    Hello!

    I want to incorporate traction loss to my 2dof.
    I currently use two motors 12v 180w, 50: 1, sabertoooth 2x32 and SCM3.

    For the loss of traction I will use a wiper motor and Moto Monster.

    Should I make a change to the code of SMC3 (Sabertooth) to incorporate the MotoMonster?

    You will need to have a second Arduino board, just for this MotoMonster.

    I say this from experience. I have 2 IBT2 + 1 motomonster.

    I thought there was a way to modify the SMC3 code to avoid having to use two Arduino boards ..
    Thank you very much!
