Paul,
Nice work - I installed it on my Visor Platinum, but it acts weird. The
Forward/back arrows run motor A, the left/right motor B and the buttons to
the right motor C. The motor 1/2/3 buttons do nothing and the stop button
will not stop a running program. I didn't find any instructions on usage
anywhere, am I using it incorrectly? Finally, it doesn't work at all on
the scout, why would that be? The universal (LEGO) remote works on the Scout
as well, I figured that the Scout and RCX used the same over-ride codes, but
I guess not!
thanks,
DLC
