hello all. I am very new to all this. I have EV3 motor and EZB4. How would one go about controlling the motors with the EZB4? I read a lot of forums but no one seems to have it down in one place, from "soup to nuts" basically. I hear about Arduino and brick pi maybe an hbridge, etc. has anyone have any documentation to look at that can help out noobs like me:(? I was looking for the simplest way to control the Ev3 motors from the EZB4 (sensors would be a plus but necessary at this point). Forward/reverse, right/left for a tracks or wheels. I like the Wilber idea and hope to get there, but again not sure of all the interconnections between the motors and the EBZ4. I like the software in EZ robot and would like to stay on one platform t drive everything else as much as possible. Even a list of "ingredients" (i.e. hbridge, pinouts, EZB4,) might suffice. I may be able to figure out what to do from there. it's difficult for a noob to take all this in from 8 million forums and most are very dated 2 and more years ago. Hope that is something that can be relayed. I would appreciate it and the forum is awesome and the EZ Robot software and hardware just as awesome! Keep up the good work.

There's a lot of different "motors" for lego - and versions. Can you be more specific? I don't have any experience with lego components, but i'm sure it will be easy. I suspect all you will need is a 2.5 Amp Motor Controller, which uses the 4 Wire HBridge PWM Control. But, i'll need more information first, such as model number or something that tells us what the device is so we can get technical information about the wires.
