Mindboards

Unless the post has a question in it that hasn't been answered in 4-5 days, the bump will be removed. If the bumping continues, we will consider other measures.

that's why you're playing with robotic lego, right?

There are two ways (that I'm aware of). the simplest is to use a relay ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay ), but these can only control the motors in one direction, at the same speed (using a simple circuit and two relays, it is possible to control direction). If you need speed control, you could ...
