New Robot

This robot is called the Triclo-tank, its a wierd name for a robot, but its the best I have made up. this is my latest robot project, what this robot is supposed to do is drive until the touch sensor senses an object, when it does, it will make the robot turn. Meanwhile, the robot would use the sensor (the black one on the same side of the launcher) would be used in defense of itself, basically, if it sees an object around 10 CM, it will shoot one ball out of its launcher. Its rather simple, but it has a VERY complicated system. You can go here to see the rest of the robot pictures. 

sadly though, I had to take apart the EFORSB, I didn't and still don't know how to program the new sensor, so I had to take it apart to make an even smaller robot for less hassle; and the EFORSB was a little to bulky. 

Movie(s) will be coming soon...

New google Groups

I made a new google groups, the group is called "NXT/RCX group" and you can post anything from RCXs to NXTs. I made the groups specifically Mindstorm users, so if you can, spread the word. thanks

New set

I recently got a new set, it is called the "Thunder Driller" from the Power Miners theme. It was Neat, but... It could have more pieces, and the plastic wheels may be useful in someway, they might make a good carpet patrol robot. Anyways, the set had a lot of unique parts, and Will be used for future robots. Plenty of pieces... though it can have more, I would recommend it to NXT-users as well as lego power miner fans, because this set was more technical than I thought it was. Now you know my opinion and the little on what this set has.
