Hello again! I have not visited here for quite some time. This forum was incredible with the help I was given to get my laser maze up and running.
Now, several years down the road, I am on to another project. I have built a DIY motion simulator for driving games and a roller coaster game.
The software I use to drive my motors also has the ability to output "virtual" speed to an Arduino. I have included a drawing of a basic transistor circuit that I copied from this site. The transistor switches like expected when I close the switch.
My question is, can I use an output pin from an Arduino UNO instead of the switch? The ultimate goal is to use PWM to vary fan speed based on ride speed.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Steve
