Ticking sound in tow axis servo motor #57

Sounds like maybe an electrical arc or something occurring once per rev at slow speed. Could be a result of tuning during RM2 experiment but should be checked out.

Pete-

Can the drive belt be detached and the motor be driven at low rpm for testing?

Tried reducing Kp_v from 10 to 6 (its setting before the RM2 towing), with no change. Will take the back cover off the motor and inspect after disassembling RVAT FBG experiment.
