Several measures to increase traction for the 12v trains do not present in the 9v trains, for example the serrated tracks, the rubber bands on wheels, and the inclusion of weight bricks in the locomotive. Does it mean a 12v locomotive can pull a lot (...) (25 years ago, 23-Dec-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) No matter who sets up your domain, you'll still have to pay internic $35 a year to keep your domain registered (your first bill will be $70 for the first 2 years). As for site hosting, I've found Interland (www.interland.net) to be about as (...) (25 years ago, 23-Dec-99, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.org, lugnet.trains.org)

Yeah, I can bring track, trains, maybe some buildings, but I just don't know if I'll have the spare bricks/money to build a proper module. Is there a web page online for tips for building modules? Do they HAVE to be all Lego except the base, or can (...) (25 years ago, 23-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.trains)

(...) The timers run at 1/10 sec, but granularity for "waiting" a task is 1/100 sec. The PWM used for motor output has granularity of 1/1000 sec. Dave Baum p.s. I hope it wasn't my book that stated 1/10 and 1/1000 - if so could you e-mail me the (...) (25 years ago, 23-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)

(...) It is 1/10 of a second for the timers. However, in case you don't know. The RCX's Motor ports PULSE their signal. They always put out the same voltage. At level 8 it's 100% at level 4 it's an even on/off. I use it for my trains and it's great. (...) (25 years ago, 23-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)

(...) I -know- that the train would not make it with HEP only through a curve like that. My upper level is a straight oval, about 25 straights each side. The figures I have seen seem to indicate that a 10 Degree curve has as much drag added as a .3 (...) (25 years ago, 23-Dec-99, to lugnet.trains)

Hi All, Since I am and train head I don't read .RCX (this topic might be well exhausted) I just read thru a third party book on the RCX and in one place he said the timer granularity in 1/10 sec and in another it was 1/1000 sec. My goal is to pulse (...) (25 years ago, 23-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)
