well i got the motors in today and they wont run using a 2cell battery when i take the jump the motors try to move but it never happens, if i remove this 2 cell holder and put the jumper back in and run everything using the 9v it works fine but... i have issues... if i use this code:
#include <AFMotor.h>
AF_DCMotor motor1(1);
AF_DCMotor motor2(2);
void setup() {
motor1.setSpeed(200); // set the speed to 200/255
motor2.setSpeed(200); // set the speed to 200/255
}
void loop() {
motor1.run(FORWARD); // turn it on going forward
motor2.run(BACKWARD); // turn it on going forward
}
Both motors will spin forward and everything seems to work.. but if i add a reverse action or a delay the motors will get stock like they will try to work but they wont start and then it works then it stops... im going to try to put a cap 0.1 in the motor connectors tomorrow and see how that goes...
