| (...) I'm guessing the user base outside Japan must be tiny. But for what it is worth, I've purchased two pocket stations on ebay after reading your post ;-) (one of them for my younger brother). I'm mostly looking forward to do some micro-scout (...) (22 years ago, 13-Mar-03, to lugnet.robotics.microscout)
| | | | | Good news for microscout, scout, and rcx, and sony pocket station owners.
|
| I already posted this in lugnet.robotics Maybe i will get a response here. I found a web page that deals with programming the rcx, scout and microscout in a very uncommon way. Go this site: (URL) under the ¡ SONY Pocket Station ‚Æ‹Y‚ê‚é section, (...) (22 years ago, 13-Mar-03, to lugnet.robotics.microscout)

| | | | | Microscout and IR
|
| I was reading stuff about the Microscout that said it's light sensor would not pick up IR light; however, I decided to try it out for myself. Using mode 3 (as the easiest one to check), I started it running, and then pointed the remote from my DVD (...) (23 years ago, 21-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.microscout)
| | | | | Re: Microscout assembly?
|
| Hmm... Well, you could try www.mindstorms.com (or whatever it is) and look fo the configuration. I remember looking around that side and seeing some diagrams and shematics. I have that set too, and I have no intentions of taking it apart (lucily) (...) (23 years ago, 16-May-02, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.microscout)
| | | | | Re: Microscout assembly?
|
| The only thing that comes to mind is that the metal strips are acting like brushes to connect the power to the commutator of the motor. I opened one of mine and fear restrained me from entering too far. The battery connections are direct to the PC (...) (23 years ago, 11-May-02, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.microscout)
| | | | | Microscout assembly?
|
| One day, while there was nothing to do, I took apart my Microscout (came with the R2D2 droid development kit, or whatever). I had no idea how the motor assembly was connected to the rest of the unit, so this was probably a bad idea. Anyway, I took (...)

| | | | | The MicroScout's Script mode is VERY disapointing...
|
| I wrote a very small message to VLL converter with the Scout so that I could play around with my 3 MicroScouts. The direct actions are useful but the script mode is pointless. WHY O WHY did LEGO make it play a stupid song BEFORE each motor action??? (...) (23 years ago, 5-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.microscout, lugnet.robotics.scout, lugnet.robotics.vll)
| | | | | Re: DDK R2D2

| Thanks! I was running program 1. Actually, the motion on all of the programs is similar. I put the droid together following the instructions carefully, I just expected it to walk forward in a straight line, and instead it turns in circles. I guess (...)

| (...) Greets! If the mechanics are fine, check to see which of the built-in programs the micro-scout is running: there are seven to choose from; some of which respond to environmental light (such as a flashlight in his eyes ;-) Cheers!

| Basic question: I assembled the second robot in the DDK, the R2D2 looking droid, and it moves in circles, not in straight lines. Did I do something wrong, or is that what it's supposed to do? (23 years ago, 6-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.microscout)
