Hey bro, I just wanted to say thanks a lot for your videos and giving us a piece of your brain. I got a job at Tesla as a controls engineer about 6 months ago and I still come back to watch your videos and learn something new every time. I’m grateful to come across your channel. You definitely have helped transition the world to sustainable energy 😎 keep the videos coming bud!

Great video, Hega. When you said you don't have much money, I remembered a joke my boss once said about a man being robbed. The robber said "Your money or your life", and the man said "Take my life, please, I really need the money". That's basically it.

I don't know, perhaps it will be said in next videos. Yet, the most valuable advantage of UDTs, it is oppotunity to be passed entirely to another memory area or to a block. For example to InOut of a certain block. Hope, it will be also explained, why it is used InOut in a block. Extremely difficult stuff...)))

Thank you for the outstanding videos, these are a great help in planning for an implementation. One aspect of the UDT that was not covered was retention memory. For example if you have a mixer, it can have a few parameters that are set and some parameters that are retention, I.e enabled, speed. In UDT I see the the whole struct can be set as retention memory. Is it possible only to set certain members as retention memory ?

it's really an useful video for me. Could you please also make motion control video with servo motor? Thank a lot
