Continuous Rotation Servos At 8.0V
Alright. Simple question. If I have continuous rotation servos connected to the ez-b running off of a 7.2v ni-mh battery(max voltage7.9) will it survive? If not, could I just PWM it down and it will do fine?

Cepstral Voice Effects
@Steve G Steve, I carried out your tutorial to change the voice effect in Cepstral, and it works GREAT! Before I found your tutorial I had contacted Cepstral, to see if I could change the voice effect to another device, and said it could not be done. Thanks for the tutorial posting. Much appreciated, Cheers, Chris.

Can I Order Ez-Robot's Products From Italy?
Good evening, I'm Alessandro and this is the first time I use EZ-Robot's Forum. As a Star Wars fan, I would like to start building my own life size BB-8 prop and I want to try doing it using EZ-Robot products. But I saw that this group is located in Canada, so I guess this might be a problem since I live in Central Italy and there are no shops...
