Re: Electrical / Software test bed
Window motors are great for test beds, because you can easily see what direction they are turning without adding wheels.
We try to use the same type of controller/relay as we have on the robot to reduce/eliminate the changes needed between the testbed and the actual robot.
We have also included feedback on some of our test beds (often manually activated limit switches). We usually start with about twice as big a board as it looks like we'll need, and end up filling it by the end of the season.
