, i ordered magnets for it (did I get the right ones)
After I ordered them I realized that they were for rs3m. Will they still work? (rs3m magnet kit from the cubicle)

 

[Lukz]

Can a I edit my order even 2 days after?

 

[Luke Solves Cubes]

you can edit the order if it had not been shipped out yet

It already has

It already has

just dont get the rs

I got it last November because it was cheap

Hey, so I'm trying to figure out what the difference is between the triangle corner to core magnets and the hexagonal ones... Can anybody help me with that?
(gan 11 m pro)
edit: I would like the weaker magnets, but I just don't know which ones are which

I believe the triangle magnets are weaker. It does say on the magnet box but it’s hard to see.

Hey
I have a question about the core-edge magnets in the gan 12. I‘m a little confused because gan says they are repulsing magnet. With which other magnets do they interact? Wouldn‘t it make the cube unstable if the corner core magnets attract each other and the edge core magnets between the corners repulse each other? Yeah so does anyone understand how this works? Sry if thats a weird question I‘m just so confused haah

In each center-piece, there are two magnets that repel each other. This act of magnets is called magnetic levitation, and this creates a spring-like feeling. It is only for the centers, and the corner-core magnets and the edge/corner magnets attract to each other like normal magnets do.
As for the edge/core magnets, they also repel, but since the corner/core magnets are there to snap back together, it will stay together. The core is still a corner-core magnet system, but as the edge magnets at the bottom of the tracks meet, they repel, and as the corner magnets come back into position, they snap back together.
At least, that is what I speculate.

Ohhhhhhh okay. So there are not more core magnets in the 13 than on the 12. the magnets on the edgepieces repel with the core/corner magnets in the core. And as you turn, the corner loses the magnetic attraction and to further aid the turn the edge magnets repell with the core magnets und push the turn further? Did I understand that correctly? Thanks btw for clearing that up.

Yes. I’m quite excited for mine to arrive as I quite liked the MGC repulsion cube.

Thats interesting. But somehow that sounds like an unstable cube. I‘m still deciding if I‘m gonna get it or the 11m pro

I want to learn more puzzles other than the official wca puzzles. I have a kilominx so i have 1 non wca puzzle. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
