I have a small couple of scripts for handling motor movement and all in a packaged bot...

Hello There...I am building scripts to supply a Motor Cape on the BBAI-64 with additional capabilities for four geared, DC motor movement. 

It is working out well with an online server for now. I plan on using a Joystick or 2.4GHz controller one day but that will be later in life...

Here is a short video of some terrible voices from yours truly and the bot in question:

This is a small set of source that is a WIP and needs attention. It should get someone started on building PWM and GPIO peripheral style source...

I really like the chip onboard the device. It can handle high temperatures and this board boots extremely fast and those are two main reasons to handle this board and chip on it.

This is a board and a daughter card for handling PWM and GPIO peripherals to motors. It can handle up to four DC motors (two wire) or other types of motors. Enjoy...
