#Troubleshooting Iron Man MK85 (FranklyBuilt)

Hi all,

I've been trying to replicate Franks pt.3 video of Iron Man helm motorization and am running into issues, in that absolutely nothing seems to be happening. I believe I have wired everything right, as pictured I've wired only the servo power and power in for the NANO to the USB Power + wire. I've created a ground base which has all components GND wires going into it as pictured on schematic, I've got the eyes, button etc all wired up correctly, with the 2 signal wires for the servo's also, and have followed the instructions for each component to be plugged into each pin correctly as he describes.

The only thing is that the code which is on the Github link seems to be different now to the version he used. The code I have includes modules for Audio/missile bay and all these other things, and I am unsure of the section where the pins are defined.

I'm using an Elegoo NANO, and had successfully flashed the drive as pictured with the serial monitor showing activity, after having some initial trouble getting it to flash.. My only prognosis is that the code is just not right anymore for that tutorial as it's all changed now, unless anyone else has any ideas?

Please help 😦

Many thanks
Kneel

So I just rigged mine up. Servos need to be on Pins 9/10. If you're doing sound and missles they are on 7/8 for sound, 4 for the missles. You can check all the pins by clicking config.h at the top of arduino IDE. LED eyes go to pins 3/6 in my code. Check all the pins and wiring.

Frank needs to update his video 🤣

so while testing components, I ended up burning out both of the LED eyes somehow, they just stopped working after a few tests to ensure they were in a circuit. I would have thought they could handle 5v/2.1a?
