How do I control the Spike ?

I could only make a motor turn one way or stop turning at all. how do i turn it in the other way?

do I connect the spike to the RC using a PWM output or a digital output?

how do i control it through the software?

Both Bob and Katie's posts are correct. I will try to elaborate.

The spike must be connected to a relay output on your robot controller.

Modify the default RC code to control the spike. As an example, the following code will cause a motor that is connected to a Spike that is connected to relay output 3 on the RC to run backwards:

	relay3_fwd = 0;
	relay3_rev = 1;

Be sure to read the documentation Katie posted and follow directions for wiring precisely!

Good luck!
