I'm sure I've read there are 3 motor ports, and 4 sensor ports.  But, things may not
be that black and white.  Remember, each motor has a rotation sensor built in.

However, the pictures do show motors connected to port A, B & C, and sensors
connected to port 1,2,3 & 4.  (letters vs numbers)

(...) Amuzingly, "4" is missing from Lego's model images (which are rendered) but is there for the live teenager shots. Could it be a "special" plug for the ultrasonic sensor? I hope not. (18 years ago, 11-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)
