Ez-Script Control Re-Sizing Itself

@DJSures Of late I have noticed that the EZ-Script controls are re-sizing themselves when I reload a project. I will set them to a certain (small) size and save. When the project is reloaded, they have become wider and are overlapping. This makes it difficult to structure the controls as I would like. Have they been programmed to some minimum and...

Stepper Motor For Hero Jr. Retrofit

I can power them from my external source, and attach an H-Bridge...

Give A Report On Battery Level?

I received my JD Humanoid a few days ago, and I have to say that so far I am very impressed! My idea was to be able to ask something along the lines of "whats your battery level" and have JD give me a response. The response either in the form of percentage or number or whatever. I know that anything is possible in programming, but I know...

Of the 3 pins for the digital servo connection on the EZB, white for signal, red, black for power. Can I use the signal pin to the servo, and use a larger voltage battery's pos and neg to power the...
