As an addition to my earlier message I have a cheaper and possibly more versatile way of controlling the servos. I have obtained information on the Servo16 algorithm by Erik de la Iglesia which runs on a MC68HC11E1 (he mentions using the E9 but the (...) (27 years ago, 21-Jul-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
A friend of mine built a radio controlled walker with six legs using twelve servos and a single BASIC stamp to control the walking. The stamp accepts the PWM from the RC receiver (using the pbasic 'pulsin' command) and outputs the pulses to all of (...) (27 years ago, 21-Jul-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
Using the Miniboard as a servo slave is a good idea, perhaps even easier is to use a BOTBoard since the BOTBoard doesn't have any motor drivers hooked up to it (no PCB modification required.) Using the MiniSSC is "ok" but for controlling multiple, (...) (27 years ago, 21-Jul-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
