Run a motor from Adafruit Flora?
Is it possible to run a motor from an Adafruit Flora? Maybe using something like the Adafruit DRV8871 board with servo attached?

Re: Run a motor from Adafruit Flora?
What kind of motor are you looking to run? The DRV8871 is for DC motors. An RC servo can be run from the Flora directly.

Basically the same way as with an Arduino. You can use the Servo library and attach the servo to any of the digital pins on the Flora:
