This video shows how to use an analog joysticks with an Arduino to control the speed and direction of DC motors. This is a companion video to our Arduino ROV project. This video shows how to build the ROV: https://youtu.be/wRco4tGXrzw, but you can use this circuit for any other project with brushed DC motors. You can find written instructions, including a parts list, circuit diagram, and example code, on the Science Buddies website:…
