  Re: "Servo" Driver for NQC
 
(...) But it doesn't need to. The 'power' settings built into the RCX firmware are already using pulse-width modulation to adjust the amount of power the motor delivers. ---...--- Steve Baker ---...--- Mail : <sjbaker1@airmail.net> WorkMail: (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Using un`Lego sensors
 
(...) The trouble with this (I suppose) is that the precision of the A-to-D convertor in the RCX is going sharply limit the angular precision when that number range is 'stretched' over ten revolutions. I've seen the devices you talk about though - (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: "Servo" Driver for NQC
 
(...) I have to disagree with your approach. Even at low speeds, alternating between pushing on the gas and stamping on the brake isn't the way to drive smoothly. Perhaps you need to gear the machine differently and use less power during the ON (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Well I haven't seen your version of the Project-X design, but I'll assume it's similar (albeit vastly inferior) to the one I'm entering. I'm assuming that for the sake of speed, you are keeping moving mass to a minimum and hence, not loading (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
