I will follow this up with some technical specs. But for now behold the beautiful Bot Propeller!

The demo board is missing two connectors, but it's essentially done and ready for testing! :D

Looks great. But as you mentioned it looks like it is missing the power and USB connectors. Once those are hooked up, you should have a lot of fun testing it out. Let me know if you need any help. It may take me awhile to refresh myself in SPIN :shock:

Awesome! This looks like a much better alternative to the Propeller Servo Controller, as it actually has connections for sensors (from what I see). When are you going to tease us with more details?

That looks pretty cool. Was it intended to be connected to the Bot Board II?

It's more like an option that would be used in place of it.

We've run into some technical snags. I've got a plan B. Wish I knew more about how much longer it will be.
