Orangutan X2 Released

May 1, 2007 - The Orangutan X2 robot controller is available! This robot controller incorporates our dual high-power motor driver carrier to deliver enough power to drive a 1/10th-scale monster truck, yet the twin-PCB design allows for an outline smaller than a credit card. To help you manage all this power, the main PCB has two microcontrollers: a main user mega644 AVR and an auxiliary mega168 that controls most of the built-in hardware. The mega168 also functions as a programmer for the main processor, so no external programmer is necessary. Get started on that SRS Robo-Magellan entry!
