(...) Thanks Eric! (...) Sure! (...) I just ordered up 20 small pistons to make one that is faster. I should add head and tail. I wonder if a tail and a head can be articulated so I can reduce foot side. (...) Thanks Eric. (...) Very cool Eric! (...)

(...) It really is. I do think somebody made a mistake specific to the rotation sensor, though. I haven't decided yet whether it's the firmware, the sensor, or just the overall mechanism. I can understand how it got past quality control - sometimes (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

(...) Unfortunately, I fear the comparison is all too true! So, is my robot going to blow up? ;) (...) I'd appreciate some specifics. So far, I have not been able to find a way to do this in Robolab. I wrote some code to test raw sensor values and (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

OK You do something great, and all the world is looking at it, finding the finest detail one could have made much better. That's the power of internet-exchange. Don't take this personally. I only wanted to remind the great job they did at LEGO's (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

Hi ! I also have already used an external power supply for my RCX, which was a battery pack of 7 cells (8,4 V) with 2Ah each. It worked quite well but from one day to the another my RCX didn't word any more. I haven't found out jet, why my RCX (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) By contrast, BrickOS continuously samples each sensor at a rate of about 6.7 samples per millisecond. This is 20 times more often than the standard firmware. It's no wonder it's more accurate at higher rotation rates. Of course, it also (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
