Good to hear you have pwm clutch in the new motor.ino :-)
Searching found your post with this:
pypilot_client servo.clutch_pwm=50
if pypilot is running
if not running edit ~/.pypilot/pypilot.conf
Does pypilot need to be updated for this to work?
Is that percent or with respect to 255 on full?
Looking at the photo of the new motor controller in your store I do not see clutch output.
Is it on the board or is the $8 clutch option external?
