Mark,

It depends on the wiring underneath. It is not a standard plug but is a computer serial RS-232 DB-9 plug. I have seen someone use it as connector for the upper and lower hull and put all the wiring thru it since it has 9 connections.

The original owner might have just use it for holding onto the commander (I usually use rare earth magnets) but he could also have use it as a charging port for the tank. If you include a picture of what is behind the plug then we would be able to say what it is for. Did you get any other "stuff" with the same plug ?
