| It's just an ordinary motor after you modify it to take out the feedback device, and you have no idea of where it is pointing at any time. Maybe you could have the robot turn in a circle to find the beacon? Or use a small stepper motor? You can (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| (...) Hi all, why so complicated ? Use a pair of gears to double the turn ability. We had the same problem (to find a beacon) and succesfully build it. I guess you don't have to be 1 degree accurate, or ?? I think 2 degrees will work. (You don't (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| Thanks guys(Rainer and Gary) for your valuble ideas. i think i will go with the Rainer's method because of the simpicity(only one motor). any way i designed my sensor module for beacon finding long back with three sensors. so now i got confidence (...)
