| (...) Yes. (...) No. There are 16 splines, and the axle joiners come in increments of 360/16=22.5 degrees. (...) If you mean the single angle beam ((URL) angle is related to a 3/4/5 triangle, so that the longer side becomes the 5-side of the (...) (25 years ago, 13-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

| Congratulations!! Looks like fun. I have added you to the development map but I will wait until Todd gives you a group on LUGNET before I have him copy it over because I will have to make the link. Here is the development map: (URL) Kingsley (...) (25 years ago, 13-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.loc.us.wa, lugnet.loc.us.wa.sea, lugnet.loc.us.wa.tac)

| After the November 6th "Workshop 3D LEGO RCX Challenge" in Seattle, Gus Jansson and I decided it was time to start a LEGO Robot specific group in this area. Well, it's about a month later, and we're through talking, time for some action! So this is (...)

| You could use the 6-Leg Walker "Mushi Mushi 7" at (URL) in the "Master Builder Tutorial" as the platform for experimentation. I thought the design was real good, ie, symmetrical and with no extra parts used. My only reservation was that 'turning' (...) (25 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics)
| | | | | Re: Help with my robot
|
| Bob Fay's suggestion is a good one, here's another option: Drive both sides with a single motor via a differential, add a rack + pinion steering to the front, or, if you have a second differential, create a mixing differential for a skid-steered (...) (25 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics)
