Re: Can this Cheap LEGO RPM meter be used on FRC Bots??
The yellow speedometer/tachometer was made by lego for use with the Lego Racers series. To my knowledge, there is no way to interface this with the RCX (or any other pbrick) legally. The only thing I can think of is hacking (which would obviously be illegal).

I'm pretty sure serious lego fanatics (eg, AFOLs) don't use it. But I could be wrong on that. (Again, I defer you to Lugnet.)
