This week, we’ll finally be using the Arduino to control some motors! First up, we’ll control a standard DC motor running off a 9V battery with the help of an NPN transistor and a PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) signal from the Arduino. Next, it’s onto 180 degree servo motors, which we will power on an …
I just got a new go kart engine, i went from 6hp to 10hp. This new kohler engine I got I think was not built to put on a go kart, so I had some trouble finding a way to attach the gas petal. Well after a few days of not really figuring anything out, …
I am presenting a compact design of a stripboard Arduino board (DIYduino) that includes a 2A motor driver and has additionally the functionality of a sensor shield. The 2-channel version cost approximately $29.43 and is more affordable compared to $39.00 for a commercially available system consisting of an Arduino Uno, $21.50, a sensor shield, $8.50, and a motor …

I’m going to show you how to use your Arduino to control up to 12 servos at once with minimal jitter. Using a simple serial interface you can control the position of up to 12 servo channels. Up to 10 snapshot positions can be saved and played back at any time. Start up values for …
When I say simple, I don’t mean use a speed control. But control the motor directly without any external circuitry. Here’s how: How this came about: I recently was working on an instructable about charlieplexing with an arduino. And I was wondering if the same principle would work with motors to some extent. So I came up …
In this project, we will see how to control a DC Motor using Arduino and L298N Motor Driver. There are different ways to control a DC Motor but the Arduino DC Motor Control using L298N Motor Driver is becoming quite popular for many reasons. Overview A DC Motor is the simplest of motors that beginners …

Hello! In this Instructable i will teach you how to control a servo using a Photocell. This is very simple and good for beginners. Step 1: Materials 1 x Photocell 1 x 10k Resistor 1 x Arduino 1x Breadboard 1x Servo and some jumpers Step 2: Wiring it up Wire everything following the schematic below. …
This will explain how we re-purposed a hand drill to re-spool solder using a roboduino (arduino compatible), two servos, and a DIY encoder. While one could use TRIACs to play with the AC power going into the drill, just using a servo to control the throttle is simple and avoids the pesky high voltage. Hand drills …

Because of the remake of the animation and movie of Space Battleship Yamato, in addition to the attractive design of Bandai model. It make me interest to build this space battleship model again. Bandai not mention its scale, maybe ~1:2500 by estimation. Step 1: Start Design the assemble Sequence and Drill Holes for Those Lighted …

n this Instructable we will simulate an Toll Booth Gate by using a manual Push Button to open and close the gate. How Does It Work? When the vehicle comes in front of the gate, the push button is pressed & the gate is opened, this is done by sending a command via microcontroller to the servo to open the gate …
