Rss Feed Unstopable

It seems an Rss feed is unstopable until it reaches the end. A "ScriptStop" will try to stop it, but will only lock it up with "(highlighted in green) Stopping". I would like to stop the SpeakRSS whenever I wanted rather then wait until it normally ends, with a Script command or an EXEC. Any leads/suggestions would be...

Dual R/C And Ez-B Controls

Hi, All. I am just starting out on planning a robot build and was thinking that it would be good to be able to have the robot under remote control when it is not autonomous.  Running things via a sabertooth seems like a workable solution for a robot's wheels, but I have other servos, lights, and sounds that need to be dual-controlled as well.  I...

Robosapien H Bridge Motor Controller

This message is for DJ or anyone else who may have an answer. I am combining my robosapien with a RAD base for movement. In setting up the robosapien it seems I must use the D1 port to connect to the Robosapien via the movement panel for robosapien. I assume that is how I must communicate with the robosapien control module as no other option is...
