    Hi guys,

    I just registered on these forums to check about the integration of any roboclaw drivers. I'm personally interested in the 2x30A drivers.
    I want to use sabertooth 2x32A drivers but they are out of stock everywhere and that could last for a long time so that's why I'm looking at the roboclaws as an alternative.
    I've seen some people posting here that they actually bought a roboclaw driver to experiment with but have found 0 remarks about progress, current status or well..anything. So please, share any info if you have any. Thanks.

    Cheers

    I bought a robo claw 2 x 32.. But after reading everything here i wasted my money as there wasnt any help to get them up and running mate and everything people did look into it seems there is a problem or 2 that stops them being used .

    I hope you find a different driver board mate

    Cheers

    Hi!

    Thanks for answering. That's too bad, trowing ~150 Euro away. Do you happen to know what those 2 problems were? Or maybe a link? Anything? I have no idea what alternative I have right now. The project I'm starting involves 2 Sabertooths (2x32A) and Kangaroo controller boards. I have no idea about an alternative, those roboclaws looked like a good alternative at a distance. Could take about have a year to get some fresh sabertooths...
    So if you have some more details or point me to a link somewhere that would be great! If you don't have anything, that's fine too. Thanks again.

    Cheers
