@Richard R. So is it this one? http://www.robotshop.com/en/sabertooth-2x5a-rc-driver.html

Sabertooth Dual 5A R/C 6-18V Regenerative Motor Driver (R/C)

I just want to make sure because I don't want to buy the wrong part(s)

Thank you for your help.

Don't buy the R/C version unless you plan on using a radio to control your inmoov (remote control radio)... Buy the microcontroller version instead if you are using it with your ezb... The 2 x 5 should work fine.... Both Bob Houston and I have the same motor setup and he is using the 2 x 5 with no issues as well... Try and keep the weight of the base as low (without sacrificing strength) a possible....

@Merne.... on second though... you should get the 2 x 12 sabertooth just to be sure....

Thanks!

@Merne... Be careful with the wiring it up... There is no reverse polarity protection on the sabertooth.... I released the magical blue smoke in one of mine because I was careless and accidently reversed the battery connections...

They are expensive for sure.... But once you get to know how simple and convenient they are to use you won't want to go back to an H-bridge...

I have some example code on how to use the sabertooth so just holler if you need help with setting it up....

Cheers Richard

@Richard R. i got the sabrthooth 2 x 25 do you mind sharing the example code using the sabrthooth?

Thank you

Here is an example of using a custom Movement Panel to control the sabertooth... It assumes the sabertooth is on D0 and the dipps are set to 38400 baud... Be aware some of the serial commands may have to be changed if say the robot turns left when it supposed to turn right or reverses instead of moving forward... sabertooth_example.EZB

@Richard R. could you please spoonfeed me i dont want any magic smoke anymore. Do you mind a diagram to connecrt this saberthooth to the ezb ?

thank you.
