Re: Banebot 56mm gearbox - double D related
We routinely add an acceleration limiter to our motor control software to lower the maximum torque that is transferred to the drivetrain during rapid forward/reverse speed changes. This should reduce the instantaneous load on the problematic gearbox plate, but I don't know whether it will be enough to solve the problem.
I'll have the team dissect gearbox to see what damage we have sustained so far (~ 2 hours of driving).
