  Re: RIS 3.0
 
(...) No - there is no "3.0". There was talk of it some time ago - but I think we've seen the last of decent Lego robotics sets. I'd very much like to be proved wrong though. I was rather suprised to see that in the latest Pitsco Dacta catalog, (...) (22 years ago, 23-Aug-03, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) 3.0! 3.0!!! I just spent $200 buying 2.0, and you're telling me there's a 3.0??? Where's that receipt!?!! Seriously, though: I just bought, Tuesday, a RIS 2.0 set, my first RIS set. Is the 3.0 currently available? If not, when will it be (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-03, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: USB vs Serial Tower Response Time
 
(...) Dick If, by chance, BricxCC (or NQC) happened to be the popular program to which you refer I'd love to hear more details about your software tests and the code you use for communicating with the RCX via the USB tower. I'm not particularly (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  LABEL GENERATION
 
Hi Everybody; Im working in a project of a new embedded operating system for RCX and Im using the GNU Cross Compiler! This new system is intended to be multi- plataform and the generation of symbols by the compiler must have the same standard to get (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-03, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Actually they provide more mechanical power than standard RIS motor, at the price of an increased consumption (almost doubled). More info soon in my motor comparison page ;o) Philo www.philohome.com (22 years ago, 22-Aug-03, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Pneumatic Magic Presetnation Maertials
 
(...) I sucked grease - by manually pulling the plunger with a dab of grease on the bottom air input - into my cylinders and they move more consistently and don't leak pressure. I used ceramic grease of the type you get for RC car gearboxes. They (...) (22 years ago, 21-Aug-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Dick, thanks for posting this information. I have some USB code I need to do some more work on and this should prove very useful! Mark (22 years ago, 22-Aug-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) power (...) What baffles me is why Lego never made a rotation sensor based on a potentiometer. It would be low cost (since it is passive) and offer much better resolution than the current rotation sensor for applications requiring <270 degrees (...)

SNIP (...) They did make a clear touch sensor. Well, clear light blue. It came in the Cybermaster sets... (URL) - who just wants more inputs and outputs on his RCX 3.0. Oh, and a power jack, and rf (instead of ir), a wireless cam, and new sensors. (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-03, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: RIS 3.0
 
Now that is freaking awesome - but do they supply the same amount of torque as the 'standard' ones do? Also, that gearbox 2, looks nice and all, might come in handy, but I prefer having more control over my placment of gears. I think it would be (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-03, to lugnet.robotics)

  Lego Mindstorms SDK 2.5
 
I am unable to extract the Lego Mindstorms SDK 2.5. Inside the zip file is just a Windows executable which does not seem to be either a zip or rar self extracting archive, does anyone know where to get a copy of it in a normal archive format, or how (...)

  Re: RCX convert from AA to Wall power.
 
Wow, I'm sure glad I have the RCX 1.0 with the power jack... I didn't even know the newer ones didn't have it until I started to visit LUGNET...It's something I couldn't live without, not to mention the battery contacts are unreliable... (...) (22 years ago, 21-Aug-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: USB vs Serial Tower Response Time
 
Wow, that answers a lot of questions, all but one: why is the USB's 'long range' shorter than the Serial's distance? Was my speculation of the available power true?
