Frequently Asked Questions
No, it's specifically designed to interface with the Droid Master via the included ribbon cable; it won't function independently.
The assignment process is straightforward, typically involving a menu system within the Droid Master itself, though the exact procedure will depend on the parameter being controlled.
The cable's length is adequate for most setups, but those with very large cases or complex routing might find it a little short and consider an extension.
