Hi,
I received my new motor and installed it and now the motor runs. Playing around with the examples, specifically diddy2web.py it all runs fine until I try and spin or turn. Going forward is fine on any surface. Going back ditto.

HI,
I am thinking of mounting the Monsterborg hardware onto a larger chassis.
Can you envisage any issues with it turning correctly with a larger wheel base/width between wheels?
I was thinking maybe double the size of the existing chassis
Regards, David

Hi everybody,
I am using diddy2FollowBall.py with thunderborg with success.
I also bought an ultraborg.
Does some of you already added a pan/tilt function in the followball script with success?
I'm trying to add this functionality but I'm just starting with ultraborg and I'm a bit lost.
thank you for your help

Hi,
I'm coming to the end of building a Red DiddyBorg2 and am having a problem with a single motor. All the motors are connected and most of them are running fine. However one refuses to move. A multimeter suggests there is a voltage across it and very very occasionally it will move a tiny bit when power is applied, however on the whole it just does not move (it does get hot though - much hotter than the working motors).

Hi,
will use the new Rasi 3, B+ (latest Raspi Model). Before starting setting up the monsterborg I would like to ask if the MonsterBorg Python scriptes work with Raspberry Pi 3 B+? In another PI project, I've some trouble with good work Rapi 3 stutt, if using the new B+.
Tkx in advance
Peter

Hello, I installed everything according to the guide and the raspberry pi boots when i use the 5v power cable. It doesn't boot when i use the 10xAA battery pack, nothing happens when i connect the batteries. What could be wrong?

I recently purchased a Monsterborg kit, order number 231858. I carefully followed all directions during assembly. My problem is that when using a PS4 dual shock controller, only the left hand stick appears to be operational and the monsterborg will only go forward and in reverse. The right hand stick to make left or right turns does nothing. The PS4 controller is paired successfully and the test script "jstest" shows responsiveness in both controller sticks.

My wireless knowledge a little weak. Can you possibly point me towards a procedure for setting up peer-to-peer with android phone? Oh, and thanks for help on earlier problem. System works perfectly (power failure).

Hello i use 6x 12v 100rpm motors, 1x Tuhnderborg motor controller and a raspberry pi 3. And a chassis from the 3D printer. No sensors!
Which software? Monsterborg Software or Didiborg Software.?
