Subject: [alt-beam] 4 motor walkers
Hello,
I was wondering what the better 4 motor walker is, a styder type or the
type with the horizontal motors as the scout walker 2 will be. I am looking
to know what one is more able in complex terrain, light seeking, has more
character, and just plain cooler.
thanks
Steve

sensors, or any sensor for that matter. For touch sensors, whatcha do is go
by a monural phone-jack, and monoral phone plug. Hook it up so the jack is in
like the touch sensor, then use the put a touch sensor on the open end of the
plug, this way you can plug in and out your touch sensor! Have fun!

motor, and it turns fine by hand. Thanks anyway Rob!
