Hi all,
I noticed that the box for the <set:8860> car chassis has a scissors lift.
The scans of the instructions on brickshelf:
http://www.brickshelf.com/scans/8000/8860/
however, do not have any instructions for the scisssors lift. Was there a
second book in the box or was this just a suggestion on the box?
I have trying to build a scissors lift robot (really just using the RCX for
remote control) but I am having problems with powering the lifting action.
I can't get enough power to lift any thing substantial (more than 4 layers
of X's). I am using a mechanism similar to:
http://carol.wins.uva.nl/~leo/lego/piston.html
but the model just wants to fall apart or the motor just stops and hums.
TIA,
Bob
