2.3. Axles
Axles are manufactured from a brass rod. Two pairs of axles are needed, each with a length of
24.5 mm and 42.0 mm respectively. These axes are suplied in correct length with this kit.
2.4. Wheel sensors
The odometer, consisting of a light emitting diode and a phototransistor, looks forward to the black
and white markers on the 50/10 cogwheel.
A complete set of adhesive odometer markers is supplied with this kit. Place them on to the
50/10 gear as shown in  g. 2.3.
Using the sensor-markers with 6 black and white segments is
recommended for compatibility for compatibility with other ASURO’s (demo programs).
The more segments you draw, the better the cogspeed may be registrated and the better speed
control will work. However, a great number of segments reduces the difference between light and
dark (see  g.2.4).
