Can you hook up RC servo signal inputs to the motor drivers?
It looks to be feasable as both require a pulse width modulated
signal but I'm not sure if the motor driver's carrier frequency and
range of pulse widths is suitable. Any ideas - it would be good is it
can be done as it makes walking robots "easy" to construct.

| (...) This won't work, as the servo's require a one-shot, not a variable duty cycle type of pwm (like what comes from the motor drivers on the HB). ie. the width of any given pulse is not consistent, just the overall duty cycle. RC servo's require a (...) (26 years ago, 2-Apr-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
