does anyone have a script that will let you control the servo and when you let go it will move back to centre?
How are you controlling it? Joystick? Scripts?

Need a command that will cue the sabertooth forward and reverse in the custom movement panel. Will the Forward() command cue the sabertooth motors forward and reverse() cue the sabertooth reverse, without sabertooth movement panel? or do i require a sabertooth m.p.?
If you have a Movement Panel added and set up correctly then the Forward() and Reverse() commands should work as they control the movement panel.

quote 1: scripts, wii remote, voice commands, autonomous.

quote 2: figured it out an hour ago

#3: will setting the turning values to 0 disable turning with the sabertooth?

#4: i need a diagram/pic of a sabertooth connected to the ez-b

As I just spotted by @Rgordon in a different topic.

Quote:

Left Motor = 1 to 127 (Full Rev = 1, Stop = 64, Full Fwd = 127) Right Motor = 128 to 255 (Full Rev = 128, Stop = 192, Full Fwd = 255)

So I would say to set them at 64 and 192 but can't be 100% as I don't have or have ever used a Sabertooth.

0 would confuse it so it wont turn, would you not think?

I don't think there is a position 0.

If you have no need to turn using the sabertooth couldn't you run both motors from one port? Or is the amperage too high?

amperage might be too much for one port

1 motor is 2.8-3A running and 6A jump at start 2 on one im not so sure about.
