    some doubts about ODrive, with the new board it has 56v.
    pro simulator 6dof
    generally needs a more responsive engine! with a higher torque right?

    an example (190kv)
    which has a consumption of
    (maximum 65 amps / maximum 2450 watts)

    with these caucles/2 motors on a board the consumption would be?!
    130 amps
    4900 watts

    Could this cause some poor performance?
    it makes sense?

    I had an idea these days and I'm going to share it on my profile, I'm just going to improve the drawings more after it's on paper

    ps: forgive me if it doesn't make sense

    health and peace

    Hi Wallison!
    You will not have such high power consumptions with a 6DOF if you choose the right motor - ballscrew combination and correct Odrive settings. As an example: I use my Odrives with 6374 149 kv Turnigy-Motors (high recomendation for 10mm ballscrews) with 10mm ballscrews and a 2500W 24V Power suply. All 3 Odrives (6 actuators) together are powered only by this one PSU and I never had any Problem with too less power. The agresivity of the sim can be extreme if you want. But belive me- you will set some filters to make movements less fast and agressive, because otherwise a crash with a car is scary.
