M5Stack BaseX for Mindstorms EV3 and NXT Motors

The BaseX from M5Stack is a base for M5Stack Core modules and controls Mindstorms EV3 motors. The motors are connected to four RJ12 sockets, and angle and speed are read via the motor encoders. In addition there are two servo connectors, a PDM microphone, Port B and Port C as well as a built-in 950 mAh battery. With the included base plate, the BaseX can be built into models made of construction bricks.

Important: The DC socket takes 9 to 12 V, plug 3.5 × 1.35 mm, centre positive. It only supplies the motors; the battery is not charged through it. The battery is charged via the USB-C port of the M5Stack Core.
