(...) Firstly, it looks like the sensor board can be powered from the HB using the motor power header (J13). This is good, because the two should share a common ground.

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)... So here are my questions: 1 - Could I lower the (...) (26 years ago, 22-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) 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)

I understand that you can't use normal toy motors I just have two questions: 1. Can you construct circuitry to limit current and voltage draw to operate these. 2. Can you purchase 9v motors in the same physical diamensions as normal toy motors? I (...) (26 years ago, 21-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
