Subject: [alt-beam] Update on the usefullness of my gearmotors?
Remeber those gearmotors I'm selling for $11 each? Well, I must say they wo=
rk very nicely for walkers. It's even conviceable that they would work in s=
ome sort of solar powered bot. Although, small nicads would probably be bet=
ter than caps in this case. =
Anyway, people had expressed concern, thinking that they wouldn't be very g=
ood for mechanical feedback. But they are wrong, in opperation the motors h=
ave nice amounts of torque, but respond quite well to mechanical resistance=
such as springs. It's also possible that they allow the core to respond to=
'feedback' better than had been surmised. Anyway, in the comming months, t=
his summer I think, I'll give a great expose of a whole bunch of bots I've =
been working on. But untill then.
P.S.
If your interested in the purchase of the gearmotors send a check to:
Remeber to e-mail me first about your order. And that the motors cost $11 e=
ach, (US dollars) and shipping is two dollars for the first two motors, and=
then fifty cents for each additional motor.
Happy beaming!
