Since it's spring and everyone is about flowers, has anyone thought of mixing dragon plumes (x46, x48) with regular flowers? It seems obvious enough that it must have been done already, but I don't remember seeing it yet: (URL) I just wish I had (...) (19 years ago, 8-Apr-07, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| | RE: Using NXT Port 4 EIA-485
|
|
I've looked at implementing an interface for RobotC, but I've always struggled with why bother since there are no applications that connect to it. I wish LEGO had implemented an option to provide a logic level "RS-232" UART on port four. Yes, I (...) (19 years ago, 8-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt, lugnet.robotics.nxt.nxthacking)

Nifty work there! It definetly looks fun, and makes me want to get some of those wheels. Without a differential, does it suffer on curves(1)? The only work around I can think of would be to only power one side of each axle, or put the gearing the (...) (19 years ago, 8-Apr-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics, FTX)

(...) As far as I know, there isn't any support for this interface in either the standard firmware or any of the other third party firmware implementations. The interface runs at 921,600 bps so it will be fast enough to be really useful. I am hoping (...) (19 years ago, 8-Apr-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

| | A Technic Train
|
|
The new Lego remote-controlled (RC) trains use train wheels with Technic axle holes (only in the wheels connected to the motor, unfortunately). This creates an opportunity to power a train using essentially any Technic or Mindstorms motor, not just (...) (19 years ago, 8-Apr-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics, FTX) !

(...) I thought about using a static instead of ungetc() in the first version of readLine() that I posted. This means that you can only read from one open file at a time, but that is usually an OK restriction as long as the programmer is aware of (...) (19 years ago, 8-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) As long as you only have one character to 'unget' you could probably speed it up by introducing a static char which holds the 'ungetted' char (or null), instead of going through ungetc() -- fgetc(). OTOH, the if-statement to check if there is (...) (19 years ago, 8-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad)

| | Technic Clock Tower Building with Electric Drive

I built a new version of my clock tower building for a recent train layout with (URL) NELUG>. The clock mechanism is built from 100% genuine LEGO and is driven by a 9V (RIS-style) motor powered from a train transformer at a bare minimum voltage. I (...)
