A basic but useful example on how to use a microchip.
-
you could run also this USB system for programming and serial emulation through the USB in Linux. Research on google about SanUSB linux. There is also folders in 4shared.
-
what is the code you typed in?
-
you could run a GLCD with USB connection to PC with that !

Nice. The 18F4550 is a bit of overkill for something like this (a 555 timer would do). I'm guessing this is one of a series of tutorials, and more advanced projects follow? The '4550 can actually run Microchip's TCP/IP stack and serve simple web pages...

Perhaps you can show us how to do it with a 10 pin SOIC? Me personally, I'm going to redo it using the PIC16F946 which is a 64 pin monster with built in LCD controller. How's that sound?

You could use this setup for that but it's a bit overkill. It would be better to include that in the ecological code of your robot.
To OP - great project, keep up the good work, but I suggest using an electronic tweaker tool rather than a metal screwdriver in the future when adjust trim pots and caps, especially around high voltage or lots of amps (not the case here but it's a good habit to get into).
I fail to see the humor in that.
Are you suggesting he should go out and buy another controller with fewer pins, just to play with this experiment?
Maybe a smaller breadboard too? And shorter wires?
