This seems strange. On the catalogue ad, the vehicle was surrounded by
several double-height 2*4's, each with a different no. on it (10, 30, 50).
This suggested to me that they were frequency crystals (with the number in
kHz), which could be swapped in and out, giving the opportunity for races.


Hehe, I'm afraid their real use is far less technical than that :-)   No,
they are used for various single-player "games" and represent a number of
points for navigating around the brick, knocking it over, whatever.


It's a shame the components don't separate out. I was eager to grab one,
hook it up to six technic motors, and make a really cool all-terrain
vehicle. Nuts.


Nuts indeed. You'll just have to wait for the "Joystick Command" expansions
set for Mindstorms.... ;-)
