MPE – 24M Motor Grader Build

[footprint]

Thanks for the update, had me worried you were buried in a pile of swarf.
JensR, Ive been working on a prototype, ive got 4-axis off an old controller to a PC front end then sent back to control 4 servos and 16 latched digital outputs.
Am still having some comms dramas but after some reading theres a memory leak in the USB driver but should be able to find a work around. With this scheme it would be fairly easy to have an ardunio on each end and an xbee for the TX/RX, and either no PC or a laptop for monitoring & feedback. Due to my student budget im waiting to pickup that mutiplexing IC and the xbees, but ive got the bare bones going for now.
