Ep 4. We Have a Brain! (Microcontroller)

This is episode 4 in the Minn Kota step by step wireless remote +, smart features series. In this episode, we're using what we learned last week and adding the brain of our project, a microcontroller! We'll still use mechanical switches, some digital signals, relays and digital potentiometer to now control our motor. We're adding both hardware and software changes!
