I've been scanning around YouTube and seen some R2D2s using the "A_____o" boards and/or Yost Eng servo controller. Seems to me that the EZ-B is just what they need. Do the R2D2 enthusiasts know about how much more simple DJs board and software is? Maybe DJ needs some face time on the astromech.net board,
Lol I hear ya.
I'll be bringing R2 back into the house for some more tinkering and programming. I had him back in the garage for a dome gear upgrade.
I'll try to make some vids to post over at Astromech as I progress along.
Next up - Working on scripting for dome control (Syren10) Mounting new holo eye control panels for Wii control and randomness
Skip to 2:50 if not interested in assembly.
Dang dome is going to weigh 20lbs.
Looking good! Did you make those parts as well?
I wonder if the "snobbery" might be due to the amount of money and effort they spent on their projects. Making things cheaper and easier (i.e. EZ-B) would somehow devalue their efforts? I wouldn't think so. Technology and practices develop over time but that can't be helped.
