Is it possible, with only the BotBoarduino, to control the Tri-Track Chassis and 2-3 servos? Ideally I want to use the Tri-Track Chassis with the base and a pan/tilt device on top of it but no arm or anything like that. From what i’ve read it seems like it is possible. I’ve done similar with 2 stepper motors with upwards of 3 servos at the same time on a standalone Arduino board but I didn’t know if a SCC module is needed for this product. I read in another thread, specially about the Johnny5 + Arduino, that to control the J5 system you would need a SCC module but for me that may be overkill for this application. Would a single BotBoarduino be ok for the idea above?
Certainly, though you will still need a dual motor controller like the Sabertooth.

The pan/tilt servos can be connected directly to the board.
Thanks for the info and the link. Then to connect to the BotBoarduino, is it analog output to S1/S2 or would it be serial connection via tx/rx? Probably a noob question but I just want to make sure.
Actually, easiest way is to use R/C (via digital pins). Be sure to set the DIP switches correctly.
Thanks for the advice! I got a lot of the parts today so I will post with updates/issues along the way
