Single analog joystick, servo pan tilt, with Botboarduino

Hello,

I’m trying to use a single analog joystick to control two servos (basic pan tilt) with my botboarduino. Unfortunately I can’t find any videos/tutorials on how to wire the single joystick with the botboarduino. I’ve looked around quite a bit but haven’t had any luck. Any help you can provide would be great. Thanks in advance!

Hi,

The BotBoarduino is Arduino based so you can follow a tutorial for the Arduino and it will work on this board too.

For example:

And here’s an example with two servos:

Hope this helps,

Hello,

Thank you so much for the response. My apologies for the newcomer question, but I guess what I’m not clear on, is where the inputs from the analog joystick would go specifically on the botboarduino. Do they go near where the inputs for the PS2 controller reside?

Can I plug those inputs into section 8 or 11 or does it even matter?

I very much appreciate your help!

Since a joystick sends an analog value you will need to use the analog input on the botboarduino, on the picture you shared they are next to the number 12 (labeled 0-5).
