Hi all,

I want to build a six legged walking robot using the handyboard. I want
to use 6 servo motors for that. I heard that the handyboard can only
control 2 servos, but that there is a servo controller board which can
control up to 32 servos, supplied by an american company. does anyone
have experience with it? Is it fully compatible with the handyboard and
its software? and were can i get more information on that?

I hope somebody can provide me with some information.

Thanks in advance and regards

Jasper Hillebrand

You can gang them to get 32 servos or even more. The boards (...) (29 years ago, 22-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
