Since then we've been testing out our software on a skeleton with one drive motor, one servo, and one proof-of-concept armlike thing with position feedback. As soon as the real drive base is ready for a brain transplant, we'll be driving again -- assuming everyone is using the same chart for input and output signal connections.
