    Thanks I appreciate it.. I am just attempting to do some experiments with SMC3 and see what each setting does but capture it on video for anyone interested like me.. I appreciate your comment my friend!

    the pot scaling feature i think is to smooth out the motion for super high powered cars.. i did not write the coding or the explanation and im probably wrong.. type 'pot scaling' into the forum search and see what comes up. i have not used that in the arduino code yet.. but thanks for asking me.. DMAX

    Updates Version 0.7

    • Added a POT scaling input that can be used to scale the motion output based on the POT position
    • POT scaling can be setup as one of two modes - Linear or non-linear
    • DO NOT ENABLE POT SCALING UNLESS POT ATTACHED TO ARDUINO
    • AN5 used for POT scaling input
    • The non linear scaling is designed to try and reduce the overall motion but maintain the "smaller" movements as best possible - ie road noise and stuff, but scale back on the huge side to side motion you get in higher power cars.
