(...) Yup. You really have to use a belt somewhere in the drive train with these motors, which allows it to slip instead of jamming. (...) I'd tend to agree, although they can be useful in functional applications if you are very careful. Sometimes I (...) (25 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) If you have the Cybermaster touch sensors, you can multiplex all three on a port, see (URL) . Use a task to look at the raw values and decode which sensors are pressed, e.g. in NQC: #define TOUCH_SENSOR SENSOR_1 int touch_sensor_state; #define (...)

(...) Yes, my two also emit a rather unpleasant high-pitched sound. Personally, I tend to always use gear motors. In the beginning I used a minimotor for steering a robot, but it was very slow and jammed often. I'd say they are better for rotating (...) (25 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics)

I've been thinking of upgrading my (MS)2 Expander from it's current 6 ports to 10 ports. For those of you that aren't familiar with the (MS)2 Expander you can look here: (URL) the (MS)2 gives you two banks of 3 outputs. Each bank is independent and (...)
