After i was unable to get the thanos board to work properly, i decided to give the kangaroos a try. They are pretty cheap and easy to set up. I also changed the analog feedback sensors to digital quadrature encoders. They are more precise, but need a homeing procedure during start to find their position. So i added seperate limit-switches for the kangaroos.
