4) Put the bucket back on and test. You may have to turn on the robot and run the servos to one position and then attach your bucket to get it lined up. The servos should be nearly silent if the numbers are correct. If there is alot of vibration or they move really jerky try again.


Could you go into more detail about that method? What I'm getting from the first and second positions is the starting point and the ending point, is that right? Also, where do the marks go and what purpose do they have?
