Indeed, most of the students in the class slapped a pair of wheels onto a RCX and that was that. Part of what I tried to enstill in them was: This is what's possible, so why not make it a reality, Same goes for other aspects of their own lives, Make (...)

Thank you, most of the students could'nt belive that the Robot used no glue, they had a hard time understanding that the whole structure stayed together under it's own construction. Cross bracing beams is the key. Also they were'nt familair with the (...) (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

You got it all wrong. An MAP is only one specific mecha, it is not a class. In the anime movie _Appleseed_ Shirow Masumane made a whole new class of mecha called mobile platforms. One MP can be seen near the end. My MAP and MSP are mobile platforms, (...) (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
