I wish I could...but, right now I am commuting 110 miles for work to a new job and the week of PDX I will be at a convention in Las Vegas... so life is pretty crazy ...but, you never know, maybe a midwest robot design will show up in the (...)

(...) Thanks for the suggestion, but this was carefully considered before the rules were drafted. If someone has an RCX and wants to enter a robot competition, they are very welcome to enter the Robotic Easter Egg Hunt (URL). While I'm sure that an (...)

(...) All the pics should be visible now, at (URL) large motors have 2 half-depth pin recesses on opposite sides. They are designed primarily for a Technic beam interface because of their high torque - other models might fall apart! I held them in (...)

(...) Dave, We just had a sumo contest last weekend in Fort Wayne - the Northeast Indiana Robot Games.

Your best bet is to post this request on the CEEO web site. Someone there will surely answer. AFAIK, it's intended to be supported in all environments. (18 years ago, 28-Feb-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Man, I'm excited. A few design flaws I can't understand though: Why the cable nub coming out of the cable's brick? There has to have been a way to avoid that. On the large motor, why all that wasted space on the drkGry part that could have pin (...) (18 years ago, 28-Feb-07, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Does anyone know what versions of Robolab support the RCX Control Pad? I have tried it with RoboLab 2.5, 2.54B & C, and 2.9. In all cases Robolab hangs or I get VI execution errors. I want to use this for an outreach project where school chirdren (...) (18 years ago, 28-Feb-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Thank you! I like the small(er) size of the motors; do the large motors also have a stud recesses down one side?

What also I find awkward is that we now have (...) (18 years ago, 28-Feb-07, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)
