Why is HT07 faster? #68

Closed walkermburns closed 7 months ago

walkermburns commented 7 months ago

We need to parse the old code to figure out why mode 4 was so much faster than 1 on HT07 and figure out what is limiting power on HT08.

This could be mechanical (seals maybe but unlikely), so we need to figure out a way we can directly A/B test both cars and collect data (super simple torque controller w/ no power limit).

Daq should immediately try to get mini TCU working so we can do this comparison, but at the very least, we should test qualitatively.

We can also figure out the issue with old TCU so that we can get handsfree data recording working on HT07 again.

@shaynoorani fixed this with commit a41fe114

The issue was improper torque scaling on the setpoints command which maxed our our torque at 10Nm
