Not that a 50% duty cycle doesn't mean the motor will run at half the speed. There is no one-to-one correlation. | |

To answer that we would have to see the code and how you wired things up. At the end of the day analogWrite writes to the registers, so there is no direct reason not to use it. A possible issue is the amount of power available for the motor. A schematic would help sort things out.
