This is my second day ever with the Lego Mindstorms NXT set. Great fun!

Don't try to find the heli in the catalogs: it was my own idea.

  • Hey! That's cool! I saw some occupied sensor ports, but I only noticed the light sensor for the LED, and the (invisible) sound sensor. Did you use the touch, ultra sonic, or other type of sensor to detect wether or not is was on the ground? If you have not integrated this already (if you did sorry for not noticing), then it would be cool to use a HiTechnic Gyroscopic or Accelerometer sensor to make it play other sounds and react to tilting while it's in the air. Nice project anyway.

  • @HaydenStudios Thank you for visiting me! It's been a long time ago: as far as i can remember it was the touch sensor. I just bought the base box set: I had no money then to spend on those fancy sensors :)

You need one motor and gears to make a counter rotation(or else it just spins wildly). And you need big scoop shaped pieces for blades. You must get an extra long wire or a wire extender because you need the nxt brick separately(or else it will be too heavy). You can add other motors to make t turn also. It's re
