Looking at the requirements and alternatives for a servo mechanism …
↓↓↓ Complete description, time index and links below ↓↓↓
Last time we went out onto the lake and took some real life measurements of the torque required to turn the motor shaft (link below). Now let’s take those measurements and come up with requirements and alternatives for a servo mechanism.
First we go over the requirements for the servo mechanism. Then we have a look at different servo features and what servos you can actually buy. Finally we compare four options to implement the servo mechanism and I ask for your opinion.
00:00 Intro – requirements and alternatives
00:56 Requirements – torque is not the only one
05:45 Servo features – interface, voltage, protection
10:02 Available servos – for RC-models and robotics
17:57 Alternatives – required effort, risks and issues
28:57 Questions – for you, three of them
29:55 Wrap-up – that’s it for today, bye
