Block_Smarts Lego Technic Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 I was browsing Bricklink and found this!? What is it!? Quote
Sariel Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) It's WeDo part which lets you connect other WeDo stuff to your computer. This includes motors, so yes, you can run motors from a computer, but don't expect miracles because USB provides only 5V, so motors are barely working. I did a few projects with WeDo a few years ago, but for most part it felt like poor man's NXT. The software is very limiting in what you can program, and low voltage makes motors' performance frustrating (running more than one at a time is a miracle). Here: Edited July 8, 2015 by Sariel Quote

Block_Smarts Lego Technic Posted July 8, 2015 Author Posted July 8, 2015 Woah Cool! Did you think about using those in your USS Sulaco for special effects? Quote
Sariel Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Probably not. I will be using blue lights in it, not red. Quote
