Guys,

Last week I had PICkit Assembly code and HI-TECH C code working.

I plucked down $250 for PICBASIC. This is what is not working. It compiles but refuses program. It says that it can not find the programmer. I think its programs are duplicates of what came with the Debug Express package. Some how they are getting confused.

I have a second RC car. It is toy level. Both drive wheels and steering are driven by motors. It is easy to control such a car by PIC. All it needs to do is ON and OFF forward, ON and OFF reverse, ON and OFF steer left, ON and OFF steer right. OFF + OFF makes it steer straight. The steering mechanism has a physical limit mechanism. Controlling the above can be done with four DPDT switches. The car carries 7.5 volts worth of AA batteries.

Back to getting PIC BASIC working..

Thanks,
Ken
