  Text Based Programming for NXT - pbLua is Available
 
All, For those of you that have been asking the question: "When will we get a simple text-based programming environment for the NXT?" I can now announce the availability of pbLua Beta 1 at: (URL) This is an implementation of Lua 5.1 for the NXT, and (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt) !

  Electromagnetic device
 
Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to use a electromagnetic device with the RCX and NXT. I tried with this one from a disk drive, and it worked quite well, but a few seconds after it start, the RCX shows the "low battery" icon. (The batteries are (...)
