(...) I got two old sets on eBay, 8035 and 8044. I think it might have been one of those two sets that it came from. I noticed another difference- they don't have the slot in the middle. I'll take a picture in the morning and send it to you. Of (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi, I've been lurking on lugnet.robotics for a couple months now, with just a few odd comments here and there. You're probably wondering who the heck I am. Well, I'm a new 40 year old fan of Legos. Although I've been an admirer of legos all my life, (...) (23 years ago, 4-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Hi Mike, Unfortunately there is no possibility under Robolab 2.5 that the RCX might itself access the data collected in the log.

Steve, If the precision is due to the axe slipping while not being driven, you could consider using a pully off a micro-motor. It has a friction slip mechanism at one end, and an axle hole at the other. You could use the axle hole to stablize the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics)

There's an older version of the black pegs that are even tighter. Too tight, in my opinion, so I've set the few that I have aside. You can easily tell the difference- look at a regular black peg. It has short lengthwise ridges on the ends about 2mm (...) (23 years ago, 4-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics)
