As no mini-challenge was posted, we'll try a very low-key variation on BrickHeap Wars for this meeting. It will be an individual (or (...) (15 years ago, 14-Jan-11, to lugnet.org.us.smart)

(...) Interesting thread, even if a bit off topic of LEGO motors. I'm not an expert on power circuits, but a google search turned up this web site with a number of interesting power supply circuits (there is a search option).

Hi Brian, (...) I was surprised too. I suspect a relatively high internal resistance of the windings, rather than mechanical friction, as the source of losses. No, (shame on me!) I didn't checked yet with an ohmmeter. (...) This is clearly outside (...) (15 years ago, 13-Jan-11, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.org.us.smart)

The elders amongst you may recall that I have a slight... appreciation for the 948 go-cart. It was, after all, the very first Technic set I received as a kid (circa 1977) and it was the biggest set I got after The Big Melt (tm). Here's some pics of (...)
