I checked out the Nerf balls that are about the same size as the LEGO ones, but they are much denser and harder. I was surprised. They probably shoot much better than the super light foam ones, though. I got a wicked pile of Ping Pong balls that are (...) (26 years ago, 23-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Rob, Another suggestion for debuging your setup would be to write a program which; 1, anually counts the pulses from the encoder, and writes them to the lcd screen; or 2, Just writes the state of the encoder input to the screen (a 1 or 0). Then you (...) (26 years ago, 23-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
