This fifth part of the OwlBot project will involve setting up its ability to perform mechanical movements. We will be using a pair of solenoids to move wings we’ll design and make later in the build process, and a DC motor that will have a propeller attached to its shaft, which we’ll use as an extra form of movement on our rigid plastic owl that we’re using for the body of the OwlBot.

Called it an "upgrade", but actually just added to what we already had. So, what we’ll do in this part of the project is add another supply voltage to our circuit, as well as keep our original 9V battery source to power the Arduino. Follow along at the link below!
