Hello!



Is there a very accurate (max. +/-2=B0) compass sensor that can be used
with the RCX?


THANKS!
Raphael

Ther is a compassensor here:
http://www.hitechnicstuff.com/products.htm

But I don't know about the accurasy of it.

I have an early version that is pretty darned good, about +/- 3 degrees.
Not bad considering the inheirent inaccuracies and backlash/slop in Lego
gearing.  Refreshes pretty quickly and is quite responsive to direction
changes.  No problem even mounted on top of the RCX unit just an inch
above the motors.

Hi Dave! Three degrees sound acceptable. Can you buy this compass sensor somewhere or did you build it yourself? Do you have any schematics that I could build it myself? Any Link to a web page?
