I can ride my bike with handlebars

German AFOL leggor has already amazed us, Technic lovers some time ago, with his Power Functions steering wheel design. Now, he went even further using two Mindstorms NXT units to control a simple motorbike. His creation almost gives the feeling of driving a real bike - it provides steering control with the handlebar, speed control with the throttle, as well as a reverse drive trigger. We can appreciate the advantage of the NXT system, that provides the analogue steering option - something very difficult to create with the currently available PF elements.

    No to Leggorowi został do zrobienia jeszcze zdalnie sterowany samolot z lego XD A tak na poważnie, to co on jeszcze może wymyśleć? (chodzi mi o zdalne sterowanie)

    fajne! Widać ze się zna :) szkoda że motor tak powoli jeździ.
    Co do modeli motorów to widziałem takie zdalnie sterowane, pięknie jeżdżą i mają motocyklistów którzy balansują na zakrętach, no i motor nie ma dodatkowych podpórek.

    Pozdrawiam
