So, that leaves 0.1625 LB (1)(2) for sensors and parts. (3)

the more I see it, the more I LIKE the 1 lb rule!

(1) all weights in g, not kg

So what are you saying?

0.0737087601KG in G is about 73 G.

thats means, (useing your chart) with 3 motors, and 1 rcx, you have 73 grams
left.

with 73 grams, you can have 1 lx, one touch and one rotation sensor, (20 g)

that leaves you with 53 grams

two if these tires 50.0 x 20mm 6582 is about 40 grams,

that leaves 13 grams, for wire, bricks, and gears.

OR!!!

you can forgo the 3rd motor, and free up some weight.  OR, maybe trade the RCX
for a few micro scouts, OR dont use the rotation sensor, OR?????

nope. you have not yet sold me that 1 lb is too little.

i STILL like the 1 lb rule. BUT, this is rtl and we are open to LOTS of
discussion and feedback from all.

Chris

did you make that batter box sumo?? that must have been light.

(...) Oh dear Chris, you seem to have picked up kg disease from Steve, and reversed it... maybe you're a matching pair? ROSCO (19 years ago, 29-Mar-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Steve has made a number of them for different LEGO sumo events (his first version was named "Reactor", followed by things like "Chernobyl"). Actually (depressingly for me) they do better than almost any RCX "intelligent" sumobot they've gone (...) (19 years ago, 29-Mar-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
