Does anyone recall seeing such an article or > have some recommendations regarding where a schematic could be obtained? I built this kit and used in on top of a modified Milton Bradley Big Trak as a simple project in turtle building. The schematic was in Steve Ciarcia's "Circuit Cellar" about a year or so ago. It would be in Byte's index, and maybe in one of the later volumes of Steve's Circuit Cellar compilation books. I bought the actual kit from Micromint, the company that supplies parts and kits for a lot of the cellar projects. They advertise every month in Byte. By the way....it worked!!! It was pretty darn neat!! -- Dave "mr question " McIntyre seismo!rpics!mcintyre mcintyre@csv.rpi.edu
