Choosing the right motor controller is one of the trickiest parts of building an RC tractor or robot or whatever you are trying to make. The reason is that a motor draws a lot of current which means the voltage the motor can handle might be small. This means you […]

We recieved an LCD keypad shield for an Arduino from IC Station in our mailbag this week. This is a great way to add a user interface to your Arduino and I show you how to do that in my review video. IC Station liked our reviews and have given […]
