Hi all,

In the main Mobiflight web sites refers that Servos and Step Motors are "under development". Can you confirm is it already implemented in this 7.4 version?

Thanks,
Carlos

Hi Carlos,

yes, you're right. Servos and Steppers are already implemented in MobiFlight 7.4.

Under this topic https://www.mobiflight.com/forum/topic/806.html you will find a tutorial for a stepper and above under Tutorials (main menu) you will find one for a servo.

Edit: Please note that a stepper draws about 210mA quiescent current. It offers here an external power supply. Of it 5V and GND to the stepper and the GND again to the MEGA, then also works the control and the power for the stepper is not on the USB bus

Thanks Stephan.

Can you tell if there is something about "user or custom code" in newer versions of mobiflight?

Thanks
