Control of Wild Thumper for Slow Crawl?

Community General Discussions
1

Just wondering if anyone has ever set up a control loop that allowed for a command like "slow crawl." From experience a single

PWM setting won't do it. As soon as it gets moving it starts moving *fast*. (Which is cool, but I'd like a full range of speeds). If so did you do this on the controller (in arduino code) or externally from some other code base?

 

Thanks in advance,

Ian

Does your WT have encoders?

If so, you should be able to at least get a sense of speed, and, from there control the velocity.

It’s a pulsed pulse width modulation

I like it :slight_smile:
