(...) No, because AC power also means you can be sloppy with control loops. You can brute force time instead of using clever mechanisms (Iain/Rob) or sensoring everything (Chris, Bruce) (...) This is why I was against the external battery box of (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Vineet, I don't think it takes cahones to answer questions that can be answered by doing basic research. I think it takes patience. A LOT of patience. You need to do that basic research. *You* need to go to the rtlToronto website and do a (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Bruce Sheridan- I am asking "infantile" questions, 'Will the robots be RC controlled, or controlled via laptop'. Take a look at you. You didn't even have the cahones to answer one of my earlier posted questions, 'What is Project X'?, as if you (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
