This whole AC vs battery thing is getting crazy. RCX Version In effect, we’ve already discussed this ages ago and the outcome was that as long as its lego then no problem...we don’t discriminate against certain lego parts.

(...) I wonder if some of this is "advanced" I don't recall? do you have any RCX's?? I know that if you don't have one, then all of this talk can seem a bit confusing. I wonder; if you plan on running 2 rcx's (for the 4 motors) then do what you had (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Chris- So I have to use two touch sensors and two light sensors to operate four motors (I read in an earlier message that to control four motors, one has to use two RCX bricks). When using the light sensors, what should I do? (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

People- This joystick controller idea is for a mammoth crane (Demag AC 500-1 SSL, for more info check out the Terex-Demag website, look under literature, and click on the Demag AC 500-1).
