If no ground connection, how does CytRon Motor Controller get a circuit loop from PWM and DIR pins. Anyway. Thanks for writing a great program and design. I’m retired living in Los Angeles and it’s always been my dream to have my own controllable sub.
That’s very interesting. Every time I’ve tried to connect ground on my pi’s, it actually prevents it from working!

SUCCESS and connecTed. Although not mention in the manual, I connected the GROUND pin on the MOTOR Controller to Raspberry Pi GROUND pin. It works!
I made progress using Pi 3 (instead of Pi4. My servo is tilting but no response on all motors. I got all readings in the apps and slides all the buttons in the app. No motor response. Any suggestions plz. It’s been my dream to build an affordable sub.
i bought 4 motor controllers and still not working.
I will asap. , thanks for all the follow ups.
Would you be able to post a photo of your current wiring? It might help if we can see your GPIO pinout.
Good catch! I released that YouTube video when we were running the old Archimedes1 software package. If that’s what you’re running on your sub, then go with the video instructions (these correspond to Assembly Manual v0.1.0) For later versions (anything running Archimedes2), you can follow the instructions in Assembly Manuals v 0.1.1 and v0.1.2 - the wiring instructions will be the same in each. Hope this helps!
So far, I have link to my Android Apps. View and tilt camera, armed motors and see voltages, but motor driver no respond.
