IR Receiver/Transmitter

[dolittle]

Hi,

I have been trying to get a hold of any of these inside standard LEGO kits, but I found it to be quite difficult.

Beside buying them separately, i.e. Used from bricklink, anyone with an idea where you can get IR Receiver ( http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/58123cx1 ) / Transmitter ( http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/58122cx ) kits? I don't see the LEGO site listing them in any form. Am I missing something?

Thanks,

Noam

Now that there is options :)

Would you guys recommend buying the IR Remote or the IR Speed Remote?

Thanks,

Get the speed remote. Just plan to add some sort of wheels onto the two knobs to make them easier to turn.

Ok, thanks :)

I think you should buy both , but in first priority- the normal remote

because it can reverse both actions in just 1 click so that the motor can instantly spin in either ways.

However if you dont have a mechanism that needs a fast direction change, go for the speed one.
