(...) That's one possibility. (...) OK, that's a much better way of phrasing that :). The thing that's a little confusing (to me) is that means that if the NXT named "Ann" wants to communicate with one named "Ben", you can establish a BT connection (...) (20 years ago, 4-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Erm, can I clarify here; The digital sensor port which is part of the motor port is not the same as the digital port which is part of the main sensor ports. The two digital wires which are part of the motor port are input only, whereas the (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Not exactly. There was talk about that early on. You can not use the sensor port to drive a motor, and you can not use the motor port to read an analog (old style) sensor. The hardware specs may have changed, so I may not be 100% on this, but (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) The motors offer little resistance when used this way. However, there's something else which I think is kind of cool. If you look close, when I let go of the controller, the paddles return to the middle, and the car stops. Using just one block (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Yep (at least that's one way to do it). I tried making a X-Y joystick, but the mechnical slop was more than I liked, so I've got one with two paddles and a thumbwheel (slightly different from Steve's) (...) Not too bad. The NXT motors are not (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)
