Iotiny Questions

So, does the IoTiny work with everything that the original EZ-B worked with? I ended up somehow breaking my EZ-B a couple years ago due to a 1DI0T error, and I might start looking into working on robotics again. But first, a couple questions: Was there a redesign of the camera? I think I remember a camera redesign being brought up at some point,...

Mqtt Plugin Won't Stay Put

When saving and reloading my project the MQTT client control will not stay put on the desktop where it was originally placed. It sometimes loads on desktop 1 yet other times it loads on desktop 2. This causes all the other blocks to layer or fight for position...

Where Are The A.I. And Chat Bot Experts?

So there are a few AI and chatbot plugins for EZR. They are pretty cool and offer a couple of options for interacting with the bot. For my own purposes an AI presence is paramount for my EZR experience. Probably for a lot of you as well. Making a chunk of plastic and electrons appear alive is pretty cool. So does anyone have any progress to share...

Ez-B V4 Magic Smoke

Hi, I bought a DIY kit from Hobbyking. I planned to buy a EZ-Robot kit for a while and for that price, I could not resist any longer. I had my doubts if it was really a genuine kit, but everything looked legit. I build a small two wheeled robot with it to get familiar with ARC etc. I provide power to the EZ-B V4 with a 2s lipo. Everything was...

The problem: I can produce an Export-File (Servo Profile Auto Position) but If I import this Data, all is fully visible but nothing is working and there comes a error message: Auto Position Thread Error:...
