<p>I have been utilizing this control board for a little over two years. The board and components are very reliable. The programming for this is very simple and much like Arduino. I have completed 3 projects with this controller, utilizing 13 or more Dynamixals, about 3-5 sensors, and the XBee Module slot has come in handy for all my wireless needs. This board comes in at a very low price making it affordable for my projects. I wish I had a carton of these controllers on hand!</p>
