| | | | | My untested theory for the balance issue involves a Lego Gyroscope to maintain the balance. I have yet to complete the design of the Gyro, but I will.. If the Gyro were small and light, you would need a high rate of speed (20k+RPM?) to maintain the (...) (26 years ago, 4-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
