Hello,
I was fishing around in the garage and found my old EggBot Beta.
It never worked correctly with the solenoid. I was never able to get anything that was even close to usable.
Then the original eggbot came out. I contacted Evil and they told me it really was something that could not be fixed at the time.
Role time forward and here we are. Checking the internet I see that there is a new Pen Arm. But my controller board is 1.1. I think 1.2 is when the servo connector was added to eliminate the solenoid.
Looking at the board it looks like I could wire up a servo from available pins. Just not a nice clean connection like the 1.2 EBB boards on.
OK now the question. Given that I may be able to wire a servo to the board, would I be able to load the 1.2 EBB board firmware and drive a servo based pen arm?
This would save me over $50. and I already have put enough into the EggBot and have nothing to show for it.
Any advice would be appreciated.
