Frequently asked questions

How to set motor speed?
Use `motor.runSpeed(value)` with `value` between -1023 and 1023.

Why is the resistor needed?
To stabilize the encoder signal.

Does the motor work with batteries?
Check the maximum allowed voltage on the datasheet.

Can I use another microcontroller?
Yes, but check compatibility on the datasheet.
