Is there a way to make it such that a small movement of the stick translates to a slow movement of the wheels (and a progressively larger deviation of the stick produces a faster wheel rotation)? I'm using a sabertooth H bridge, if that makes any difference. Also, is there...

Printing & Using The Pwm Value ? ?

Good Morning EZ-Scripters ! Attached is my crude attempt to use and display the PWM Value. :Start # PWM(D19,50) # :Loop # $x=GetServo(D19) # #WaitForChange($x) # Print($x) # Goto(Loop) # PWM(D19,50) initializes to 50%, and the Slide Bar changes its value, but my Print Value does not change ? Thank You All & Best Wishes, [email protected],...

Programming Ez-B

Hey DJ, is there any chance you can tell me what kind of input does the EZ-B bootloader take? Am I violating any terms of the EZB? If not is there any way in which you can help? I've always wanted to program the EZ-B with my own code, and yes I'm fully conscious that Im not going to be able to use EZ SDK, nor ARC, but is there any chance of me...
