Does anyone have any images or information about the upcoming servos? How
big are they, what do they look like, what’s their torque and speed?

Judging by that picture and others, a motor is about half the size of the NXT
brick (which is claimed to be about the size of the RCX). Who knows about

of power as the RCX. Therefore, we are probably dealing with pretty much
similar motors.

| Christmas comes in August this year! Does anyone have any images or information about the upcoming servos? How big are they, what do they look like, what's their torque and speed? Will we be seeing LEGO Robo-Ones in the next year? Thanks, — Joe (18 years ago, 7-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics, FTX)
