(...) Why should it be so complicate. I think about a DLL that gets only some informations like: Filename(to render),LDrawPath, LDConfigPath, BackgroundColor, DefaultColor and hDC for output. All other stuff should be done in a black box. This would (...) (17 years ago, 22-Dec-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Don't you just love how TRU marks up almost all Lego sets by $1-$3? It's just like the "glory" days of KB, where they'd horrendously markup prices and then have "sales" that bring the price back to normal. Oh well. I had to have the sets (...)

I uploaded a video (with some stills in it) of a Power-Functions remote controlled car. It uses a dual-differential drive so that it can go straight well. (The video also shows stills of an earlier version that used a more conventional steering; but (...) (17 years ago, 22-Dec-07, to lugnet.technic)

| | Re: NXT Program: How to avoid stop-and-go? (US-Sensor in angle)

(...) At a glancing angle (not approaching the wall "head on" at 90°, but at an angle) very little sound energy will be reflected back towards the sensor. If there isn't enough energy reflected back for the sensor to "hear" the echo, it won't detect (...) (17 years ago, 22-Dec-07, to lugnet.robotics)

Hello! That's a nice way to present your sets. Usually you just see them displayed in showcases or display-staircases or the like. That way the sets are hardly relating to each other. You however show a real Castle world. I like that. Bye Jojo (17 years ago, 22-Dec-07, to lugnet.events, lugnet.castle, lugnet.space)

Brian, It works fantastic. Thanks. Now I've put 2 US Wait blocks. The 1st one to slow down for < 30cm and the 2nd one to turn for < 20cm. This works pretty well when the vehicle runs ~90 degree toward the wall. But when the angle is flat it only (...) (17 years ago, 22-Dec-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Just by the way, back in those days LEGO also made a 12V technic motor that was the same size as the 4.5 but came in black.

I went to the Toys-R-Us store and purchased some of the new LEGO Indiana Jones Sets. Set #7620 (Motor Cycle Chase) that would normally retail for $9.99, sold for $10.99. Set #7622 (Race for the Stolen Treasure) retailed for $30.99, and Set #7621 (...) (17 years ago, 22-Dec-07, to lugnet.market.shopping)
