I am curious to know why you think you would need to amplify the
RCX motor outputs?
The Lego motors are very efficient under no load. But the bridge
drivers in the RCX seem to cope with the stalled state (about 250mA).
Unless you are going to use really serious sized motors, which I don't
think is a good idea 'cos you'll just destroy the gears and axles, the
most likely problem with bigger motors is going to be shorter battery
life!

| I would like to see an RCX control a really fast RC car. It would be cool to see it pilot it flawlessly around a circle track. (...) Joel Shafer joel@connect.net (25 years ago, 15-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)
