I think it is called a "clutch" gear. It is used in place of a regular gear when the gear train that it is in may get locked up. It will then slip, which will prevent damage to the motor. I imagine it has other uses too... -HTH -Andy Lynch ----- (...) (25 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hello! There is a part in my RIS set which i have never used. Nor can I think of what it could be used for, or describe it without using words like "weird" and "what the". It's a thick white gear, 1 stud wide by three studs in diameter. One one (...) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Thank you very much! I think your utilities are evry useful! I don't know more about music, so I wan to ask you, if you can convert MIDI to NQC, why didn't you also convert WAV to NQC?

This has been asked many times before, and while it seems like it should be possible in theory, it's not possible in practice.
