Hi, I’m trying to build an off-road robot from scratch, when comes to motors selection, can I use this calculator to find the required torque for my robot as I saw someone mention this tutorial was for robots on flat surface?
Besides, does the wheelbase and the track width of the robot will also affect the formula, or there were another formulas need to consider?
@Tech49 It’s used for a wheeled robot on an inclined plane. Given that inputting conditions for off road travel are not easy (variety of surfaces and angles), you can use the calculator, but you’ll have to estimate the max angle.
