My 6 DOF with ODrive

Hi Stijn,
Today I will start the second Odrive on my simulator and just ask myself the question how you connected your 3 Odrive to the PC so that all three are recognized independently.
a) You have named each Odrive differently, e.g. odrv0, odrv1, odrv2
b) you have used three USB ports and assigned each one to an Odrive.
c) Somehow different
Actually, I would like to run all three odrive via one USB hub, so that I only use one cable and one USB port.
Hope you can answer me soon.
Thanks!
regards Wickie

[edit: Solved: doesnt work with USB hub, but with seperat USB connections. In the mover interface erery USB has a separate output window.
When using Odrivetool they are shown as odrv0 and odrv1.....

Hi

My acuators are bldc driven with ODrive.

They make noise but you can't hear it when playing because the noise of the game is louder.

Hi

Yeah I know but mine only cost €5.50 so I'm happy with thema and they look nicer in my opinion.

Hi

a) odrivetool does this automatically

b, c) I used 3 usb ports but you can use a usb hub if you want, a friend of mine uses a hub, it works fine

hello stine,

I also live in Belgium and just started my project. Is it possible that I come and see your simulator in person?

Rolf

Hey

That is possible, but must say that the sim is currently not in working condition. I also have exams at the moment so will have to wait a while.

Best regards

Ok Stijn,
Thanks for the quick reply. Maybe you can give me your email address and I can give you a picture of my project.
