Firmware update #10

Why aren't you providing the firmware updates? I understand you may not want to share the code but can't you at least provide the compiled code so we can update the firmware?

Still a relevant question.

donquichotte commented 1 month ago

Is it possible to share the firmware code for the SERVO57D, like you did e.g. for the SERVO42B? I would like to add some functionality (CAN heartbeat to shut the motors down if the CAN communication is interrupted), and debug some issues (it appears that the motor stops responding when querying position with ~200Hz).

@donquichotte The SERVO42B code base was :

* Based on nano_stepper project by Misfittech
* Copyright (C) 2018  MisfitTech LLC.

Until someone dumps the Nations chip firmware we don't know if this is also based on the Misfittech GPL code. I have a hunch that they did not perform a complete clean room rewrite. They are likely in violation of the GPL.
