Compatibility between pypot and ax-18

Hello,

Is it possible to make pypot compatible with ax-18 ?

I did some test with ax-12 but i have a robot with ax-18 which are stronger.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Thot,

Adding support for new motor types is really straightforward. I don’t have any AX-18 motors but I think they have exactly the same registers than the AX-12. Is this correct? So it should be even simpler :smile:

I’ve made a new branch with the modification that should work. Once again, I can’t test it so no guarantee. You can directly check the commit if you prefer.

Let me know if everything works! Do not hesitate to directly pull request the repo if you want to add more motor’s support. Any contribution is welcomed!
I’ll merge this branch into master as soon as you give me positive feedback!

Cheers,
Pierre
