  dodgy motor
 
The motor I got with my 8479 is very stiff - it can only be turned by hand with difficulty. It drives with power but more slowly than any others I have. It's not essential that I replace it as I have enough (from znaps etc). What should I do - put (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.codepilot)

  Online copy of Codepilot manual?
 
Hi, I've just received a 8479 (barcode truck) for my birthday... On opening the box it turned out that the codepilot instructions (i.e. not the set plans) were written in Italian, Spanish and Portugese only. Alas, I can cannot understand any of (...)

  Control six Micro Scouts with a fiber optic module?
 
I had this really sick idea last night, and I thought I'd throw it out for discussion. In theory, you could control up to six Micro Scouts or Code Pilots using two motor outputs and one sensor input. Each of the six fiber optic cables from the fiber (...) (24 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.microscout, lugnet.robotics.codepilot)

  Re: Does anyone actually still use theirs??
 
(...) It makes a good addition if you only have one RCX. You can use it to do some of the simple reactive behavior in order to save sensor and motor slots on the RCX - a scarce resource indeed. Søren Bak (25 years ago, 8-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.codepilot)
