News of Controllers and Drivers

Rather than using a potentiometer for feedback and face the problems of the pot wearing out, inaccuracy, etc, I am trying to use an optical encoder for feedback.

I am attempting to use the two photo-choppers from a old PS2 mouse. There are references for Arduino code for just using the photo-choppers directly into interrupt pins on the Arduino and I may have to resort to that, but initially I am communicating directly with the ...

Hey guy I am new to the x-sim diy projects.. I have been reading some of the post but to be honest I am getting a little lost..
This is a student project..

we want to make a simple simulator.. and want to use the video plugin to play back rollercoaster videos..
can someone suggest a parts list for.

Control card.
Motor drivers.
and motors?

thanks for the help.

Good morning, I'm testing all the electronics with mechanics and occurs a problem with the sensors and positioning axes.

I'm using radiometric sensors SS495a with mounting magnets similar to that Tronic described in your post and also similar to the user vicpopo explains in his post.

The problem that occurs is that in the stanby state Y = X = 128, the controller tries to position the motors in 128 but fails, an effect does ...

hey guys need your help i dont know how to connect this h-bridge to the arduino uno r3,,

it has

2 pins + - to energizise the hbrige
2 pins for the motor
and 3 pins input 1 input 2 and ground

as you can see on the image i have tried some configurations but all the time i connect, the hbridge ground to the arduino ground and the input ...

Hi all, i ahve a GT25 wheel which i want to use the FFB system from with a larger motor and steering column,

I have seen some conversions with older wheels but the GT25 uses an encoder on the back of the drive motor instead of a pot on the back of the steering shaft, making it difficult to hack

has anyone had any success with this?

cheers

Hi people.
I am searching controller board for 6DOF motion platform that is build on SEW Eurodrive 6 inverters and 6 motors. I found many solutions but there is no useful information how to install, what software is needed to work and is it complatible with X-Sim?
I would look any products that costs not more than 100-150USD with full manual how to connect this board to inverters network.

Hi Guys,

I couldn't find anything on the controller below, and whether it can be used for our simulators?

I currently have the dual 30A h-bridge from pololu, and it has quite a number of different pins from the AMC that connects to it, and while it does work, it can only do 30A max and it gets very hot during operation with my big motors, ...

Hi could connect this bridge to a K8055??
