    Red face maybe its high on power

    thanks for the replies guys.. i never knew servo motors would do that on start up.. never had it happened before so found it strange. Is it common though?

    this is how i have written the pulse to the motor:


    Servomotor:
    pulsout portb.0, b(0) 'Send current servo 1 position out

    pause 5 '5 milisecond delay to generate 50 Hz signal
    return 'To servomotors
    '-------------------


    That's like a standard common way of writting the pulsout code isn't it? Although i might consider separating the power supply to the pic and the servo motor but that is really a strange thing to do and adds more weight to the robot.

    @Acetronics
    Would u mind if i PM you later on to further discuss this topic related to another project of mine which took forever to complete. Again it deals with servo motors. Let me know.

    Cheers guys for the feedback. will have a tweak at the project later on. oh is the Code tags available in the forum? can't seem to get it to work
