Dear community,
I’m a huge fan of the ESP32 extension for AP. I use a ESP32 dev 4 kit and it’s fantastic. Now I want to turn it up a notch: I want to add wheel encoders. Now the problem:
Do I have aux channels for ESP32, is it something what is integrated yet? Alternatively, since I only need throttle and steering for my rover, Can I use the primary channels except for 1 & 3 and make them to AUX channels?
Your support is very welcomed. Below my ESP32 board definition:
