Small Basic Extension - Micro Maestro Servo Controller

Today's guest blogger is Zock77

Pololu's Micro Maestro Servo Controller

Hey guys! I just got a maestro servo control board and hooked it up to the Oculus with Smallbasic! It works really well!

The control board:

If anyone wants the extension to control the servo board from SB, you can download it here:

The six-channel Micro Maestro is a serial servo controller with a native USB interface and internal scripting control. It includes 0.25μs resolution with built-in speed and acceleration control, a general I/O controller (e.g. to interface with a sensor or ESC via your USB port), and header pins.

Special thanks to Zock77 for building these great extensions!

Small and Basically yours,
