    i think its all right now.. when the slider is all up, i got 4,80 in middle 0v in bottom -4,80
    as u can see in the video below.... the motor change direction in middle slider position in 50% it doesn't works after it goes to one side or other...



    its correct?

    hey prilad sorry to boder u again...im trying to pakage all the pcb into a box.. so far so good.. but i went to run a test to see if is all okay,, and ima having some simple problems i think its in the software
    1) the pcb arduino and h-bridges are all fines.. ive double checked all...
    when i move the slider up... im not having the right voltage on in1 and 1n2
    for example....... in1 up 4,00 and dowm 1v and IN2 dont change nothing.. all components are working perfectly
    it was a suprise for me.. lets see if we can solve this thanks

    What the PWM values you see? If PWM do not change sign (it may be if you do not connect pots and it value = 0 or 255) you should see what you see. Please give me values of PWM and SENSOR or show me video with your trouble...

    You should not make tests without pots

    Take some good high resolution pictures of your boards before you button them up into an enclosure and share them here. ;)

    Uno can support 4 servos easily, plugged directly into the UNO , just needs a 5v power supply plugged into the UNO.

    An Interface setting file would be handy for him to be able to download and drag and drop into the Tools in SimTools Game Engine. Maybe placed into the first post for newbies to pickup and get moving quicker in turn we can collect these settings and once confirmed by a couple of people that they are good, we can attach them to future releases of SimTools for all to use. Just makes life easier for more.

    No, my current firmware version not support monster moto stacked on Arduino. But I work on next version with support this feature.

    That would be great! It would make for a quick & easy solution.

    What motor drivers does it support BTW?
