(...) Good idea, and I should have added that to the list. But a high-thrust LEGO air propeller or fan seems to be even tougher to make than a water propeller. There's been a lot of discussion in the past about LEGO hovercraft, but it's rather hard (...) (17 years ago, 14-Sep-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I haven't had a problem with the curves, but I have an eight wide setup. It ran without any trouble during the train show. I did allow a little extra area around the outside of the curves, but I don't think it needed much more than most (...) (17 years ago, 14-Sep-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) I consider the ZNAP flex axles "not good enough" to be put to good use. Another useful item from the ZNAP collection, however, are the wheels. They have a turbine-like shape and from what I remember from past testing in the kitchen sink, they (...) (17 years ago, 13-Sep-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I'd love to see more people try this. It's a little bit risky (usually, when my programming skills fail the robot doesn't end up stranding in the middle of a lake... or worse, on the bottom), but it brings up a whole new range of problems and (...)
