Been reading today about the TTL Serial Port on the RC.

Any possibility that these two things can be electrical tied together (simply)? With some of the code samples I have seen it could then be possible to add some more capability to the robots.

Let me know what you think!

Don't think so. I believe he mouse input on a computer interprets the input data through the mouse driver.(software) Each mouse can have it's own protocol for data as polled by the mouse driver. I will ask around for more info and get someone to respond.
