Hi Greg, I have been using LEGO 9v motors for a few years and I am very pleased with the results. I run freshman and sophomore engineering design and computer science courses using LEGO kits and HB's. The motors are well worth the price if you are (...)

What has been people's experience in using the Lego 9V motors with the Handyboard? I know they're overpriced, but they are easy to use... We've used small RC car motors etc. in our Lego robot course in past years, but some students have been looking (...) (27 years ago, 13-Feb-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Lego motors are OK ptrformance wise (if youre talking about small robots), but the cost is really bad. What I would recommend is taking surplus motors and superglueing them together to lego bricks. Especially for photsensors and switches. phil (27 years ago, 13-Feb-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I've decided to write an interrupt routine for the handling of serial data on the Handy Board. An example of an interrupt routine is given in the Handy Board technical reference. This works like a charm. I've modified it to use the SCI interrupt. (...) (27 years ago, 13-Feb-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
