Robotics Academy. 12 Surprising Details About Lego Mindstorms EV3. The NXT set had around 80 straight Technic beams; EV3 has fewer than 60. The NXT set had the big wheels you see here, along with matching tank treads. EVE3 has these as well as two types of smaller wheels. The EV3 features a larger proportion of shorter axles than the NXT set. Additionally, there are new axle elements, 4M cross axles with a stop partway down the length. The NXT set had only six of those sweet double-angle beams, pictured on the left. EV3 sports 12. On the down side, there are fewer 2x4 and 3x5 90-degree angle beams. One of my favorite Technic parts is the "90-degree angle beam w/ 4 snaps".

The EV3 set features about 50% more gears than its predecessor, with a greater variety of parts. The NXT set had zero of these fabulously useful frames, used for making more solid constructions. The NXT set didn't have this -- the EV3 set packs a cute IR receiver that looks like a pair of eyes, along with a wee IR remote that operates off two AAAs. View All John Baichtal Related.
