Sorry for the gap in programming, I’m back today with an update on the DB1 Robot project and to announce something NEW here in the DroneBot Workshop.

NEW - The DroneBot Workshop Forums! Join us today at forum.dronebotworkshop.com
Had a bit of a setback but I’m back in the workshop today to update you on the status of the DB1 Robot project.
The big announcement is a new addition here in the workshop - the DroneBot Workshop Forums. They are up and working right now, and you can join by going to https://forum.dronebotworkshop.com. We already have some great discussions going on, so come on in and have some fun!
Originally I wanted to have a forum for all DB1 builders and robotics enthusiasts to be able to exchange information, so there is a forum specifically dedicated to DB! And another one for all of your other robotics projects. As well, there are forums to discuss all aspects of DIY electronics - something for everyone!
The DB1 controller code is well underway, and in a few days I'll be putting it all up on GitHub. I’ll share the repository link in the next episode, as well as on the forum and in the newsletter.
In this episode, I go over a bit of the code, the MovePWM function. I’ll show you how the function works, and how to use optional parameters in an Arduino function.
And, of course, we’ll take a peek at the forum!
Again I apologize for not releasing a video for a few weeks, I also want to make you aware that during the summer I may miss the occasional one. But with the code on GitHub and a forum to exchange information we’ll still keep this project moving!
Next week we’ll start adding navigation sensors and wiring to the robot.
Hope to see you on the forum!
Bill
