Replace Steering servo #191

Open Carolf27 opened 1 year ago

Carolf27 commented 1 year ago

The steering servo that came with the car doesn't have enough torque for the load of the all car, so we need to replace it with a new one with higher torque

Carolf27 commented 1 year ago

image These are the calculations we ( @Carolf27 @joaoafc ) made to determine the necessary torque for the servo So now we are looking for servos with a torque of ~20kgcm

Carolf27 commented 1 year ago

After some reasearch of servos with 20kgcm available we chose this one with 30kgcm https://pt.aliexpress.com/item/1943129663.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.1.3681e8e0uvJwUz&algo_pvid=8bbb8ba7-18dd-48fa-928e-6ef350a661ce&aem_p4p_detail=2023041208160913823958141364440024632119&algo_exp_id=8bbb8ba7-18dd-48fa-928e-6ef350a661ce-0&pdp_npi=3%40dis%21EUR%2126.25%2110.43%21%21%21%21%21%40212272e216813125697962592d071b%2112000029328684232%21sea%21PT%210&curPageLogUid=XSR2mqW8ECIU&ad_pvid=2023041208160913823958141364440024632119_1&ad_pvid=2023041208160913823958141364440024632119_1

Maybe we should opt for the 40kgcm one because of the small price difference

PedroMS3 commented 1 year ago

the issue wont be closed for the moment being, there is still the the need to calibrate the servo via programming
