REF: Fischertechnik as building components for robots


Greetings,

We considered using Fischertechnik for building our
robots but unfortunately, they occupy more or less
the same volume as LEGO parts and our robots had to
be small (first within a 12 cm^2 circunference, then
inside a 3-inch cube), so we shipped them back.

Not having size limitations anymore, we have ordered
Meccano (TM) kits (aka Erector set).

We'll keep you posted on the development of the inves-
tigation.
