Thank you @davee, but I don't know of anyone (else) that has followed on using the steppers. If you are looking to do just a RC toy car. The...

Hi @andydowns, Yes, an impressive project and perfect for a dronebotworkshop project! Skipping Steps I failed to fully qualify my statement. ...

I don't know anything about blast gates. I did YT to see what they were. Anyway... I do know that steppers skip steps, so your limit switches are re...

I had the same question - If you are wanting closer to the 1.5A ability of your motors, I would suggest using the DRV8825 driver. It is pin compat...

Someone on the forum wanted a tutorial a while back to set up a Raspberry Pi headless. I simply provide a set of steps that is pretty strait forward ...

This might be an understanding problem: Just because the router is connected to the Internet doesn't mean SSH is going over it. If your RasPi an...

@cristishor201, I have to admit, I agree with @zander about your post is very confusing. Let me offer several things and see if any of them apply a...

Enlightening! @fester225 - Do you have a coined term you want to use for your strategy where each motor has its own MPU? I'll use the term Motor-Mo...

I don't want to sway you toward using steppers. In my use case they make more sense. For a large bot (> 20 lbs) that doesn't need precision, I do...

As I mentioned, I prefer stepper motors for primary motive power. As long as you stay within their torque limits, you don't need to do any encoder lo...

I'm not sure I understand this, I don't have a lot of hardware background. It sounds like you want to try multiplexing over the same power lines. Ac...

I am looking forward to your journey! I always wanted to do a robot... about the era of the IBM-PC coming out, so about the same as you. The price o...

Thank you! I was feeling kind-of lonely at my end of the spectrum. 🤣 🤣 🤣 I now see I have a brother in arms!
