RED Dragon 2 20M2 / 18M2 Picaxe

This kit includes the bare PC board only and documents only. Your can add a PICAXE 18M2 or 20M2 Pic Microcomputer and add either a 4, 6, or 8 channel RF remote control system for inputs. Plus you can add up to 2 L293D chips for motor drivers. So you can control up to 4 motors reverse and forward from the picaxe. Please note the output voltage to the motor will be about 3/4 the motor supply voltage. So an 8 volt motor supply would be about 6 volts at the motor when it is activated. The PICAXE is easy to program with a standard serial cable and a windows computer with a serial port. I will include the software and PICAXE programming manuals on a CD. This kit will require soldering, sample wiring diagrams are included.

The Red Dragon 2 board is a PICAXE 18M2 or 20M2 PIC programmable microcomputer with onboard memory for 1800 lines of code. 2 motor driver chips you to have 4 motors under program control forward and reverse. The board has contacts designed to solder on inexpensive 4, 6, or 8 channel RF remote control receiver boards. The 8 channel remote can only be used with the 20M2 Picaxe. You can press a button on the small remote and it will be detected on PICAXE pins and can be acted upon under program control. I include the full specs of the board so you can experiment beon the motor driver and build a full system if you wish.

This kit only includes the board and the guide on CD. You do not need the PICAXE chip or a remote receiver board to use just motor driver. Please note that control inputs for motors #1 and #2 are at the PICAXE chip socket pins. Control inputs for the motors #3 and #4 are the 4 pin header connections along the edge of the board. If you only wish to control one motor you can omit one of the L293D chips.
