Re: Controlling 4 gear motors with encoders

How are you controlling four motors with one L298N? Are you driving two motors in parallel? yes Treat those encoder motors as two devices, one DC motor plus one encoder. Plenty of software is available to read encoders. I figured as much but could not see how 4 would be connected to the gpio, was h...

Controlling 4 gear motors with encoders

I am looking into better motors for a robot project. I am using 4 of the classic yellow 6v motors at the moment with a single l298n. I have found these: 'DC 12V 320rpm Encode Gear Reducer Motor Electric Gear Box Motor' (will find em on ebay, banggood etc) I cant find any information about controllin...
