In this small project I will show you how to build a custom ESC/Servo Tester. Along the way I will show you how to setup the timer of the ATmega328P in order to create the required control signal. At the end I will then add tactile switches, a potentiometer and an LCD to adjust the control signal easily. Let's get started!
