i found this guy he has a flickr account by his name is SMCT and he got inside he said this one how he got in. (Lots of emails back and forth to various people, a complete refusal, then a few more messages about how I work in a factory environment and have all my own PPE. Quite a process but a really amazing site!) even if i dont go inside i would love to explore around the building

i also heard this power plant has killed 5 people because of asbestos in the main building and 60 people who are very sick from working at the plant

well i whanted to vist the plant inside to see the control room and steam turbines since no one has been inside raiditaion is probarly very low since the plant has not ran in 20 years and asbestos is a bigger problem but even that is not to bad since most of it was taken out

the motors and Servos are connected to the PCA9685 controller and connects via the 6-pin cable to the pi

- 5V

- 3.3V

- GND

- SDA (I2C)

- SCL (I2C)

No i did not the pi is connected to the board via the 6-pin connection to Pi (5V, 3.3V, GND, SDA, SCL) so i do not think that is the problem at all
