    Is there a wiring diagram for connecting more than one Motor shield board to a arduino UNO controller? This is what I have now. A arduino UNO R-3 connected to a Moto Monster controlling two (2) Motors. Works great. What I would like to do is to add another motor so I will need to have another Motor Shield to make this third (3rd) motor work. I would need to see a wiring diagram to make this work.

    Thank You
    Terry W.

    RufusDufus code supports 3 motors and has a very handy app which makes setting up so much easier mate.

    Thank You Racing Mat for that drawing. I will probably only need three motors, but this will give me a spare. Thanks Again
