Each of these are adafruit_motor.motor (https://adafru.it/BNE) type objects for the curious

To make our code easier to read, we'll make new names for each motor:

Control Motor

Now that we have our motor objects, we can simply assign the throttle, this will set the direction and speed. For

example, to set the speed to full forward, use motor_1.throttle = 1 and to set to full speed backward use

motor_1.throttle = -1 . For speeds in between, use a fraction, such as 0.5 (half speed) or 0.25 (quarter speed).

Setting the throttle = 0 will stop the motor.

# make two variables for the motors to make code shorter to type

motor_1 = crickit.dc_motor_1

motor_2 = crickit.dc_motor_2
