(...) Gus, 1) Steve has the track...just got it a few days ago...I doubt he gets a chance to make any accurate/repeatable readings in the time available. 2) The track will be available to roll out on the floor (or wherever) all weekend long.

One more question: Would it be possible for whoever currently has the track to post some approximate NXT light sensor readings for the various positions across the (...)

(...) I have now seen a picture of the box on brickshelf which clearly shows the sound module. (URL) direct control, but there is indirect control through the motor operation then. Thanks again! linmix (17 years ago, 19-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Thanks too ;o) (...) I confirm that the sound module has its own battery and a sound trigger push button. As the jaw motor turns a cam pushes the button and starts the roar... No direct relation with remote control :( Philo (17 years ago, 19-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(1) "the bumper should be at the height of the red Technic beam in this figure" Does this mean that a the design must use a studded beam? (A stud-less beam is not as "tall" as the beam in the image.) (2) "The bumper must be straight and not angled (...) (17 years ago, 17-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics)
