Hello, all, as I’ve been working on my custom robotic arm I’ve have noticed significant discrepancies between the preview image and the actual robot, and especially between the estimated times of the program and that of the actual motion. Due to the robotic arm’s joints not being directly connected to the servos (but instead by 4:1 and 5:1 gears), it is impossible for me to be able to use the program effectively in creating macros for the motions, and, although I have tried the naïve approach exporting and importing to and from Excel to try to work out a formula and apply delays (so the robot’s step is actually complete before it moves on to the next one), it is rather inefficient and inaccurate. Is there any way where I am able to change this and apply gear ratios, or something which will hold the same effect? I prefer using RIOS to my own C# program due to the easiness of creating macros and not having to fix a bug on some random line every other time I run it.
P.S. I’m competing with this robot in the Science Olympiad National Tournament in a couple of weeks, so It’s be nice to have this robot ready ASAP.
Thanks in advance; any and all help is appreciated!
