Helicopter Cube a 6-member cycle, often referred to as its "orbit". Face center pieces in different orbits cannot be interchanged using only 180° twists. However, jumbling moves are able to permute face center pieces between different orbits, thus leaving the puzzle in a state that cannot be solved by 180° twists alone. Assume that Helicopter Cube is scrambled without jumbling moves (i.e. mixed with only 180 degree twists). Any permutation of the corners is possible, including odd permutations. Seven of the corners can be independently rotated, and the orientation of the eighth depends on the other seven, giving 8!×3 combinations. There are
Dino Cube the limit by 2. The edge pieces cannot be flipped or misorientated (See "Solving"), therefore this is also not taken into account. The total number of possible combinations on the six-colour Dino Cube is therefore equal to: This number is low compared to the number of combinations of the Rubik's Cube (which has over 4.3×10 combinations) but still larger than many other puzzles in the Rubik's Cube family, notably the Pocket Cube (over 3.6 million combinations) and the Pyraminx (just over 930 thousand combinations, excluding rotations of the trivial tips). The number of possible of configurations, 19 958 400, is
