Hi, could anybody tell me if there are any Lego Servo-motors?

There are only (AFAIK) three Lego motors - the puny "Micromotor", the
old Technics motor and the modern Technics/Mindstorms motor.

The Mindstorms motor is clearly better than either of the other two
(unless you are very short of space or something).

But the answer is:  No - there are no servo's and no stepper-motors.

Stepper motors are on my Mindstorms wish-list and so is a mind-numbingly-simpl...ver-see-it 9V to 4.5V motor interface so that Mindstorms can control the old, beefier, motors (of which I have 6 to (...)
