USB2Dynamixel
$49.90 |
The USB2Dynamixel is our most popular AX/RX controller. The USB2Dynamixel passes Dynamixel commands from a PC USB port to a Dynamixel network. A separate power supply is required since a PC USB port can not provide enough current to drive an AX/RX network. See the specs page page for Dynamixel power requirements. If you r project requires sensor input, consider using the Propeller. The USB2Dynamixel can not be programmed and requires PC or compatible device to send properly formatted Dynamixel commands.

CM-5
$145.00 |
The CM-5 programming bundle contains everything needed to bring your AX-12 robotic projects life. The motion editor, terminal application, and behavioral software programmer interface with the CM-5 unit and allow you to create very complex movements with a mouse click. We recommend this package for those that don't want to program.
