There is little room in that block for verbiage. I asked for the sentence to be added, “If you are using an FTDI adapter cable, you must change the “latency” property to its minimum in the VCP driver for the best performance.” Because at the same time it tells the builder which of the two driver choices they need to be installing.
Perhaps this would be better…
If you are using an FTDI adapter cable, please install the VCP (Virtual Com Port) driver and change the “latency” property to it’s minimum.
I think that is better. But maybe it would be good to add something like: to do this see the tutorial: viewtopic.php?t=4702
There are probably better ones than this one, or maybe a sticky forum post that gives instructions on how to change these for different OSs.
The main reason I mention this is my gut tells me that there may be lots of people interested in this kit as it is a less expensive introduction to a hex robot…
You guys could just pack your own drivers after confirming them working.
Both 32bit and 64bit. I’d do it myself if i had the components in question. Though i only use XP 32bit and windows 7 64bit at the moment.
I have an idea related to the AH2, tell me what you think.
An AH2 to BH3 upgrade pack.
It would include the additional 6 servos, the 12 C brackets and legs. And screws. All the parts needed to upgrade directly from the AH2 to the BH3.
I’m not sure if the C brackets of the BH3 are compatible with the AH2 based on the pictures, but i’m sure you guys can figure it out.
It’s hard to see from the pictures, even when i zoomed in.
I did notice the second servos had different brackets though.
Still, all a kit would be, is, you guys pick out the parts and servos needed and set it as a bundle or pack.
Essentially when they add it to cart, it would add the individual pieces needed to the cart for them, then they can add or remove the parts as needed.
Either that or just have a list available of parts needed to upgrade from AH2 to BH3, so people aren’t guessing. It’s just an idea.
Poor people think of clever ways to spend money, if they had some to spend.
Nice to see that you’re still improving your 12-servo hex line-up. This looks very attractive to the budget-minded roboticists out there! Thumbs up Jim… 8)
