Re: ANIMATRONIC TAIL HELP NEEDED

To make what I want to do down to simple thing to do in code is when the MPU6050 is tilted in one way the servo goes that way but when it is tilted the other way servo goes the other way. I need it to work with 2 servos. What I have seen in the different programming languages and the way to do this ...

Re: ANIMATRONIC TAIL HELP NEEDED

I don't have a MPU6050 example. The code you use at the moment should still work. For a pigpio servo example see http://abyz.co.uk/rpi/pigpio/examples.html#Python_servo_demo_py pigpio also offers a pipe interface (as does servoblaster). If that means nothing to you it simply means that you can cont...

Re: ANIMATRONIC TAIL HELP NEEDED

... the problem is if you drive servos right from the pi it makes them Jitter and make a lot of noise because of the pwm is made in the software so when ever you have another program needing more processor it will interrupt the pwm which will cause the servo to make ear splitting sounds. That is no...

Re: ANIMATRONIC TAIL HELP NEEDED

The controller card you were planning to use uses the Adafruit_PWM_Servo_Driver.py The link to the Github code seems to be dead. There is a wiki page describing the controller card. You could take a look at the https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-16-channel-servo-driver-with-raspberry-pi page to ge...

Re: Help! ESP-05 + pi zero = internet

I have read that more then once and what I don't get is what they call the server side? wouldn't the WIFI router be my server side.

Re: Help! ESP-05 + pi zero = internet

NO its not USB. http://i.stack.imgur.com/gSEYz.png There is a picture of what I'm talking about since you didn't know. Plus to answer you back on the second thing you said I'm using my pc to post questions which is totally off topic.

I have hooked the pins from the ESP-05 to the GPIO pins of the Pi.

Help! ESP-05 + pi zero = internet

I have looked and looked and can't find what I want. I bought a Raspberry Pi Zero and I also bought a ESP8266 ESP-05. I hand wired up the ESP-05 to the Pi using the right pin out and everything but for the software side I can't find a thing about using a ESP8266 as a WIFI dongle saving my only USB p...

Auto connecting to wifi for headless use.

For some reason all the ways to get my raspberry pi to connect to wifi using the auto connecting resources I found don't work. I have to manual go in click on wpa_gui and tell it to connect. Can some one help me out so I can get this thing running headless. Everything else is set up like the RDP ser...

Raspbian update inverted colors on raspberry pi B+

I have Raspbian wheezy installed on my raspberry pi B+ when I was doing updates my background and other icons all went from red to blue. I remote desktop into it using XRDP. Picture of the desktop after the update is linked below. http://i394.photobucket.com/albums/pp25/demonclaw92/1f6096cd-46ac-4ce...

Re: Coloration Error Raspberry Pi 2

That sounds like a cabling problem - try reseating the HDMI cable at both ends (You are using HDMI?). Also try another cable. I have the same problem with color but I'm using xrdp to hook to it. I think it's an update because when I was updating mine it started out red and then ran the update the c...
