Are there any special lego groups, or web sites in the Midlands. I live in Worcester and would like to find out if there is anything i am missing. Rob. (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)

I hate to be completely A.R., but what does everyone think is the better storage method: attached or loose? Do attached bricks get used to being attached and loose their "snap"? Do loose bricks get scratched faster than attached bricks? KL (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.storage)

okay.. how about this.. avg servo needs.. 60hz pulses.. 1.0ms pulse width = end point 1.5ms pulse width = middle of rotation 2.0ms pulse width = other end point that is the form of the data to the servo. so you need to out put pulses 60 times a (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I think what John was trying to say was that pulse widths between 0.7 ms and 2.0 ms give servo rotations between 0 and 180 degrees. With 45 steps in that range, you can control the servo in 5 degree increments. Seems to me he was approximating (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | a correction! to r/c servo
|
|
Sorry about that! The resulting 0.03 mS pulse width increments would result in 5 degree increments in the position of the servo shaft. How about that? JB -- Did you check the web site first?: (URL) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | Re: r/c servos
|
|
(...) The answer is pretty simple, actually. In order to control a servo, you need to use pulses whose lengths are on the order of 1-2 ms. The more steps you get in that range, the more servo positions you can use. NQC can't produce pulses as short (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) If all you need to do is generate a pulse of a certain length, why can't you do something like this? Sleep(1); // synchronize with the centisecond timer Fwd(OUT_A, 7); Sleep(1); // 1/100 of a second Off(OUT_A); Sleep(2); // 2/100 of a second (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)
