  Re: using PWM output to control Lego motors
 
PWM for servo pulse is on a three wire system (Pos, Neg, and data). The pulse is a series of different length square waves sent to the servo or ESC in a certain length of time. This pulse is then translated by the servo or ESC as a "position" it (...) (20 years ago, 2-Feb-05, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

SNIPPIFIED! Wow Anders!!! FANTASTIC TRUCK! It's neat that you posted this, my own 10-wide Lamborghini Countach is nearing completion and it rocks!

  using PWM output to control Lego motors
 
In my ongoing quest to control Lego robots by radio, I've uncovered some receivers made by GWS that work with a standard model airplane transmitter, and have 4 channels of standard PWM (pulse-width modulation) output. For example, see (URL). But now (...) (20 years ago, 2-Feb-05, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

Gaasedal- That's a very good truck! I wish I had those type of building skills (and thatmany legos)! You are really talented! (20 years ago, 2-Feb-05, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic, FTX)

Hi everyone, Here is my latest creation (URL) This is my second large scale truck. It has been quite fun to built it, and I have used a lot of new colors on the model. It is a model of a Danish custom truck from the Danish hauler Henrik Guldager in (...) (20 years ago, 2-Feb-05, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.technic, FTX) !!

  Re: Two new mountain bikes
 
Cool! That BMW suspension does exist on some real MTB's but you kknow that already right? Not to fond of the pedals and the saddle is not very accurate I'm afraid. Barends is not that common on full suspension bikes either, but that comes down to (...) (20 years ago, 1-Feb-05, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: Looking for a one-way motor drive mechanism that is foolproof.
 
Well, I want to make sure that the drive mechanism doesn't accidentally try to start the wrong way, and try to either feed material into the hopper base, which is hard to clean out if I have to make it easily removable, or jam and stall the motor (...) (20 years ago, 1-Feb-05, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: Lego RC set 8369

  Looking for a one-way motor drive mechanism that is foolproof.
 
I want to drive a conveyor belt which will be feeding items from a hopper, however, I want to make a small mechanism which will, if the motor is switched on with it's output shaft spinning in the wrong direction, automatically turn the spin around (...) (20 years ago, 1-Feb-05, to lugnet.technic)
