Datasheet
motor controllers in tandem on an RC-controlled differential-drive robot (you might find our RC servo
Y splitter cables • useful for connecting two SMCs to a single RC receiver).
• RC channels can be used in any mode as limit or kill switches (e.g. use an RC receiver to trigger a kill
switch on your autonomous robot).
• Battery elimination circuit (BEC) jumper can power the RC receiver with 5 V or 3.3 V.
Analog features:
• 0.8 mV (12-bit) measurement resolution.
• Works with 0 to 3.3 V inputs.
• Optional potentiometer/joystick disconnect detection.
• Two analog channels allow for single-stick (mixed) motor control, making it easy to use two simple
motor controllers in tandem on a joystick-controlled differential-drive robot.
• Analog channels can be used in any mode as limit or kill switches.
