... BreadBoard is notorious for bad connections if everything isn't pushed fully home. I threw away a small beadboard a while back because age had got the...
Thanks for that, Charles. Those props look fantastic! I really must look at building a vacuumforming table one day (or at least attempting to build one). Great...
Are your sensors crossed over? I mean, is what should be the 'left eye' on the right-hand-side, and vice versa? This would make it go towards the dark....
Hi Jo. I think that was the problem. I'll be more carefull when I rebuild it. I also found that pin 14 and 13(74hc14) were slightly touching (down falls of...
Hello all! 'Just finished making a page for my dozer bot. Enjoy! http://haroldsbeambugs.solarbotics.net ...Harold. P.S. I'll make some video clips of it when I...
Hi Harold. Yes that answered my questions and gave me some good ideas as to what to look for at the 2ndHand store. thank you. Moon walker is one of the first...
No problem Jab, you're welcome anytime! Hey, please check out my newly made page for my dozer. Lots of pics but I'm still making some video clips. 'Hope to...
Hi. I like the page, very good pics as all ways. the motor wheels set up is very helpfull. What is the circuit with the 74ac240 and 10uf caps on the back of...
Hey man! Thanks! The 74AC240 you've seen is a free-formed circuit just to make the bot stop and go. This circuit came from the circuit of Scoutwalker 2.2 from...
Cool. thanks. ... circuit ... 10uf ... my ... I ... entertaining. ... Cool ... again ... most ... motor ... in ... mostly ... right ... (I ... with ... things ...
Thanks, Ludo. Jo's suggestion did the trick, but I have to work through the description of the circuit you referenced. I found spsh5 in Wilf's directory. Let...
Thanks for patiently talking this through, Jo. Reducing the 10M resistor on the base of the 2N3904 to 7.5M brought the voltage requirement down to 2.6V. Scott...
Hi. I found the Tritium S.E.at coastarica BEAM circuits and at solarbotics.net., and looked it up in the old posts. it seems to have gone the way of the dodo...
Hi Jim, The Picaxes certainly aren't as powerful or quick as a raw Pic or AVR, as the preprogrammed interpreter takes up space and limits the speed, but their...
I believe it had reliability problems. See Wilf's analysis here: http://www.solarbotics.net/library/circuits/se_t3_tritium.html It seems Wilf's misgivings were...
Yep. we've come full circle. Thanks Jo. I've read this befor. Just wondering what happened to it. It seems some things come and stay (FRED, And others), and...
Yep. It was staring me in the face and I didn't see it. http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/beam/files/Jo%20C/AnotherFSDozer!.GIF Very simple full speed Dozer....
Hi Jo. Is'nt that where the first Dozer was born from the SC head? No way will I try to stop you from coming up with these cool bots and mods. Thanks Jo. ...
Hi Jo, currently I'm undecided on a path to follow: I like the idea of their simple programming language but I think a decent compiler could do just as good a...

Sorry I dont think this post is really related to anything but I have to tell someone who may understand (mention robots around here and people think you need...
hi Jim. yes "Adapt or die" is the way of things. As for build time I'm verry lucky to have a great family who encurage me to "build my dreams". And as a stay...
Ah, Jim, that's a nice post. It's often amazing what insights someone totally removed from a problem can provide. Say g'day to her from me! Cheers, Jo...
You're obviously far more experienced than me in these matters, Jim, so I'll spare you my advice! :) I've been playing with a 16F628a Pic for the last few...
Hi Groups, Got a question. What component influences the time of the reverser? is it the resistor or the capacitor? i want to make the dozer bot turn 180...
