| Actually, if this is your idea, i used to play w/water rockets when i was a
kid, but i don't know if any1 still sells them. It is a light plastic rocket
about 4-12" long, filled halfway w/water, & pumped w/air from the bottom, &
then launched by releasing the latch seal on the pump. It would certainly
move, but would expire pretty fast unless u could find a way of regulating it.
They were pretty cool, & just a wee bit dangerous if u hit sum1 w/them.
U might also consider the tank from a super-soaker water gun. They
expire slowly, & w/a little work u may be able to do what u want w/it.
Thats all for now.

| I was kind of looking at a twin hull "speed" boat design powered with the LEGO
props. Now I know that it might not go very fast, but it's just something that
I enjoy, remote control boats! I've never actually owned one, but a friend use
to build the model ones and race them a the park and I had a blast driving
them. So, I figured that I'd give it a shot making a "robot" boat! And being
able to control it.
