Re: pic: VEX power from 12v

Whoa, way to revive an old thread!

The key part is a variable voltage regulator (probably an LM317T), so take a look at the datasheet to find out exactly what resistors you need. The Vex controller needs between 7.2 and 9V. You could also use a straight 9V voltage regulator, although you would probably have to order these instead of getting them from Radio Shack.
