question
Roomba Movement Panel
Anyone have any ideas on how to reconfig the Roomba Movement Panel to use a different port (i.e. D1)? I had a rather unfortunate incident with D0... and let's just say D0 is no longer an option, lol Thanks!

Joystick Control
Hi All. As far as I can tell, the joystick control is all-or-none movement. Is there a way to make it such that a small movement of the stick translates to a slow movement of the wheels (and a progressively larger deviation of the stick produces a faster wheel rotation)? I'm using a sabertooth H bridge, if that makes any difference. Also, is there...

Printing & Using The Pwm Value ? ?
Good Morning EZ-Scripters ! Attached is my crude attempt to use and display the PWM Value. :Start # PWM(D19,50) # :Loop # $x=GetServo(D19) # #WaitForChange($x) # Print($x) # Goto(Loop) # PWM(D19,50) initializes to 50%, and the Slide Bar changes its value, but my Print Value does not change ?

Programming Ez-B
Hey DJ, is there any chance you can tell me what kind of input does the EZ-B bootloader take? Am I violating any terms of the EZB? If not is there any way in which you can help? I've always wanted to program the EZ-B with my own code, and yes I'm fully conscious that Im not going to be able to use EZ SDK, nor ARC, but is there any chance of me...

Robot Combat League
Ive been itching to talk about this. My friend Mark Setrakain, was approached by a production company with deep pockets to see if he could create 8 foot humanoid robots that battle in the ring. Very much like a recent film with Hugh Jackman. Mark is probably the best animatronics engineer in the world. SyFy is showing very quick clips of the show...
