Hi all,
I'm at a stage in my project where I need to decode 2 channels from my Spektrum reciever and transform the signals into values that I can drive 2 motors with. I already have 2 motors driven with a Sabertooth 2x10 directly from the reciever. I don't have another Sabertooth though. I do have a Robotics Connection Serializer that I think will drive these other 2 motors since the amperage req. is low and it has two drivers on it.
I did find posts regarding capturing ppm on Arduino but most of them are dated and I'm not sure if they'll suit my purpose.
- flip landing gear switch on my radio.
- Arduino capture channel data
- Arduino determine if switch is up or down
- Arduino send I2c or serial to RoboticsConnectionSerializer to move motor to position.
I was thinking of having microswitches to determine min and max movement rather than waisting encoders for this purpose as the movement I require will be fully one direction or the other.
Can anyone offer me any direction on this? I'm almost ready to take this 200pound beast outside for testing and this is my last hurdle. I promise to post video 
I picked a project that I haven't seen online yet.
