| | | Anthony, As you've no doubt heard, RC motors take much more current than the Handyboard can supply. To control RC motors your only choice is to create a separate H-bridge to drive the motors. You can do this fairly inexpensively with power (...) (27 years ago, 10-Nov-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | | | | Anthony can correct me if I'm wrong, but generally the phrase "converting an R/C car" means, taking a Radio Controlled model car, modifying and/or removing the radio receiver and motor driver circuitry, and replacing it with a computer. The generic (...) (27 years ago, 1-Oct-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | | | (...) Well, that's partially correct. The RC cars usually have a speed control/ steering module that incorporates the RF receiver. This module supplies PWM signals to the drive motor and also controls a steering servomotor. Marco A.A. de Oliveira (...) (27 years ago, 11-Nov-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | | | So I guess RC servos/motors are regular servo motors and DC motors that have been stripped from RC cars? Are they any diferent from regular servo/DC motors? If not, then why lable them as "RC"? Since the RF component isn't there anymore... :-/ (...) (27 years ago, 11-Nov-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
