  Re: The grand challenge
 
Was it last year or the year before that the big competition was the underater robot which had to navigate thru some sort of course. IIRC, the MIT team came in first, but their 'bot cost some outrageous amount--and the second place team used 2 RCX's (...) (21 years ago, 16-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  RE: The grand challenge

  Problem with lego pneumatic parts
 
Hi, I am looking for some lego pneumatic parts, such as the pistons, cylinder and the T-connectors for connecting the tubes.

  RE: The grand challenge
 
Yeah... The only two team got the farthest, ~ 7 miles from the starting point. They both got stuck in gravel embankment, front wheel spun and could not get out. According to some insider info, speculation indicates the possible errors in the GPS (...) (21 years ago, 13-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  OutputStatus
 
Hi! I think many of you wonder what results you get with the command OutputStatus(OUT_x). I have tested it and here are the results: SetPower | Float Fwd | Float Rev | Off Fwd | Off Rev | OnFwd | OnRev ---...--- 0 | 0 | 8 | 72 | 64 | 136 | 128 1 | 1 (...)
