Robo-Tank v6.0 is Ready - Now v6.5

[Rob F]

Hi Rob, I've updated my test setup to 6.4v. It seems to works just fine...
I've only 2 questions: Under Configure Ports - advanced mode there will be an option to run Robo-Tank with custom boards? so no name for any GPIO and all user settable...
Will you add support for more than 1 PCA9685 expander?
Thank you!

Simone

Hi Simone, good to hear. I doubt I'll support custom boards at least not for some time as there's too much to do still. The advanced configure ports is what you use, just need to ignore the Robo-Tank name. It's very important to never change the name in the database, it's the "portName" field in pinsAvailable. When a user changes controller versions it looks at these names so it can reassign them to the corresponding pin.

You can connect multiple pca9685's, shouldn't be any limit just need to make sure you change the I2C address before connecting it.
