How to Make Remote Control Lego Robots for Kids

If you're tired of building cities, pirate ships, castles and models with your Lego bricks maybe it's time to move on to the next level and start building Lego robots. Lego robots can be modified in thousands of different ways, programmed or controlled by remote control. If you want a simple remote controlled motor for your Lego models, you can accomplish this by using a Lego Power Functions M-Motor and IR Remote Control. If you want a more functional robot, use the Lego Mindstorms NXT 2.0.
