Add PWM_SKID Mode #451

Closed derDieDasJojo closed 10 months ago

derDieDasJojo commented 10 months ago

Variant

PWM

Control type

None

Control mode

None

What can we do to make the firmware better?

currently PWM Mode meanst: Channel 1: steering, Channel 2: speed. But I need something like Channel 1: Speed Left, Channel 2: Speed right. Reason: I want to controll the Moving Object with an Pixhawk Flight Controller. But the ardupilot software only supports PWM Left and PWM Right Signals for Skid Steering. So I need the Motor Controller to understand this classical way of controlling the motors.

Describe suggestions or alternatives you have considered

So I prupose to add another Mode called PWM_SKID that uses Channel 1 as Speed Left input and Channel 2 as Speed Right input.

Search tank steering in the wiki.

It looks like the parameter TANK_STEERING does what I want to do. Thanks for your support. I will close the Ticket.
