how do you control it with a psp?

i got mind storms nxt and a psp and nothign to do outside or inside.

so how and how long does it take?

[Laurens200]

You cannnot do that with the NXT. The PSP communicates with the RCX.

Cool Arm! lol :-D

I love how you used a PSP, 2 kinds of Brains & a Nematic Air Pump. lol :-D

Do you use a Custom Firmware or 1.5 for the PSP?

PSP Program used?

Program using WiFi or IR?

P.S. I love Lego's & My PSP.

[Laurens200]

Custom FW, but 1.5 will work also. IR, using IRShell

Re: Laurens200 (In case of Posting Error)

FW 1.5. Thats cool. lol :-)

I'm using 3.40 OE-A

I have IRShell too. Great program. lol :-D

When will Sony get a clue! People buy DS's for the same reason, we hack the crap out of our PSP's. lol :-)

Thank You! lol :-D

P.S. The Homebrew that control's the robot with the PSP? lol :-D

Kind of. IRshell emulates communication commands that are normally used between two RCXs. So the RCX thinks it gets messages from another RCX and accomplishes tasks based on the message.

P.s. :p In case they do get a clue, they won't be able to stop the hacks from coming out :)

now when robots take over the world you can blame the lego company xD

[leksuli]

yeah if you would buy millions of lego mindstorms and lego sets you would be able to create a mecha XD

[smzubek]

Are there certain IR Messages that either the PSP or the RCX cannot use?

I have been at it for hours, and I cannot get the RCX to pick up the messages from the PSP.
