Do you have facilities to program the RCX in assembler or hex?

Sure, that can be done. Take a look at brickOS. With brickOS as operating
system you can write your programs with gcc. So you can write c, or mix c with
assembler via asm{} or you could write plain asm routines.

I'm interested in a lower level language so that I don't have to learn another
higher one!

But you have to learn H8 assembler.

Since I soon learned that the way to squeeze more out of a BBC micro was to use
machine code, I think the same is probably true for the RCX.

Things get a lot faster, I think.

Are the sensor port power/read cycle timing and the available motor speeds
dependent on the firmware or the hardware?

Yes.

Michael
