The test isn't fair under no-load conditions, because then the motor just spins when you give it any signal. Are you sure the performance is the same when you have a full operating load? This would not make sense; I would guess that this would mean (...) (28 years ago, 11-Mar-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | non-linear motor speed problem

I am using servos converted to plain gearmotors as the motive power for my baby bot. Finally I worked out how to add shaft encoders to them. (Found a small opto switch to poke through the inside of the case on the first gear). The servos I am using (...) (28 years ago, 11-Mar-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Yes, i do / Ja ist schon gut :-) (...) Here i suspect your speed regulator chip. (...) Servo's brauchen nur ein wenig strom -> i really suspect your speed regulator chip. (...) Try swapping your speed controller chip. Groetjes, Hans (28 years ago, 10-Mar-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Adam, I have it working, but I want to tidy it up a bit. At the moment it uses 2 op-amp stages, I think it can work with one. After all, it's just a precision diode! I will put something on in a few days. Fred, I do not have schematic capture (...) (28 years ago, 10-Mar-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Some IR Leds have graphs from the manufacturer showing angular characteristics. I've seen some nice ones in linear and polar plots of angle vs. intensity. See if you can get the specs of the LEDs you order. This may help you with your configuration. (...) (28 years ago, 9-Mar-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
