If you fitted an anti-jack-knifing mechanism you could get some control through reverse steering too. Then again, you (...) (19 years ago, 22-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| Did anyone answer this for you? I am not an expert by any means but heres my opinion. No and Yes (maybe). As it comes in the box there is not a power jack so
No. If you buy the battery pack and charger, you could theoretically have it plugged in (...) (10 years ago, 5-Dec-14, to lugnet.robotics)

| | Re: looking for RCX v1.0
|
| Thanks to everyone who offered to get or look for sets. The best solution of all came from Ralph H. who suggested I call Spectrum (in Aurora) 905-841-0600 After saving all my pennies I discovered that I had most of the $360 I needed to buy a RIS (...)

It has far too many difficult issues for them to use it. If we (...) (24 years ago, 6-Dec-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

| | Re: IR Collision avoidance
|
| The Handyboard has a circuit (U7a, R4, C6) that generates a 38KHz signal. That drives an amplifier that then goes to J7, the IR LED output. If you hookup an IR LED to this jack (with a series resistor) then when you turn on TOC2 using ir_xmit_on() (...) (28 years ago, 24-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
