(...) Sounds like a great way to test. We could probably try the experiment tomorrow. At the moment, the 10 boys in this week's class are more inclined to play "grab the flag" using automonous robots than BT Remote Control. We experienced the 5 pair (...)

(...) You must be dealing with a different release of the battery pack than I am, since the only portion of the US instructions that mentions numbers states the output of the battery pack (10VAC, 7VA) and the approximate charge time (4 hours). There (...) (17 years ago, 12-Jul-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) As soon as I get ten NXTs handy, I'll be sure to test this. In fact, I may know somebody who could test this (or at least I can think of a place, NI Week, where I might). Very odd. Try this. Establish five pairs, and then establoish a sixth (...) (17 years ago, 12-Jul-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) Is the RCX still working? Does it "get hot" when it's running an unloaded motor? I would have thought that the 500 mA limit within the RCX case would prevent this, but perhaps it's marginal for some plastic piece "nearby". If the RCX is dead, (...)

(...) Strange indeed, But, that's what we experienced. I have faith that more than 5 pairs can communicate all at the same time. On the other hand, maybe we used up all the channels. Perhaps like in RC airplanes, we ran out of crystals. (17 years ago, 11-Jul-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Starting with the original NXTGCC source, if I disable binsert in the makefile, the firmware crashes on boot. The firmware development which I am doing will probably increase the size of the firmware by around 20KB, so I'm wondering if I need to do (...)

One of my students accidently left a tied up gear train running for a while, i.e. In the midst of running a RCX, the case not only gets very hot, but also has a very strong plastic burning smell. At first I thought it is due to the stuck gear train, (...) (17 years ago, 11-Jul-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
