Scorpion Mini Dual R/C DC Motor Driver

Hi, wondering if someone can shed some light on my situation. I’m creating a tank drive for a robot using the Scorpion Mini Dual R/C DC Motor Driver, and Flysky Fs-i6x Receiver and Transmitter. I have the mixing setup correctly on the Transmitter but I can’t get both motors turning in the same direction.

For mixing, Channel 1 (drive) as the master and Channel 2 (steer) as the slave, pos mix -100. neg mix -100 combined with a second mix, where Channel 2 is the master and Channel 1 the slave with +100 for both pos and neg for the FlySky i6-x transmitter.

As I push the throttle up or down I only get one motor turning at a time. The MIX jumper is connected to ON position???

Hi @ppecch ,

Do you have any LED error condition on the board?

4

Yes the LED is on

OK, if it does not blink then there is no error. What happens when you remove the jumper for mix mode?

Jumper is soldered on, I would have to cut it to see what happens. Should I attempt it

I thought it was a normal jumper easy to remove. It seems that you would have to unsolder it, but not sure now if it would change anything good. Do you have another receiver/transmitter pair to test with?
