L298N Motor Driver and Matek H743 Wing

Help & Support Robot Parts

Hi all, I hope this isn’t a ridiculous question, I’m building a rover from scratch and was planning on using 3 L298N Drivers to run 6 wheels with a Mega 2560 with a sensor shield 2.0. But I was wondering where a modern flight controller comes in like a Matek H743 Wing running Ardurover. Can it run the drivers directly, as in do I need the Arduino?

Thanks, appreciate any info.

Hi all, just an update, it would appear that in order to use ArduPilot and a proper flight controller for a rover the system needs to use Brushed ESC’s, one per motor, instead of motor drivers.
