Hacking the LEGO Mindstorms NXT Standard Motor

[mabusincarnate]

isn't the hardware open source? i think this is available on the lego website.

Yes, the motor circuit schematics are available from the h/w os pdf.

But I am sure if it was published b4 or after this video clip

nice project but

try to connect a dc motor with rotation sensor to the nxt. that would be more interesting.

[legomoviem4ker]

and who would really care why?

[jpsieben7]

now plug the power wire into something that can store energy and make a hand crank charged battery.

[SSJLIGHT]

Anyway to make it faster?

I would rather plug it in to run it.
