Question On Soundservo(Pcspeaker)

Question on SoundServo(PcSpeaker) I am trying to use SoundServo(PcSpeaker), but no servo movement. The TalkServo and SoundMicrophone work fine.

However, after I have checked out the mobile interface builder, the options available in it...

I see in the manual that you can only have one controller per project but I've read others say they are placing several H bridges in their robots. I plan to have at least 4 DC motors in my robot. If so how is it wired up? According to DJ's video there only seems to be room...

Support For Gps In ARC And ARC Mobile?

Hello DJ, I noticed that there appears to have been support for GPS in previous versions of ARC but I don't see the control in the current version of EX-Builder. I have read some interesting threads about the Iphone data streamer app. Is there such a thing for the Android Phones? Will GPS be supported again in ARC? Thanks Much, Rick B.
