This is a rather complex and long-discussed issue, but here we go:

1. The RC will still execute PBASIC without an OI attached. Trust me on this one as I did it many times while preparing to write RoboEmu.

2. The RC will NOT send information to PWMs or relays without an OI. Basically, the SERIN will cause your program to hang if I remember correctly.

3. Auto mode will also not work without the OI. The RC depends on the OI for things like Team number, disabled/enabled, auto/no-auto, etc. It just plain won't work without it.

I know Wildstang made a mini-OI out of (I think) an HC08 uP. They may be willing to share. Also, I'm working on some other stuff, but it's going to remain secret until I make sure it's not going to destroy anything.

If you dig around long enough, you can probably find some other threads dealing with this issue.
