If you are interested, you can take a look at a mechanism I made (inspired from the 8205 pull back string powered dragster) which allows one motor to make a vehicle go forwards or turn on the spot depending on the direction of the motor output. The (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Insectoids anyone?
 
(...) Auction/Sale announcements are OK then? Even if they are, I don't want to see "30 Minutes Until My Auction Ends" type posts. I suppose we could give it a try it, and then review it in a few weeks if things get out of hand. I must admit I'm a (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.loc.uk)
 
  Re: Question: One motor & Turning
 
(...) No and no. You can allways reverse the motor, and the 'normal' way to steer, is to have a steering wheel that casters to the straight ahead, when driven forward, and rotates to a fixed angle in one direction, when the vehicle goes backwards.

  Re: Question about Lego Solar Panels
 
(...) This was answered a little while ago (with regards to the cell). It is specified as: 3v, 200mA (full sunlight) 100mA (indoor sunlight) 2.5v 8mA (indoor low bulb). The capacitor is 2.5v 1Farad. Best Wishes (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)

  Question about Lego Solar Panels
 
So does anyone know the specs on the "new" Lego Solar panels found in the new Pitsco-DACTA catalog, such as what kind of power output/voltage you can get out of them? Any specs on the capacitors would be cool too. <nofill> Thanks, Kenneth --- (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)

  Question: One motor & Turning
 
Hi, If I only use one motor to power a robot's drive-train, am I stuck with forward motion only (and no turning ability)? Thanks, Bryan (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Micro Rover!
 
I decided to see how small a rover I could build while still including steering and a bumper. This rover is too small to carry an RCX (actually you could hide it behind an RCX), so it operates with a tether: (URL) else have any tiny mindstorms (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)
