    @ChrisOmaha is better placed to give advice as he used the same hardware: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/chrisomaha-2dof-build-thread.16993/#post-228052

    @noorbeast Found the issue, the expansion board i was using became faulty, i wired a pot to see what it was doing and saw the board would short out when fully maxed the pots. now its work again without the expansion board.
