Hi. Which shields do you use for the eVOLVER? I don’t see a particular manufacturer listed in documentation and I’m wondering if mine is causing problems.

Thanks!

Hello!  
Did you ever get a reply? I’m searching for the correct shield for the motherboard and for the raspberry pi.

Hi Eduarda,

This one should work for the raspberry pi, just make sure you _ **do not** _ populate the 120 ohm resistor between the A and B pins.
