FlyPT Mover

basically I see everything move in the right way except the actuators

That was the first idea. One window with the modules and some lines connecting everything.
But it was easier and faster this way.
But maybe I could do a main window with that diagram. Instead of columns, colours for each type and some lines connecting them.

Can you show me the rig window?

Doesn't really show much at the minute bt i do see values change, its almost as if the actuators are in a test loop like a sine wave

Hi,
Sorry, saw your question, Saturday, i think. But I forgot about it.
So you need position zero at minimum stroke (like @SilentChill , saw your post in discord)?

To make the rig start at that position, put the default actuators position on the rig with a low value.
Something like -999999 to ensure it uses the lowest possible value.



Put the 6 actuators with that value (like the one in blue).
Also be sure to use the correct range and middle value to have the actuator at the minimum.
For now, I think it's the only way to achieve it.

Can you post your setup file here please?
That's strange. Something is missing.

Its like the mover app is saying all the right things, but not actuators

Use 15 in the bit output of the rig

What is the range of your actuator?

no change

Besides the 15 in bit, put zero in the gain for yaw (blue field):



It might be getting rotations changes.

Range, if you mean movable distance then its about in the region of 200mm not much I know

Travel or range? Range is half the travel.
You might have 100mm range

Still same I have obviously done something wrong

Try to disable the lfs source and move just the heave slider.
Put 100 in the range of the actuator (on the rig)
Put 200 in the heave range (on the pose)

When you move the slider, can you put the actuator in a specific position?

Is it an issue that only have 2 actuators or something

OH!

You have just two actuators? Did you change the ESP32 code?

No I left as is, just disconnected number 3 I have ordered another motor for 3 lol

I was just trying to build basic seat mover, have i messed up?

Please make the last test I posted while I see if the code needs a change.
I think it's expecting the #3 to calibrate. But not sure, let me see.

Just tried test, no change it just does same almost as if command not going through serial

The esp code calibrate fine things move to top then bottom as expected only when I connect serial do things go weird.

@F-Zero-One

You need to change this define to 2 (it's 3) in the ESP32 code

Code:

#define NUMBERACTUATORS 2       // Number of actuators (for one board, please don't change, current code does not support less than 3 actuators. To use less, just disconnect them at hardware level)

ok so no wild movement anymore but none at all
