Can Anyone Point Me to A Source For Devloping A Servo Controller
Just got back into the hobby (R/C Planes) after a 20 year absence. In that time, I've learned a fair bit about electronics and have been programming and play with PIC microcontrolers for quite some time. I have PCB and CAD software and design and build my own circuit boards (on a hobby level any way). With that said, this is a fun hobby to be in these days if you can also tinker with the cool new electroncis that this hobby has to offer. What I'm looking for is a resource like "Controlling an R/C Server 101". I've got a general idea of how they work but I'm looking for a bit more detail so that I can write a quick program or two to play with.
Thanks!
Thanks!
