With the premise that the 'bot 'could do it with regular 'LEGO' sensors, but the builder didn't swap 'em in and used the HiTechnic. I (...) (18 years ago, 9-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Adding the turntable in the wire means your wires won't twist up, which means they won't add tension to the connectors which means they won't pull off the connectors (...)

I just wanted to try something different, and it'll give me an excuse to use a soldering iron. I'll stay in the scope of the (...) (18 years ago, 10-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
