  She said these kind of PCB do it yourself stuff should be able to find... Have to ask the shopowner...

  ok thanks!!
  
  i'm taking part in the robotic games this year

  PCB board...
  
  What's that actually??? Is it something that can be used as a remote ctrl?

  good luck with the robotic thing... what is the task of the robot?
  
  if it's destruction or mayhem, i know i can help

  Is it just a board...
  
  But with components like I/C chips and sort soldered?

  actually we're gonna cheat....ssshh dun tell anyone else....we're gonna buy a submarine robot and then make it look like ITE made one.
  
  the robot gonna go underwater and pick up nuts using electromagnetism

  it's just a board, I/C chip and all those have to solder yourself

  it has to be a submarine?
  
  or just a water-craft?
• sbst275

  I think it's submarine
  
  Metal items sink in water

  Now reminds me...
  
  So you found the voltmeter?
• the Bear

  13 Dec 06, 21:44

  ballast tanks, compressed air to let it float again...
  
  other than that, you need a lot of volume.. else if neutral bouyancy, you may get into problems when it picks up the sunk things.. your neutral bouyancy is lost...

• sbst275

  Which one is better?

  why is it that our chee bye gahmen's solution to every single mother fucking problem is to raise fees/costs/taxes?
  
  when was the last time they lowered prices for anything?

  What are they jacking up this time?
  
  Hmmm.... the impression I got on my most recent visit to Singapore was that the economy there was doing exceptionally well. Everyone seemed to be rolling in cash (I don't think I've seen so many BMWs on the road!), and I don't think too many people would complain at a reasonable fee/cost/tax hike.
  
  Or am I mistaken?

  why pick up one at a time when you can use an electromagnet to pick them all up at the same time?

  that is the robotic game's requirements, must move then spin pick up one nut move to drop the nut then spin, move...pick up nut.....blah..blah..
