Hallo to everyone first, sorry to all language purists, it's not my native language. I like treaded vehicles so i built very simple one using rubber treads from RIS 1.5 set. ( actually it was "tank" very similar to "dozer" from RIS 1.0, but without (...) (23 years ago, 11-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Very nice design. I don't have access to old style pneumatic cylinders, but was thinking of doing something similar with the new double acting cylinders. Because I don't have a check valve in the new pneumatics that would allow me to store vacuum, I (...) (23 years ago, 10-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Very cool. Should be able to do it with two motors. I wonder how he sync's the left and right feet. It doesn't look like any sensors are used, or am I missing the wires? I am inspired. P.S. I was also inspired by hammerhead. Since I only had the 9v (...) (23 years ago, 10-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build)

Hi all, This new robot by Joe Nagata integrates so many solutions in such a simple design that I have little doubt it will be as instantly inspiring to many of you as it has been to me.

To be honest, if I went looking for something called the Technic MOTM, I'd probably go to ldraw.org first to find it. So, I think you can call it what you want, but something else might be better. "MoTEC" just sounds so cool, how can you resist? (...) (23 years ago, 8-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

I actually think L-Draw is in the wrong here. They use the 'MOTM' meaning Model of the Month..we all know that. My case is, Lego is used to create 'Models'.. L-Draw is a cad, graphics system, which in my eys does not create lego models at all. You (...) (23 years ago, 8-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)
