  Re: Toy motors
 
I tried to use the special RC motor drivers for RC race cars with good luck, they simply connect to a servo output of the handy board and they work great and you can get them in a thousand different configurations like fwd/rev and brakes. They work (...) (26 years ago, 23-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Toy motors
 
I was reading the FAQ (again), and unless I overlooked something, it seems that even with the H-bridge or piggybacking solutions, I would not be able to drive a high-end R/C car engine (20+ amps)...

  Re: Toy motors
 
(...) Sure, just hack your HB to use an external battery for the motors. The external battery can be whatever voltage the motors prefer (within reason). If the motors still draw too much current, try piggybacking another set of motor driver chips on (...) (26 years ago, 22-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  6.270 vs. Handy Board motor stuff
 
[Max Davis] spake unto the ether: (...) Too much current (and voltage) for those original Polaroid motors, which are 6-volt. (...) I heat-sink mine with the clip-on variety; it helps. (...)
