Configuring 5 Servo Robotic Arm In ARC

Hi I recently bought a EZ-bot developers kit and have been trying to configure a 5 servo robotic arm that is attached to a tank tread base very much like Roli I've read all the tutorials now I'm even more confused than when I started. My first attempts were using Ardunio where I managed to get to be mobile and use wi fi to control with my phone but it was buggy and the arm just never worked even close to what I was trying for. So when I saw the EZ-bot developers kit I jumped on it but now it has me feeling rather stupid because I can't get it to do anything! The ARC software sounded good but its anything but easy the tutorials are more advertising then instructional and the manual for the software is one sentence telling you to use the tutorials I'm tired of being sent in a fruitless circle for the information I need! When I try to build my 5 servo arm with claw in ARC it sends me in every direction except where the answer is I'm instructed to make a servo profile so I click on the make servo profile button to be told I don't have a servo profile hint read tutorial on servos useless totally and completely useless the tutorial mentions servo profile but never shows you where to obtain one or how to make one. If someone could please help me over this wall by showing me or even making me an example of the "HOLY GRAIL" the servo profile I will be forever in your dept thank you for any help given or offered I'm very impressed with the community here one of the best sites I've ever been to for help with or pertaining to robotics kudos to both the hosts and the users you set a great example to all as to how we should treat one another. There I've vented lol! MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL! confused
