Has anyone been to the nowstOre in hongkong what cubes do they have there?

I have, it's a really small store, with a limited supply.

Do you know an online alg generator? Not one that needs to be downloaded.

Do you mean a emulator? Try the one at randelsholfer.CH.

Like cube explorer but web based. I will try that in the morning. Too tired.

Taking off torpedoes on a Zhanchi?

I really want to try it taken off, I currently had no problem disassembling the cube, but I'm worried that if I used too much force on the torpedoes, it'll crack or something.

How do I take it off properly?

 

[mDiPalma]

Pull the edge piece into its 2 halves.

Remove the torpedo.

Repeat 11 more times.

You shouldn't have to force anything. The edge pieces on Dayan cubes split into two separate pieces. Take the edge apart, then the torpedo can be taken out easily.

 

[cubingawsumness]

If you're talking about taking the edge out, twist it out not just pull it because the torpedoes keep the edge piece locked into the corners.

I just re-stickered my main (GuHong v2) and used goo gone to remove the adhesive residue, but some (or a lot) of goo gone got inside the cube. I have wiped out and re-lubricated the cube twice. Its still feels sticky, like the goo gone is still in there acting like glue. What should I do?

You could try to apply some "goo gone gone" or else just put the whole cube minus the core in the dishwasher in some sort of "holed" container to keep the pieces in one place.

Stick a blade in between the two halves of the edge piece and tilt it back and forth till it begins to loosen, then pull it apart. The torpedo will be stuck in one of the halves. Just pull it out from there.

I suggest just break it in, the goo gone will eventually wear off. Don't lube it to avoid any reactions, and the goo gone can be removed faster via the friction inside the cube, I believe. That's what I would do though.

if i put it in the dishwasher won't it ruin the stickers?

Kind of.

Is there any speed/ performance differences between the lubix lingyun v1 and the lubix lingyun v2?

I wouldn't buy from lubix. Just order a lingyunv2 and lube it with traxxas or something
