<snip> it's too bad that all of you just HAVE to use a palm OS device. someone a long time ago ported nqc to windowsce and it works fine, i'm able to do on the fly programming and uploading with a first generation device, which i'm actually unhappy (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

<snip> from using different types of yoyos and other things i have found that the best for inert lubricating is silicon lubricant, there are also some other lubes for nylon that i can't think of but i do know that they are out there. some vcr repair (...)

I would like to try using threaded nylon rods. Where can you buy them? I've only used steel threaded rods to restrain large axial forces (e.g. in a crane turntable). I've also used smooth 3/16" bar stock when I needed a very stiff and strong axle (I (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) If you use NQC then you can write a small program and load it into the Scout...then it behaves much like the RCX. The Scout has VERY little free memory - but it's enough to allow it to act as a dumb peripheral, turning motors on and off and (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

I applaud 100%! Great work! I like to think that if the Lego designers can have new bits for new models, so can we!!!! I appear to have duplicated just about everthing you've been doing :) As far as the threaded rod business goes; I've been buying (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Doesn't "Reply to Group" only work with New Groups (NNTP), not e-mail lists? And don't ALL e-mail clients have a 'Reply To All' function? Can't you just do that and erase the recipient you don't want (in this case, the sender)? -- V (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

When you communicate between RCX's you set a number and then use the other end as a sensor to do a certain procedure. Does anybody know what happens when you send those messages to a scout. I know 1 is 'seek dark', 2 is 'seek light and 3 is 'do the (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

How about a water-based lubricant instead of petroleum-based? If it's safe for latex...why not ABS? :) Use it sparingly and only as a last resort. Personally, I doubt I would use graphite. Graphite would be a little too messy for me. -Troy (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)
