We are working with a 6 servo claw robot. Firstly, we are having trouble with the second servo from the base (the servo above the base servo). It wasn't working at all and when we...

Ultrasonic & Ir Sensors

I have noticed some builders place the Ultrasonic & IR Senors on servos and some don't. I am just about ready to add both (1 ultrasonic & 2 IR) to my bot and would like to know the pro's and con's of each way. Thanks in advance ... Herr
