    I work with a guy that does a lot of storm chasing and I guess this peaked his interest. He wants one now so he can mount his big HD camera to it on the roof of his truck.

    Thank you soo much. If it wouldn't have the craziest shipping I would send you a beer. When I said my wife I meant fiance as we are getting married in 26 days and this was a side project to keep my sanity during all this planning and prep. I appreciate your patience and trying to teach the way...

    Is there a way to test without an oscilloscope. Like disconnect the motor from the geartrain so if I turn the pot slightly so the motor is in low speed and use a voltmeter to see it the voltage is still just 5v or if it is lower. If its slow and at 5v wouldn't that mean its using pwm. I have no...

    I don't know I thought all digital servos used a pwm.

    I am just becoming more confused as we go.

    I want to open the servo cut the wires going to the motor and use those two wires to drive a larger motor.this may explain http://letsmakerobots.com/node/34692

    The servo is an digital mg995. Terrible servo my wife ordered trying to help so oh well I'm using it. It has only the motor leads that when stationary sit a 2.5v. That's why the guy who made the first circuit said to use the lm339 so it outputs only 0 or 5v.

    If this is the diagram you mentioned I don't understand how I could use the motor outputs of my servo to drive this.

    That's a movie myth very rarely are they used for crime. Its more of noise pollution to animals and people. They are far from silent. I will read more of the parts you recommend after work.

    Firearm suppressor like for a 22. Your country doesn't have laws against them because it cuts down noise pollution. Here its up to a nine month wait and a $200 tax. Unrelated to this forum I know but I always thought that was kinda cool of new Zealand.

    I greatly appreciate your help. I went to the library to find books on circuitry so I can better understand the advice. The products you listed are only rated for around 5amp and my motors run around that continuously so they won't really work. If all else fails I can try rewriting the software...

    Would you mind drawing a circuit that would work with parts listed or just one that would work.

    He had it right on. Its open source image recognition and targeting. I needed bigger servos but when you cross a size price goes up dramatically. My setup is a ball shaped turret that opens and pushes forward ten custom airsoft guns in two vertical stacks. The wiper motors are the price and...

    The h bridge is for a beefy sentry gun project. Its open source software driving servos through an arduino. If I change the code so it delays the direction change would that prevent the shoot through if so what kind of delay would I need. I think I can go to 1/1000sec in timing. I'm on a tight...

    does this seem right?

    I am New to circuit building and this circuit doesn't make sense to me. I want another opinion because the 12v supply is a car battery powering a wiper motor. I've already tested stall amperage at 13amp. What I don't understand is the pull up resistors on the 339 output. I am using one 339 and...
