Subject: [alt-beam] Re: stiquito & solarengine?
I don't think anyone has tried it and I can't see why anyone would (no offence). Stequito is the muscle wire powered robot is it not? If so, then I don't see any point because it would require a HUGE cap, and it would drain it very quickly. Muscle wire requires a lot of current.
