    Hi all.

    Firstly i'd like to thank @insanegr for his generous donation of coins to get me started. cheers mate!:cheers

    For my running gear at the moment i'm running an Arduino, thanos h-bridge, two 3557 Faulhaber motors fitted to Minimotor planetary gearboxes. 40mm of throw on the control arms

    Nothing with massive power but very controllable, rig is fairly well balanced so seems to be enough.

    Having a few issues with the Arduino code needed to run a 2DOF simulator with Hbridge having 2 pins for direction from racingmat
    Just getting no control from Arduino outputs, something weird going on.
    Will try another uno board, might be damaged as these things just usually sit around on my bench and get moved around most of the time.

    Will also post some pics of the christmas holiday build.
