(...) I can imagine the Blacktron ships bustin' out some warfare [what else would Blacktron think of at the sight of a Futuron spaceport?] What a cool scenario. Maybe I should build it... Z (...) I'm more of a spaceship builder. Battlecarriers are (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jan-00, to lugnet.space)

(...) One way to make the axle stiff is to use mutiple axles. For example, get one long axle and four equal length shorter axles. Use the four shorter axles to join two of the largest gears together, using the axle shaped holes that are off-center (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) If you take an COTS rf module, such as those from Siemens or Montorolo, or for example the bluetooth sample module, (though I used one from a cheap radio shack wireless phone) you'll find that the di and do have very similar voltages and (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I just wish the female astronaut was in one of the small S@H sets! Either #6457 Astronaut or #6458 Astronaut with Sattelite. Either one. I love the way they took the old space-face and feminized it. Very cool. But not cool enough to buy that (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jan-00, to lugnet.space)

All the professional ones use essentially the same concept. Laser interferiometry to determine distance, and some kind of computer controlled most to increment the laser head. A series of points are the raw data. Filtering is necessary (there are (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)
