Motor Controller 55#
Introduction#
The Motor Controller 55 (MC55) is used to control standard DC motors.

Below is a list of available blocks:
spin MC55 – Spins a DC motor forward or reverse until stopped.
spin MC55 at voltage – Spins a DC motor using a specific voltage level.
stop MC55 – Stops the DC motor immediately.
set MC55 velocity – Sets the motor’s spin speed as a percentage.
set MC55 stopping – Sets how the motor behaves when stopping.
spin MC55#
The spin MC55 block spins a connected DC motor in a specified direction using the current motor velocity.
