Re: Camera Troubles

Nothing in your code jumps out at me but I just don't like the fact that you type cast temp_tilt_servo as an int when you change the servo position then change it back to a unsigned char when finally setting the actual tilt variable. I would suggest however, that you use some sort of sensor to find the actual position of the pan device, at the very least you should use a limit switch or keep track of how many times you have turned left, or right, to be sure you do not break something.
