Got it working whoo! Made an rc circuit to filter the pwm signal and connecting the wires to the joystick during the startup. I have the chair rolling forward, backward, and turning when connected directly to an arduino, not able to do this with ez board yet. Should I keep updating this forum since i am migrating twords using arduino for my project.

That's cool! How did you do it?

I'm thinking that whatever you're doing with the arduino should be able to be done using the EZ-B. Keep posting on this thread so we all learn what you are doing and then try and replicate it.
