Hello, this is my first post here.
2 days ago I started working on my picaxe experimenter pack. I soldered the thing and it worked immediately. I want to build robots. I hooked up a simple servo to my board with a PICAXE 18X on it and used the SERVO command like this:
The servo worked. But it only waggled back and forth maybe 15 degrees. I have little electronics and BASIC experience and have now decided to buy a servo driving device from the webshop.
I want to control more than one servo more than 15 degrees accurately at a time. I am ordering the microbot as well as some other interressting stuff. Its a big order in the range of 280 E (live in the Netherlands). Finally I want to be able to make my own circuits and boards and robots to my own liking in as short a time as possible.
What is best to use to control the movement of BEAM like robots? Servos, motors or stepper motors?
Whats the difference of a servo driver and a servo controller?
Sorry for nonsense making comments if they are present in this post and thanx for possible feedback.
Cheers

Code:
main: servo 4,75 ‘ move servo to one end
pause 2000 ‘ wait 2 seconds
servo 4,150 ‘ move servo to centre
pause 2000 ‘ wait 2 seconds
servo 4,225 ‘ move servo to other end
pause 2000 ‘ wait 2 seconds
goto main ‘ loop back to start
