Hi im currently doing a project that involves using the RCX to operate a train,
by using inertia equations.  Problem is im not very experienced in using NQC
lanague.  Im using potentiometers as controls on the outputs of RCX i will have
to write a program for inertia to use these controls to control the speed and
brakes of the train.  On the track i shall be using the hall effect sensor this
will act as an emergency brake to stop the train before the end of the track.
Was just wondering if anyone could give me any tips on how to go about
programing this.
any help would very apprecaited
thanks
steven
