Rob - who just wants more inputs and outputs on his RCX 3.0. Oh, and a • power

more, but I can't think of them right now!

What baffles me is why Lego never made a rotation sensor
based on a potentiometer.  It would be low cost (since it is
passive) and offer much better resolution than the current
rotation sensor for applications requiring <270 degrees of
rotation.

I think there was one for the DACTA sets. It's easy to make your own
though.
