Motor/ Voltage Compensation

Does anybody have a way to compensate for when the voltage to a motor decreases so that we can keep the motor output constant?

Re: Motor/ Voltage Compensation

Are you trying to run the motor at a constant speed? You'll want to use a sensor so you can tell what the speed actually is and increase the power if it is too low.
