Hey guys, I just put together my first robot using Lego Technic and some Tower Pro 9g Micro Servos... This worked perfect as a trial and error solution because the servos are exactly fitting into the Lego parts and the material is light enough to be driven by those weak servos!
It is kind of a wobbly assembly but it is good for testing and quit forgiving when it comes to parts bumping together head-on!
Sooooo my question is... I experience very jerky movement at some points in my animation. Most transitions are smooth but every now and then there is erratic movement, which seems to disappear if I notch up the power send to the EZ-B from 7.4Volts to about 9Volts!
Is this a proper solution or will this damage the board? I am also using a very small and cheap 1.5A Power Supply, should I switch to a bigger one so the servos are being supported better?
Let me know so I don't damage my board!
Threads go astray sometimes... what's important is that you hopefully got your answer and are good to go now...

Ok, good to know...
One more thing, I just hooked up the EZ-B on 5Volts and it gives me a battery is low warning! Any clues why or how to stop this?

See battery saver in that lesson.

Yep... 2 ways... 1) go into the connection control settings in ARC and disable the low voltage warning chant....2) You can also do it in the ezb4 web server, but you will have to be in AP mode first in order to access the web server...
Cool guys....thanks once more!
@Richard R, you don't need to be in AP mode to access the web server. Just need to know the client mode address.

@Alan... cool, didn't know that thanks...
