(...) Steve McD, I wasn't able to make a DLL for the control system: not enough time to climb the curve or even to set up a Windoze development environment. For now, I think I'll try to bang out something quick and dirty, but hopefully still (...) (22 years ago, 15-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)

(...) Yes, the motor can be above (as shown), below, or behind (further from the track) the drive train without significant design change or increase in volume. You can easily put it to the left or right of the drive train, but that's harder to (...) (22 years ago, 14-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)

(...) Nifty. This looks like pretty optimal in terms of horizontal space. Can the design be easily adapted to a lower profile (motor beside the mechanism) when horizontal space is plentiful? Putting the motor beneath the mechanism looks okay (I (...) (22 years ago, 13-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)
