(...) I like this idea a lot. It sounds very good to me. (...) I agree. Very cool. (...) Assymetry in the leg length might make some legs hold more weight than others, making it harder to lock. (...) Kevin (20 years ago, 4-May-04, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Now, I have a question about the "logic" behind walking sideways. When SSClagorpion is done walking sideways, and it starts walking forward, will the legs all be in the same position in/out, or will 1/2 be in, while 1/2 are out? Assuming the (...) (20 years ago, 4-May-04, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I just came up with an idea for how to make the legs work. It should make it so the pneumatic cylinder doesn't have to support the weight of the creature. The idea is to have the legs "lock" into place, when they are down. Think about the legs (...) (20 years ago, 4-May-04, to lugnet.technic)

| | Universal Joint Modifications for Train Applications
|
|
Has anyone modified a universal joint? Was your modified part successful? I find that the uni joints are too long for certain train applications. I propose to take a broken uni joint (the axle holding parts break at the ends), and do the following (...) (20 years ago, 4-May-04, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.trains)

(...) If I remember correctly (haven't had my RC out for a few months), 1 & 2 go together. That is, the two small pedals control any output that is connected to the gray power connector. As for attaching mini-motors, I have done that without having (...) (20 years ago, 4-May-04, to lugnet.technic)

I’ve just received my first Lego RC set, 8366. I have a few questions: 1. The remote control has two small pedals, what are there for? 2. The battery/receiver unit has a gray power connector, what is it for? 3. Is it possible to connect the standard (...) (20 years ago, 4-May-04, to lugnet.technic)
