I want to try and reduce network overhead and resources (if...

Mini Servos

Hello to All, I am in the need of 4 mini servos like the ones used in JD’s neck.

Unresolved Forum Threads Question

I am now continually getting "nagged" to post that my forum thread "Flaky serial link with v4" has been resolved when it has not. Some things are probably not resolvable and the fact that DJ and Jeramie have never come back with a solution maybe confirms that the serial link can be flakey? I think its pretty poor to have to...
