You all need to get out and smell the nitro
Nitromethane that is. I build and fly R/C model airplanes. Their isn't anything to compare to building an airplane and than to go out and see it fly. I currently have four planes, including one gasser. I have a Cub, a Spitfire, a sport plane and an Airtrax GS (gasser). Gasser is slang for a plane that uses a gas engine for propulsion.

Did you ever notice that Lego and Duplo fit together?
I always had fun combining the two and building HUGE things in my hall way...Altho once I go so hight (i think around 7 or 8 feet) it tipped over...the stuff just wasnt tight/strong enough to go higher than that... |

I even made a model (working, of course) of last years robot, down to the chains on the drive. Its amazingly complex: with the proper knowledge, you can mesh worm gears, make camshafts raise claws, etc, etc. That's what drew me in: the complexity. Harrison - invest in LEGO chains, and conveyer chains. They are great to make tracks/treads, and link drive gears. Order them from a company called PITSCO. They're really nice, and send you a free catalogue. I think I may have allowed some PITSCO staffers to retire early, from all the stuff I've ordered (seriously)There's only one problem with mindstorms: only 3 motor outputs! Of course you can stack em, but i want 4 indie motors two for drive, two for claws) and yes, I know how to use the differential, it doesnt work that well for high-load robots.Wow, let this be a lesson to you all: never ask a Mindstorms lunatic about his(or her) habit - i mean, hobby ![]() |
