Additional ARC Requests
Hi. I have a couple of ideas for the EZ-Robot team to consider that I think would be a nice addition to ARC. 1. When adjusting the volume slider from 100 on an EZ-B soundboard, say to about 60 for example, when a project is saved, closed, and reopened the volume goes back to the default 100. Would it be possable to add the ability to save the the...

Additional Batteries For Jr
Why not put batteries in the feet of JR to extend his running time? A little mod to the feet profile and could put 1300maH in each foot. Or maybe extend the other part of the body to put in 2 other 1300's Just some thoughts

Autoposition - Dc Motors & Servos
I have to admit I have not tried the AutoPosition control. It's still a bit of a mystery to me but I plan on diving into it in a few days. I've been focused on building a 7 pound arm with 4 joints for my B9 Lost in Space robot. I've now got it working smoothly; twisting and turning and lifting the weight. The first "elbow joint" lifts all...

question
Defective Servo?
Hi, I have Six and it was working perfectly until just recently. One of the servos doesn't seem to be getting a signal or isn't responding. It was on port D1 so I swapped it for the servo on port D4. No luck. I opened it up to see if there was an obvious issue. All of the wires are soldered to the board. Any suggestions?

At random times, ARC will just pretty much disable torque on all of my Dynamixels. I don't think it's a issue with power or the Dynamixels themselves, since...
