Re: CIM Motor Capacitors
Can you block up your robot so you can run the motor and keep the robot in place?
You might want to take a voltage measument from the 12v coming from the PD board. If its going below 12V you have a problem with the PD.
That output has a special built in power supply that keeps the voltage steady at 12v - no matter what the battery is running at. ~ unless the battery drops way low, 7-8 volts.
