Backup battery and IR
I have setup the basics for testing our IR system. One of the problems I am having is that the servo does not operate unless I have the backup battery installed but I need the backup battery to run the beacon. Am I missing a step in this whole process. Also can someone post a picture of their working beacon board. I would like to compare what we made to what others have done to see if we made the pin 2 to pin3 switch correctly. It is me and 1 engineer trying to get this team up and running for our second year of competition. Make things in Baby steps.
