:P

I have couple question about the kit.

If I have servos HS 645 can I use with EZ robot brain.? If I can than how many can I use up to ?

I am really interesting about using lipo battery? However if I use servo HS 645 than do I have to do any adjustment?

Last question, if I purchase I complete kit , which is include heavy duty servos. Are they same size as HS 645 servos?

Thank you.

Of course the pictures explain it.... It all makes sense now... It tells me right off the bat that I need to go back to school and take a dozen or so courses in advanced calculus just to be able read what you posted....:P:P:P

Lol that what I am taking right now that why this would be a great practice.

I read in the ARC scrip manual, and I do see sin() cos() tan() etc. So if I make a clear flowchart (which include in ARC ) I would be able to use Ex builder to execute the function right ?

For future advance, the EZ camera will work great with IK to produce more nature movement and auto balancing. (I hope);););)

Most math commands are available in EZ-Script. Having only scanned over the topic very quickly I can't say for sure but can be confident that EZ-Script will be able to manage what you want to do. If the math command isn't there it's usually added by DJ pretty quickly after being requested so just ask if you can't find it, if it exists someone will tell you, if not then it's flagged up for a future update.

Also, I noticed you said you can only read the manual. You can install and use ARC without an EZ-B. You could practice with scripts and use variables, Print or Say to output data while waiting for your kit to arrive etc. I write a lot of scripts without being connected to an EZ-B (in fact I write a lot of scripts without ARC in front of me).

I am so glad to here so. I already install the ARC program , however I prefer to read the manual first. Lol. Nurd!

Let talk about the project! As I skim throught the information about about what ARC can do. I am really interested in the feature "track color or movement." In addition to that, it is kind of inverted kinematic relation control the camera servo. Any opinion for this friends?

I post my YouTube channel please check out some of my project.;) subcribe if you are interested. :):):)

As for those servos - I know the rating is 4-6v, however I have successfully used servos with our 7.4v lipos without issues. Now, as a disclaimer I am not telling you to use them. But, the hassle of wiring regulators for each servo may be more trouble than having 1 servo burn out every year.

If you wish to test, I would recommend connecting one of your servos to the ez-b v4 with a 7.4v lipo battery and have it move back and forth with some weight for an entire evening while you sleep. I suspect it will still be fine in the morning:)

All R/C cars, planes, boats, etc... use 7.4v batteries to power their servos - and none use regulators. FYI:)

Thank you DJ. I plan to use all 18 EZB servo to less hassle. Sorry I will try to be clear next time.

And this is my current project with Botboarduino rover with arm.

@Mr.K... You will be very happy with the ez robot servos... they produce much more torque than the Hitec 645s... I assume we are talking about the Hitec 645s? Anyway, I am going to disagree with DJ somewhat... Probably first time ever...:) But I have had problems running hitec 645s with 7.4v... Granted I have had none burn, but they seem to chatter a lot and seem to have some problems holding position with the higher voltage...
