| Thanks for the tip! I am new to this, and I am really anxious to build robot with legs. I don't know much about PIC (yeah, what does that stand for anyway? :-p), but knowing that PIC is what I need, I can at least get start on finding books on (...)

| It sounds like you might have a mechanical, rather than electrical, problem. Servos typically have some sort of stop nub on the gears so that they can't rotate past a certain point. If you don't cut off the nub with a hobby knife or saw, the motor (...) (25 years ago, 5-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| Hello.. i am a beginner of using HB and i have some problem hope you can help me.. thanks..

| Personally I use a Scott Edwards Serial Servo Controller (model 1, there is a new one out now) - SSC. On the handyboard web site is a program to control this serial device from the handyboard, which means you can just set each leg position and let (...)

| Have a look a (URL) is my hobby robotics site. Currently I have a Hexwalker running with a HB. The 12 servo's are simply controller by a PIC 16F84. This PIC is controlled by the HB through an async interface. This makes it lightweight on the HB, so (...) (25 years ago, 4-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
