With the sun getting ever stronger as the season progresses, the solar panel now gives close to 9 watts at 2 in the afternoon, and I suspect this will go even higher... The lego motor is thinking of going on a strike or even dying though...It (...) (22 years ago, 13-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)

I recently built a R904 wheeled excavator. Yes, it's a small one if you put it net to the R974 or Evert's R954. The reason it built that one is because I wanted a small machine to load it on the drawbar trailer behind the 6x6 man. (URL) haven't put (...)

| | Helicopter rotor in 8856... unrealistic?
|

Hi all, If any of you have seen the 8856's rotor, the whole thing is tilted by use of the flex system. But from what I've read from the net (and a coworker who claims to know about real helicopters), it doesn't work that way at all. Since english is (...) (22 years ago, 13-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)
