Good Evening
I m working on a Project which includes controlling 5 Servos with 5 Flex Sensors. I
have written the code and it works fine with one Flex Sensor but as soon as i attach more servos
and more flex sensors. After addition of more Flex Sensors whenever i flex any one of the
sensors all the Servos start moving like they all are synced or attached to the Same Flex Sensor. I
would really appreciate any help. Code can be viewed in the attachment and is also pasted below.
