  Re: L3Lab is so awesome!
 
Thank you, John. I'm flattered. It's just that... Lars made L3Lab! :o) /Tore (...) (26 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Check out your local K-Mart for a bargain !!!
 
More bargains out there to be found. K-Mart has dropped the price on the 7161 Gungan Sub to ($59.90) and 7171 Mos Espa Pod Race to ($94.90). Not sure if this will be so at your local as I visited several K-marts and each had different sets on sale (...) (26 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  More torque
 
Is there an easy way to get more torque out of a stepper motor? Upping the voltage is not an option at this time. I've already decreased the width of the pulses enough (so that it has enough torque to start on its own without a push) that it goes (...) (26 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: CO BrikWars get together
 
(...) That's probably the best plan. I'm starting to feel that the whole point ratio thing will never be a perfect fit; no amount of CaveMan troops would ever be able to defeat an X-Wing for instance, no matter how many extra points you gave the (...)

I doubt that anyone would do that, if all you had were a bunch of knights and somebody decided to butcher you with a bunch of Harriers, then you would just pack up and go home because there wouldn't even be any point in fighting the battle.

  Exploaration mars
 
Buone e cattive notizie per il set in questione. Quella buona è che l'arrivo in Italia (indovinate dove) è previsto entro la fine del mese, quella cattiva (almeno per me) è che non ci saranno i cingoli larghi (vedi vecchi set). Il set conterra un (...) (26 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.it)
 
  RE: Soccer sets in Aus
 
This is like the train stuff last year...I phoned LA and was told categorically that we would NOT get any train sets other than those shown in the catalogue..Then they bring in the other sets without letting anyone know. If this happens with the (...) (26 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

Some more background and clarification (Important): This new .lego.* area (especially .lego.direct) is intended more as a "community dialogue with the LEGO Company -- for courteous and concise discussion" than as a regular traffic discussion (...)

(...) hahaha (...) Man, I wish I had 30 skeletons. You could just field them as regular Troopers if you wanted - they'd probably have the same armor value; their decreased sturdiness is counteracted by the fact that they can lose a lot of pieces (...)

  Re: about robots and handy board
 
Francis, Thanks for the info! I'm not an expert, but doesn't PIC stand for "Peripheral Interface Controller"? Well, I guess it's all just semantics, they both could be correct... Just wondering, John Wynne (...) (26 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: CO BrikWars get together
 
(...) This is usually the way to go - it doesn't even matter that much if they aren't well matched, if you have more than two players. Weaker players will always tend to gang up on stronger ones, even if they don't declare official alliances. (...) (...) (26 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.oh)
 
  Re: More torque
 
One word "Chopper" Nearly every commercial stepper motor driver I have ever seen uses a chopper circuit. This is because torque is related to current (actually its related to magnetic flux but that's related to current :-). The operation of a (...)

  Re: CO BrikWars get together

  Re: Soccer sets in Aus
 
(...) Since they are in the catalogue for the first half of the year (2 cats/yr) I guess it will be before July if at all. TRU's will probably carry most of the range, as my local TRU manager says they like to be a 'destination' with the 'widest (...) (26 years ago, 12-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

  Controlling RCX with game controller
 
Hi everyone, I have developed a program for Windows 95/98/2000 that will allow you to control your RCX with a game controller via the infrared transmitter that comes with the RIS set.
