  Re: 2003 Technic sets appear to be released...
 
(...) Toys R Us nor John Lewis had anything last week. Becky (21 years ago, 16-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: spider walker
 
(...) Thanks, I'm really happy with it. (...) Actually, its path curves slightly to the left. The body's center of gravity needed to be kept near the leg driver attachment points to minimize its momentum of rotation both forward and to the sides. As (...)

  Re: EGAD! (pneumatics)
 
(...) Yes, the switches would need to remember their last set state. Ideally, this would be done through the use of electric pneumatic switches which, when not receiving any power, simply stay in the last position they were set in. If this isn't (...)

  Re: EGAD! (pneumatics)
 
(...) IMHO, it would be much simpler and precise to measure directly pulse width instead of voltage, that could be done easily with a small microcontroller... Philo www.philohome.com (21 years ago, 16-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: MOC - Small Pneumatic Biped Walker
 
(...) Hi Paul, I use a electronic schematic style when drawing out my pneumatic circuit designs these days. The combination of a piston that is linke to a pneumatic switch is simply a box, with X and C on the left edge, representing the eXpand and (...)

  Re: EGAD! (pneumatics)
 
(...) When using LEGO's firmware and NQC the maximum number of power levels you have is 8 (plus off?), so the most you can identiy is 9. This of course presumes that current draw by your compressor's motors doesn't mess with the voltage going into (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Blacktronicle II: Bohrokitron
 
After building the first one, I couldn't resist making one using the Bohrok frame, since I already knew it was possible. I borrowed the basic concept from Paul Coombs' Gremlin, but the construction is completely original, though it borrows a bit (...)

  Re: spider walker
 
(...) Now if it could only turn corners.... BTW, those Brickshelf URLs (with ?i=xxx) are not available until after moderation either - you need to link one level deeper, like you did with the MPG URL. Regards ROSCO (21 years ago, 16-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.build, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: All-Out Lego Drag Racing
 
(...) Heh... you haven't seen the size of my rubber bands. (evil grin) For the speed I can get on small LEGO vehicles, let's just say that it's not entirely safe for me to launch them indoors. I can pretty much guarantee that a simple and light (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: EGAD! (pneumatics)
 
(...) I was thinking that one could just use an ADC to directly convert the analog voltage level to a digital number of however many bits you could resolve it to and then taking that binary number to address a demux and have the demux's outputs (...)
