 		 #172612 - Not really working...
Responding to: ???'s previous message
I tried the lookup table method. It works for three servos but as soon as I interface the fourth one, there is chaos.
1) Does the quality of the servo motors have something to do with it?
Maybe I can purchase better servos.
2) While I was checking out solutions to the problem before posting this thread on 8052, some of the folks on AVRfreaks seem to have managed to control some 8 servos.
3) What could be the concept behind the SSC-32 servo controller, which claims to control 32 servo motors simultenously?
