(...) Fair enough... you mean one where you can use modified bricks for water-tight enclosures? I really would love to move into the even riskier option of true submarines... Or do you mean the modified *combat* class, that allows (nay, encourages!) (...) (17 years ago, 14-Nov-08, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.boats)

(...) Thanks - like you said, simple sometimes tends to be a good approach, and while I only had the red hulls there wasn't a lot of mass budget to "overbuild". (...) That I *completely* understand.

(...) Very nice; I like your design! Since it was our first challenge, we figured we still needed someone in the pool, just in case something went wrong... We had one boat capsized, one boat take on too much water, & a few circle out of control. (...) (17 years ago, 14-Nov-08, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Cool. Although since the festival takes place at Downtown Disney, I think you really should have had a race across the entire lake. Serenity could handle it: (URL) I've got the 2.0 version (using two blue hulls... and mounting a camera that (...) (17 years ago, 14-Nov-08, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.robotics)

(...) Robolab comes with the RCX firmware and I agree it will probably be a lot easier to grasp for your son than NXC/NBC. The advantage of the latter though is that it is completely free. Since you have a serial tower you'll need to load whatever (...) (17 years ago, 24-Oct-08, to lugnet.robotics)
