Work Completed

  • we had some trouble getting the testing going, but eventually we found that  the smart dashboard had the place to adjust speed numbers
    • chris and nolan recommend that electrical/programming work on tuning the PID for our 5:1 gearbox
  • we tried different speeds and found that 6000( on the dashboard) got us results of 3.5 seconds to retract, about 8 in per sec
  • we found that the cables on poly were too short, so we are extending the  CAN wires of the Talon SRX and made extensions for the power cables
  • we set up the prototype between two tables, ready for load testing tommorow

Challenges

  • short poly cables
  • weren't sure how to run the motor at a constant speed

Work for Next Meeting

test for load, etc

try to get cad for full design

 

On Schedule?
