4wd rover - PWM input #292

Closed JAR4x4 closed 2 years ago

JAR4x4 commented 2 years ago

Hi, I'm building a rover with an additional aoutopilot. I need to control the four wheels individually as the autopilot will take care of the tank style skid steering.

Is individual PWM control supported by the firmware?

Hi,

It's available in the last update on my fork, I am still testing but will commit soon. Maybe you can help testing it. You have to use TANK_STEERING parameter. Why not using USART instead of PWM ? PWM is really sensitive to noise

@Candas1 , thanks for your reply!

I will test your fork in the weekend if i manage to assemble my test platform.

The ardupilot autopilot outputs PWM for each channel. I dont know how I can implement USART...

Candas1 commented 2 years ago

Is it motor pwm or servo pwm?

JAR4x4 commented 2 years ago

RC servo / ESC PWM
