im reading throught the assembly manual from github right now, and in the beginning it mentions 20V DC power supply, when in the end it mentions a 24V one, which one is a better choice? I already have a 19.5V laptop power supply, would that work fine?
24 is the better option these days.... you get more power on less amps which is a good thing. The 20vdc recommendation is a vestigial remnant from the beginning of the project when the caps or other components in the drives had lower ratings than they do these days
Well I got someone to sort out the sim, and that VP Rhino is something special. A bit more fiddling and I’ll have it just like my ikarus I’m learning in. No more no feel touch and go’s, I’ve got a month to get my landings sorted before my lessons start again. Happy days
The torque in manufacturer spec is for spinning applications. For holding torque it's best calculated TqConst[Nm/A] * max_driver_current[A] = Tq[Nm]TqConst[Nm/A] * max_driver_current[A] = Tq[Nm], so on paper 57BLF03 achieves 1.98Nm @ 30A, it's a bit lower in reality
Completely concur with your happiness moving up rapidly on the list - I just paid for mine! I would much rather invest in a proven product/software knowing I have Walmis's experience behind it vs. guessing about what is really coming from others and how it will meet the rigors of dogfighting. Looking very forward to getting in my hands a few months early.
