Re: Tracking beacon without servo

So now that I've found out you can only use 2 servo's I needed some way of getting an angle to the beacon without using one. I'm not familiar with position encoders, but I'm going to look into it. If you can get good enough angular resolution, it can be used for this purpose. Thanks for the input.
Paul,

I'm told that FIRST may re-think the two servo rule in light of your application.
