Re: mini segway project

Has anyone ever thought about using a servo neat the top of the balancing bot to shift the platform's center of mass? This would probably simplify things code wise, because all you would need is a handler to change the position of the servo, and the robot to always try and balance itself.. instead of the robot trying to balance and modifying the wheel speed to drive which way you want.
