It would be really interesting to see one of these combined with a tiny gyro, maybe even built-in to the same board. Help keep some of those squirrely bots under control.
I have tried that before but the issue is receiver gyros expect a steering servo ch2 and throttle ch1 that doesn't get modified by the gyro so in practice it just makes like the left wheel freak out when your bot rotates instead of correcting both
@@JustCuzRobotics If the WEKA is already doing mixing itself, it should be able to apply some correction, even to tank inputs. It would just take a little coding.
I like using a little liquid flux on my solder joints when soldering to a PCB. But you have enough room on the bigger pads so add the extra solder without it turning into a huge solder blob.
I'm very impressed by this, especially the clever firmware. I'm also curious about what motor drivers it uses, as 20 amp drivers are somewhat optimistic in a tiny package like that (maybe it uses something really clever, or a driver chip that I don't know about)
It is using automotive full bridge motor drivers rated officially for 21 amps. I believe this style is used for windshield wiper motors and other actuators on 12-24V. Connor knows more details than I do tho.

Just bought one of these. Gonna try it out over the dual fingertech tiny esc's. Looking forward to it.
It's small, efficient, lighter than the last, and very useful for smaller pound robots.

Gyro would be something interesting to consider though I'm not sure how it would work for tank drive
I would expect it works ok with a receiver with built-in gyro.
