Pixy connection issues

I bought a pixy camera for my school project and i’m having a connection difficulty.

strangely enough, it connects fine without the servo plugged in, but keeps connecting and disconnecting when it is. Because of that, registering an object and running pan/tilt demo are piratically impossible.
I am running the pixy drivers and the newest version of pixymon.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Sharon,

this sounds like a power or USB issue. How are you powering Pixy? You might try a shorter / fatter USB cable, and make sure you’re running directly from a computer USB port or powered hub.

Cheers,
Jesse
