First, I'd like to thank Hao-yang Wang for letting all of us know about the availability of rotational sensors. In case you missed it: >I saw both the rotation sensor (9756) and the temperature sensor (9755) at >www.legoworldshop.com last week. >( I (...)

I had two of these gearing down blocks, one of each type. They must both have stripped gears in side now because they both slip when under strain. The 2x4x3 square gearing down block must have used a worm gear because you could not use it to gear (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics)
