@inq It's not in my nature to 'retaliate/question sanity/throw darts' at anyone or their project. I'm just an 'old, fat, retired' guy trying to kee...
@inq, @byron, @robotbuilder To show a little (more) of my ignorance and further proof that I don’t know what I’m doing… Are you guys telling me (or...
[/quote] Maybe I can convert you over to the Dark Side and use stepper motors. IMO, It sure makes things easier. [/quote] That's the problem wi...
@inq Sorry, but I don’t remember exactly where I split off from. (At 81, my memory is not what it used to be.) I think it was TFMcCarthy talking ...
@bryon I read the latest from @dronebot-workshop with great interest! Although my bot is slowly coming along, my 'future enhancements' list includes...

@tfmccarthy, So, how goes your Elegoo Smart-car review?? My project is plugging along, I got the car moving (sorta) using the PS4 controller ->...
@videogame95, @robotbuilder FWIW, I just posed this question to AI (Copilot): Can the ESP32-Cam run the code to interface a PS3 controller to the...
@robotbuilder That Loona robot is something else! It ‘might’ even keep our cat entertained. My robot barely moves on the carpet, I had to go into t...
@tfmccarthy That’s part of what I’m working on now. I originally had a UART link and simple commands (forward, reverse, stop), but the mecanum whee...
@tfmccarthy OK, thanks. I’ll take a look at the Elegoo code and see if I can make sense of it. I think I understand (in principle) what needs to be ...
