Re: Issues with arm PID

I have a few questions about your design (a picture of your arm would greatly help understand your system!)

Can the motors to the arm be back driven?
Are the motors to the arm fighting gravity in one direction?
Should the motors still be "on" and stalled once the arm reaches the position at 3v?
