Ever wanted to add a video to your post? Now you can! I've added the "youtube" tag to the BBCode list. It's easy to use, just use it like this:

Code: Select all

[youtube]sayLbS5vH88[/youtube]
and it will appear in your post as follows:



Pretty cool, eh? However, don't go all crazy and add like 10 videos to your post, just one or two. This will come in handy when you want to show off your cool project. Please ensure that it's at least NXT related and not a video you shot of your cat eating a cheeseburger.

That is a cool idea. Thanks for adding support.

Don't worry, I am sure you won't see a video of ME feeding a cat a cheeseburger. :? maybe a video of one of our cats eating a chipmunk or rabbit though :mrgreen: :lol:

Looking at that video, I can't work out why you're using a gyro and a compass. I found a compass alone to be fine in my omnidirectional robot.

The compass was not used in the program in the video, just the gyro.

Hey Xander, I was wondering, what happens when you click on the button that says
the computer wrote:Locked
Since there has been a thread to replace this one, can you lock this thread so that I can see what happens when I try clicking on it? I don't think that it would be appropriate to do it on threads that are locked for a reason. Or, if my whole request is out of the question, then that's fine.
