Motor tuning updates #100

Closed evanmayer closed 4 months ago

evanmayer commented 4 months ago

Hey, look, it's a commit with the basis for my assertion that the RW spins the other way now and it's ok! This should've been pushed to main a while ago.

Limit the el axis current to 2 amps for ground testing.

Also, increase RW current slew rate for tuning. This makes it a slight bit noisier, but slightly better at following step function changes like we see in small az scans.

Btw, the odd el encoder trim behavior (not the el drift) we experienced last night is explained by compiling this branch and sending it to the FCs. This branch had not had main merged into it since June - it didn't have my default motor encoder trim values programmed in, so az_el_trim was required during pointing.
