"DFRduino Romeo-All in one" with 4 motors ? Possible or not ?
Account cancelled 2012-08-27 03:57:04 2430 Views1 Replies Hello,
I intend to create a robot that has 4 wheels/motors but want to be able to adress the 4 motors.
Is it possible with the "DFRduino Romeo-All in one" that has only two motor terminals ?
Which card should I add to be able to adress and work 4 motors and lot only one ?
Does it make sense to adress and work work 4 motos ?
Regards.

The advantage here is that you can assign different pins to the module, where you can't do this with most shields...
The romeo can only control 2 motor terminals, but it can control 2 motors on each terminal, usually 2 left motors on one and 2 right motors on the other. This should provide you with the control you need. I'm not sure what your project goal might be... most people use the romeo to control 4 motors this way.
You might want to control all 4 motors individually if you need complete independent control of each motor... Hector
