[FTC]: Problems with Motor Encoders?
Hey Guys,
Our team is encountering some big problems when it comes to the motor encoders on the 12V DC drive motors. It seems that the brass/copper thing the encoder collar is mounted to spins freely when it should be stationary. We have tried multiple encoders on multiple motors and they all have the same problem. The spinning encoder allows for inaccurate readings and allows the encoder wires to get chewed up in the gears. Has any other team encountered this same problem? What can we try to do to fix the problem? |
