I've been working with José David Parra on the next version of his (URL) RCX.NET> project, because 1.) the NXT system is coming out, and 2.) RCX.NET is basically a .NET wrapper of Spirit.ocx, which means it's not so nice to program with. Another (...)

NQC scores 1.6 for usefulness, 1.5 for ease of use and 2.1 for enjoyment. (1 is (...)

Hi, I am very interested (for a variety of reasons) in which programming language people are using to build robots. I wonder if you would fill in a questionnaire about it at: (URL) all about how useful, easy and enjoyable your chosen language is. If (...)

(...) I haven't tried it with a program on the Scout yet but the scout uses the third motor commands to send VLL and the Microscout accepts VLL commands when running the "P" program. The scout also accepts motor commands from the LEGO remote without (...) (21 years ago, 5-Apr-05, to lugnet.robotics.scout, FTX)

| | Scout third motor microscout Hack
|
|
I was playing around with my Scout and using a microscout as a third motor using the VLL and fibre optics. It has limited use due to the length restrictions of the fibre optic cable and the microscout motor is not the easiest to use or mount. I have (...)

| | BricxCC 'Float' Command not working on Scout
|
|
While programming a Scout using BrickCC, no matter how many times I tried, I could not get the Scout to 'float' its motors. The program was as follows- task main() { OnFwd(OUT_A); Wait(50); Float(OUT_A); } After a half second the motor would brake, (...) (22 years ago, 24-Oct-04, to lugnet.robotics.scout)

(...) You can program the Scout brick using NQC. Is that what you mean by "new"? You can also program the Scout brick using MindScript and LASM. All three of these languages are supported in BricxCC. It works fairly well with the Scout. But the (...) (23 years ago, 21-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.scout)

Rob, Yes, the MicroScout needs the light tube. The Scout, on the other hand, should work with the IR tower. As I stated in my previous message, I have absolutly no problems downloading NQC code to my Scout using BricxCC and the IR tower. I think the (...) (23 years ago, 15-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.scout)
