Cybermaster now available in holland
cybermaster costs 399 dutch guilders here +/- $200.
The cybermaster is all in the style of lego competition there are no printed instrucktions, only on cd-rom more scans and my review can be expected some times next week, as i will be building some models first. So be sure to add this page to your bookmarks ;)
a Bug
the brick can be programmed with radio signals send by a transmitter box, and can also be controlled using the cd-rom that came with cybermaster. using a joystick or keyboard when programming the brick, i found the first computer-bug. when programming the third motor that is not build into the brick you can use the joystick buttons, but that way it won't be stored in to memory, so be sure to use the alt and control keys for programming this motor
Sensors
First of all there are 3 sensors, wich are transparent
in the middle of the
redbrick between the
connection you can
see a resistance
these 3 sensors are colour coded and have a litle resistance
build in to them so the legobrick knows wich one is pressed
it therefore does not matter where on the 3 connections it
is connected. this limmets the possibility to connect 2 or
more sensors to one connection like on the barcode truck.
On one model this is used to connect 3 differend tools on
a waggon. once connected, the computerknows what tool is
connected.
when 2 or 3 sensors are pressed simultaniously, it is a mistery to me wich program executes first. sometimes at the same time, i will check this sometime to see if there is some logic in it. if somebody knows it mail me.
New lego-technic parts
There are 2 tracks with 8 track wheels, the outline
measure 40.5 cm and is large in my opinion:
