90 ton 1/14 metal excavator scratch build w/embedded PC

I think I found a similar video with English... it's interesting how the motor shield works, is it possible to adjust reaction time from a stall? I'll look forward to seeing how well you're able to make it perform Stein.

You might need two set screws on every part? ...maybe three?

Yes, or four ;-) I think the biggest problem will be too much backlash in the gears. But we'll see.

For the motor shield, you can program any behavior you want. The motor shield just makes available the current measurement output from the driver chip out to the attached Arduino. You can add the logic of what to do either on the Arduino or even further out if you have something else that controls the Arduino.


Stein :-)
