The picture and video cloud be found here.
So i thought it would be cool to run this motor with a PWM tecknik using a ARDUINO UNO R3. Before getting this unit running, i had to do some digging and run some trial and error. This unit consist of an LCD SHIELD, a HALL EFFECT SENCOR, a potentiometer, some diode, resistors, capacitors, jumpers and some other small parts.
Hers the code to make it run. Its basically two code's combined into one.
The code is not mine, but i did some alteration to make it work with the LCD to fit the jumpers.
Hopes This helps.
