DC Motor Arduino Tutorial - Elegoo The Most Complete Starter Kit

In this video I continue the Elegoo 'The Most Complete Starter Kit' tutorials, doing the DC Motor tutorial. I ended up doing something cool with the code in this one.
You can find my code for this project on my github: github.com/hadefuwa/elegoo/
Elegoo Arduino Most Complete Kit £50: amzn.to/3EKfdMZ
Elegoo Arduino Basic Kit £15: amzn.to/3mSEpL4
They sell a bunch of other kits as well: amzn.to/31kmK7J

The Elegoo Arduino 'Most Complete Starter Kit' is a really good but slightly expensive piece of kit. I paid around £50 for it on Amazon but totally worth it in my opinion. They come with PDF tutorials allowing anyone to quickly get started using Arduinos and Breadboards. In this video series I will complete all the tutorials for the Most Complete Starter Kit.

love ur video's man, keep on making more. love them

[@boi5275]

thanks for the tutorial! really helped!

[@knightblade99]

Okay so can I hook up 2 motors to the power supply shown in the video ?

[@TheNewWorldTruth]

Where Did u get the lessons from ? Because the CD that came with the kit didn't have instructions. Also does Elegoo have its own OS for coding & programing other than Arduino

[@arielg6352]

Love this video! I’ve been using tweezers to put the wires into board lol 😂

[@HamedAdefuwa]

LOL no! You're joking right?? 😂

[@arielg6352]

@@HamedAdefuwa LMAO. I am being super careful to not damage any of the wires and making sure nothing is plugged in while I do this. 😂 The board is so tiny and trying to do it by hand was annoying. Haha

[@HamedAdefuwa]

Lol bless you, it's better to be how you are. I'm the complete opposite and I've paid for it scarily. At these voltages with the Arduino (5V) you'll be fine though whatever you do. Thanks for watching!

[@magmapowerguy6563]

Well it’s too easy NOT to mess up thou!

where from can i get tge code
?

Nice video

[@HamedAdefuwa]

thank you for watching :)

[@chandrasekharnandamuri5453]

also can you send me the link to the programming where you adjust the speed of the motor it is the finale step for me to finish plz give it to me fast

Hey, Where did you download the lessons to practice?
Thanks in Advance

[@haniboutlat3711]

everyting you need should be here: www.elegoo.com/pages/arduino-kits-support-files

[@bobbybuckley2346]

hey mine does all of that but when its spinning it only slightly spins rather than doing full rotations, the only difference to yours is that im using a 9v battery instead of an adapter, does that change anything?

[@HamedAdefuwa]

erm yeah somethings wrong there, the 9v battery it should work better. higher voltage would help the motor spin more. u sure you're using the motor and not the servo lool unlikely I know

[@Mauricio-wf7se]

Mine does this as well. But it also makes a beeping noise

[@bobbybuckley2346]

@@HamedAdefuwa Thanks! turns out that the motor i was given was soldered really badly on the positive connection, so i have re-soldered it and it works fine

[@bobbybuckley2346]

@@Mauricio-wf7se have you checked the solder connections on your motor? that seemed to be the problem with mine, not sure about the beeping though

[@mdandry]

I just got this kit and am trying this lesson, but I cannot get anything to happen. I have check, unplugged and replugged everything and get no response from the motor. I have tried uploading to both ports available on my computer and still no difference. Any suggestion?

[@HamedAdefuwa]

If you have a multimeter you can check continuity on the motor itself. The solder on mine and others was not great. Or just connect the motor straight to 5V and see if it spins. If it doesn't you'll need to resolder those connections.

[@Merchantofwar]

@@HamedAdefuwa lol i tried this, as soon as i connecred it to the arduino it spun to life, i got startled and the negative wire fell off

[@Skyrem-dm7hj]

​@@Merchantofwar he's not using an arduino. You need to use a elegoo

[@pantsu_theif3287]

@@Skyrem-dm7hj it still works the same

[@oscarvaldovinos6597]

Someone pass the arduino code complete of the motor in the comments xfa because I got lost when they made the corrections please

[@florianwicher]

Doesn't work for me unfortunately. Seems like the motor doesn't have enough power, it is only twitching slightly.

[@HamedAdefuwa]

Try a higher voltage?
