You can then stop the motion by using a getmotor set command. This command will read the servos current position and set it tp that position effectively stopping the motion. I suggest using just the servo or servos in motion and not read/ set the others as there is always a little backlash.

I just got a Robonova and found this forum for the first time just recently. Sweet to see a bunch of other people so into this stuff. Anyways, I've played around with programming and am trying to use my hobby radio to control the Robonova, since I can get more than just on/off control of basic functions.

I would like to have a movement occur when I move the control stick, but then stop dead when I release. The problem is that the "MOVE" command will complete its movement before looking at the next command. The "SERVO" command will do what I want but you can only control one servo at a time which means many, many lines of code when controlling multiple servos. Is there an easier way of doing this that I'm not seeing? I basically need to interrupt the move command to send the servo to a new position when directed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Antoine
