I saw this post that had 1 servo motor controlled that steered a boat motor I was trying to make two servos that act exactly the same as this post if anyone could help would be greatly appreciated.

[image] Benyhafkamp: two servos with two axis joysticks Two motors side by side each controlled but their respective joysticks?

could it be done with one controller?

yes two servos controlled by one Arduino one joystick that has two axis

[image] Benyhafkamp: could it be done with one controller? Yes. Why do You want to control the servos separately? Making the two engines point at each other will create bubbles but for what good? In other words, why not one joystick controlling both engines? Let be that one joystck signal b…

im not using it to control trolling motors its for a different project, im making a crane rotate and a winch motor that will be controlled with one joystick up down for winch motor and left right for crane left and right

Okey! Got hooked up on boats and thought of a dual engine boat... Still, no problem. Exercise joystick reading and servo running. But..... wouldn't DC or stepper motors be better then 0 - 180 degree servos?

only need 180 deg motion, i just dont know how to combine the two servos in program

[image] Benyhafkamp: only need 180 deg motion Fine. Then we can continue. As I get it the two servo moves independently. Joysticks usually consists of 2 potentiometers. One working horisontally and one vertically. Read one pot, scale and calculate the data for that part. Then do the same f…

im not well versed yet on this coding i can do parallax basic stamp, but this code is not intuitive.
