This is the behavior I would expect coming from other libraries that did the same.\r\n\r\nHowever, with cylon, I cannot seem to get the motor to spin backwards. Setting a negative number, or anything below 90 just stops the wheels. \r\n\r\nWith 90 as neutral, I would expect 0-89 as backwards movement, and 91-180 as forward movement.\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/hybridgroup/cylon/issues/comments/128140022","html_url":"https://github.com/hybridgroup/cylon/issues/307#issuecomment-128140022","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/hybridgroup/cylon/issues/307","id":128140022,"user":{"login":"edgarsilva","id":518231,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/518231?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/edgarsilva","html_url":"https://github.com/edgarsilva","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edgarsilva/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edgarsilva/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edgarsilva/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edgarsilva/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edgarsilva/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edgarsilva/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edgarsilva/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edgarsilva/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edgarsilva/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-08-05T20:34:16Z","updated_at":"2015-08-05T20:34:16Z","body":"mmm.. maybe the period in the servo library might be incorrect for the motors, 50hz rating is too slow. You can also try the the motor driver, the `speed` method works as PWM at a higher freq, around 2000 by default I think. I'm trying to find a motor to test this myself, I might have one shortly."}}
