Can I use the motors with encoder in the Mbot2 with Mbot Mega?

Can I use the Mbot2 motors with encoders on the Mbot Mega?

The driver obviously has a port for motors with encoders, but I can’t find many references. I don’t see any blocks for it in the Mblock software, and I don’t quite understand the references in Arduino.

Can anyone clarify this for me? Thanks!

@strideram Not sure, I will test this later if I get a chance. I’m guessing they don’t work with mBot Mega, but they might! 🤷

You need a module (motor driver?) to link the motor to the board. Mega comes with two. It’s the same o es the DC motors attach to.
