  Re: Quirks with advanced technic cars (4WD, steering, suspension)
 
(...) The 8880 Supercar has all-wheel steering so that both rear wheels turn less than the front ones. That's not quite the same as Ackerman correction, but it helps. I've seen Ackerman steering correction done in LEGO, but of course I can't find it (...) (17 years ago, 19-Sep-07, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: NXT's in Series
 
(...) Here's one way: Use NXC or NBC. Pair a secondary NXT to a the primary NXT on connection 1 using the menu system on the primary NXT. Control the outputs on the secondary NXT using RemoteSetOutputState in a program running on the primary NXT. (...) (17 years ago, 19-Sep-07, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Quirks with advanced technic cars (4WD, steering, suspension)
 
Hi, first post. I'm new here. I haven't been able to mentally sort out some issues with technic cars with suspension, drive and steering without using specialist parts from sets like 8880. Suspension-- Using wishbone suspension, the wheels moves (...) (17 years ago, 19-Sep-07, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: NXT's in Series
 
[Cross-posted to lugnet.robotics as it's on-topic there] (...) There's no absolutely transparent way to make a program running on one NXT address the sensor or motor ports of a 2nd (or 3rd, or 4th) NXT. However, a lot of solutions to this problem (...)

  NXT's in Series
 
OK, I've scoured the 'net for a good 90 seconds and can't find what I'm looking for. Here's what I'm trying to do: I have an application where I need at least four different outputs. The NXT only has three. Is there a way that I can easily chain two (...) (17 years ago, 17-Sep-07, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: best way to attach stud to axle?
 
Hi Daniel, (...) What about using a 1x1x5 brick ((URL) as cutting bit, while maintaining the sides of the top of the brick with some kind of chuck? Philo (17 years ago, 10-Sep-07, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: best way to attach stud to axle?
 
(...) well, the round plate between the studs probably won't come off, but anything attached to it will. i want to attach probably some sqare 1x1 plates or one 1x1 brick. the flex idea is not bad at all, but won't work for all bricks. all this is (...) (17 years ago, 5-Sep-07, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: best way to attach stud to axle?
 
(...) I'd definitely recommend it too, I've used that to open/close a minifig door very easily. I had also thought of using the axle with a stud at the end, coupled with a clickits ring, but that didn't offer as much clutch. (17 years ago, 4-Sep-07, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: best way to attach stud to axle?
 
(...) If you have enough lateral pressure to shift a 1x1 plate from between 4 studs, you almost certainly have enough lateral pressure to shift anything connected to the stud. How much space have you got depth wise? How about a 1x1 round brick onto (...) (17 years ago, 4-Sep-07, to lugnet.technic)
