| | Re: Bluetooth remote control of NXT from Mac/Windows?
|
| (...) Microsoft Robotics Studio gives you real-time control over the NXT. Coincidentally, I got an email today about (URL) SimplySim>, which simulates the TriBot using the Robotics Studio. But of course this is for Windows only, so if you have to (...) (16 years ago, 6-Jan-09, to lugnet.robotics.nxt, FTX)

You give them some specifications and requirements for the software plus free Mountain Dew, and they go off to design and write your software. After several (...)

| | Re: Brickworld - Train Drag Racing

Do all events require rail power/Do any events allow (...) (16 years ago, 28-Jan-09, to lugnet.events.brickworld)

| | Re: The pole reverser - what's it do?
|
| I have a related question: Why did LEGO add a permanent post to the new switch? The old polarity switch could turn 360 degrees if you didn't add a post, but the new one only turns as far as its built-in post allows. I will grant that I've never (...)

| | NXT and Windows 7
|
| I have Windows 7 RC on my netbook and I can't get the NXT software (version 1.1) to install. It hangs when the installer presents its progress bars and starts copying files off the CD. Does the 2.0 software work with Windows 7? By the way, RIS 2.0 (...) (15 years ago, 27-Jul-09, to lugnet.robotics.nxt, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | Re: Converting an Emerald Night to run on 9 volt track
|
| (...) Basically, a 9V train motor doesn't fit this engine very well, in terms of both the motor's size and look. I've thought about using a 9V motor, too, and personally I'd use it as one of the trucks on a passenger car, as close to the engine as (...) (15 years ago, 16-Dec-09, to lugnet.trains)

| | Re: Converting an Emerald Knight to run on 9 volt track
|
| (...) Adding it to a passenger car doesn't work very well. The engine is heavy and the internal gearing is being used in reverse, which makes it very hard to push from further back. The 9V motor running at full power can't get enough traction to (...) (15 years ago, 16-Dec-09, to lugnet.trains)

| | Re: 8 Wide Steam Trains
|
| (...) 8-wide gives you more breathing room for details, too. 10-wide even more so, but as John said official LEGO wheels don't match that scale. Also, the larger the scale, the more parts you'll use and the heavier it will be, so you need to worry (...) (15 years ago, 16-Dec-09, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| | Re: 8 Wide Steam Trains
|
| Before John jumps on my post, when I said, "The larger the scale, the more parts you'll use, and the heavier it will be," I meant that as "generally speaking." Simple boxcars aren't going to be much heavier at 8- or 10-wide than at 6-wide, for (...) (15 years ago, 16-Dec-09, to lugnet.trains)
