Cool robot!
No, that was a "manual" assembly by placing the parts in the right position. I'm trying to learn how to use Assembly3 but haven't got the time for it
Indeed, there is a place for encorder rings and refractory optocuplers to use for that matter. But haven't got the time to work on the electronics for it. My idea was to use an FPGA+hard processor for the control.RickDeckard wrote: ↑Thu Aug 30, 2018 9:31 amBTW: It seems that this robot uses little dc motors with gear boxes to move each leg. I don't know how he determines the actual joint positions of the robot, but this is essential for a working kinematic system. With servos this is quite simple.
Would you care to make a tutorial on this? Especially your perspective coming from Solidworks and how you adjusted to FreeCAD ? We need more documentation of this kind.Celica_Supra wrote: ↑Mon Nov 05, 2018 1:56 pmThank you! It took me forever to figure out that I can do everything in part design- I originally was trying to use both part and part design and the errors were driving me crazy! I come from SolidWorks and I'm so impressed at how a free software is so powerful. Amazing.

Absolutely. I have a YouTube Channel of SolidWorks tutorials and I will start doing some FreeCAD. When I have time I'll upload a wheel tutorial very similar to the one I made here. For reference, my channel is:

Thanks
Fantastic!
