Hi
I have been reading you tutorial about powering the Motor Shield, but i have a hard time understanding it. I don't know when and how to power the shield?
Altso:
Can I use these DC motors with the shield?
Can I use this servo with the shield?
How can i add sensors and so?
Thanks!

Re: Motor shield and power
Both the gearmotor and the servo you link should be compatible with the shield.
The suggested voltage for the gearmotor is 4.5v. It will probably work fine with a supply in the 5-9v range.
