servo_with_joystick's Introduction

Servo with Joystick

Image of 2 servos attached with long wires to an Arduino out of frame. And a joystick attached with even longer wires to the same Arduino.

Parts:

  • Arduino (an Uno should be enough)
  • A joystick
  • 2 Servos (small enough that your arduino can power them both without an external power source)
  • A breadboard (only if you want to see the wires better)

Setup:

  1. Attach the joystick
    1. VCC to 5v
    2. GND to ground
    3. HOR to an analogue input (default is 0)
    4. VER to an analogue input (default is 1)
  2. Connect the servos
    1. red to 5v
    2. black/brown to ground
    3. yellow/orange
      • X-axis/horizontal into a digital input (default is 4)
      • Y-axis/vertical into a digital input (default is 3)
  3. Change your settings in main.cpp
    • SERIAL_PRINT if you would like Serial.print debug messages
    • XPINOUT if you use a different pin for the horizontal servo
    • YPINOUT if you use a different pin for the vertical servo
    • XPININ if you use a different analogue pin for the horizontal input from the joystick
    • YPININ if you use a different analogue pin for the vertical input from the joystick
  4. Upload the program
  5. Control the servos :)
