Remote Controlled Arduino Robot using Wixel Transceivers
- 3 April 2015Hello.
We did not make this robot, but it looks like there is an Arduino sketch called "wixelrobot.ino" on the Instructables page. The link to download it is just above the comments section of the page.

New product: Pololu DRV8835 Dual Motor Driver Kit for Raspberry Pi B+
- 4 March 2015Hi Doug,
Servos have built-in motor drivers, so the DRV8835 Raspberry Pi Kit would not be practical to use with them. The good news is that since servos work with logic level signals, you might not need any additional specialized hardware to control a servo with a Raspberry Pi. There is an Adafruit tutorial that shows one way this can be done.
Alternatively, if you need to control many servos at once, or the overhead of the PWM signal timing becomes problematic, you might consider using one of our Maestro servo controllers, which can be controlled with serial commands from the Raspberry Pi.

Controlling the Pololu 3pi Robot using a Joystick
- 17 December 2014Thanks for taking the time to do a nice writeup, Wilfredo. I like that your code leverages our Orangutan Arduino libraries. For those who would like to see more, here are links to the Arduino forum post and a YouTube video of it working:
