Life-form scanner electronics part 12

January 24th 2021
Found a ‘box’ on Thingiverse for the Pololu control board. So that got printed, and it’s  a perfect fit!

Next up was something I’ve sort of been looking forward to.... the Pololu 6 servo controller. Downloaded the program and plugged in the controller board along with two servos I had to hand. You also need power for the servos. The instructions online are good, but ..... I personally find watching/listening to step by step guides, is better at understanding a process. And I had a short sequence running in no time at all. This is going to be fun setting up the life-form scanner setup.

360° servos have also now arrived & have been tested.
360 deg rotation servos

Also the ‘Y’ servo lead’s came to.
Now to get on with the fine tuning.
