Lego power supplies and motors
Burf2000 posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Hey there, I been meaning to ask this for a while. So, I read you should not really run more than 2 XL motors off a PF rechargeable battery, however how many should you run off a train controller / Dacta control Lab? What about if you had xl motors running off a nxt? Should you not run more than 2 at a time. I am trying to think of ways to power my robot better and it uses a lot of xl motors -
There are soo many models I want, I mean I got a fair collection but there must be over 100-200 models I want to build, i need a bigger house already. How do others manage the lego addiction lol

I actually want the eyes to change colour but switching modes on the sensor is slow, need to find a different way to do it Also, what would people suggest about the base of the robot / legs, to me its poo! Would people box it up? -

Diary of making a LEGO Humanoid
Burf2000 replied to Burf2000's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
It was a bit wobbly, on Sunday I stopped moving it about so much. However remember its 5 foot tall, the fact it never snapped is beyond me :) It could also move a lot faster on the floor but that caused even more wobbly I plan to do another video on what worked and what did not, the lower body (e.g the wobbly bit) was the bit I was most unhappy with. The arms and head worked perfectly :) I would like a rotating torso next :) -

Burf2000 replied to Burf2000's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Thanks for the feedback, So far I have only done structure so looks and improvements to come :) I am going to keep this going until people are not interested I will probably do a video of testing movement, arm, tablet, and head work. Then we can start looking in to the robot seeing things (OpenCV, PixyCam) Whats peoples views on either making a LEGO Head or one with a InMoov face (example below)
