Indeed, thanks for the comment. See https://github.com/Ardumower/ardumower/issues/76 Frederic

Hi Jem, When it is looking fot the perimeter, it should indeed turn right. I was thinking one wheel would be stopped in this state, but I was wrong, the code shows that both wheels are running } else { // we are outside, now roll to get inside motorRightSpeedRpmSet =...

Hi Volker, Not sure what you mean. Our PCB already allows to plug in the ESP8266, so no need for a shield. For PCB 1.3 we will add a status LED and a jumper to flash the ESP code. The required software change for Ardumower is now in the develop branch and so official support for ESP will...

Congratulations :) I forked and now have my own version I can work on: https://github.com/FredericG-BE/ArdumowerDK Frederic

Nice! No, no special characters. For example: PerChange 216597 P 9.30 117 136 P 8.18 118 135 P 8.22 118 135 P 8.26 118 135 P 8.30 118 135 P 8.34 118 135 P 8.38 118 135 P 8.42 118 135 P -23.88 150 103 PerChange 217497 P -7.86 134 119 P -7.90 134 119 P -7.94 134 119 P -7.98 134 119...

I destroyed an ESP8266. It happened when I removed the 3.3V in an attempt to only reset the ESP8266, I have also been thinking that this pullup might be to blame. If I where you I would try without it, it probably works and is safer. Frederic

Hi Topio, I can't help you with the motor control right now. Regarding, the ESP8266: it is not yet officially supported. But it works, here you can find how to do it: https://github.com/FredericG-BE/ardumower/wiki/Using-ESP8266-WIFI-module-on-Ardumower Hopefully the ESP8266 support makes it...

Hi Sebastian, You are right, the problem arises indeed when useAccel and odometryUse are both false; in that case no code is setting motorXXXPWMCurr. I think your change will work. However, if you understand your changes correctly, it seems it will only tick in if "anti driver explosion code"...

In case your mower starts spinning when it has found the perimeter, make sure that odopulses are enabled. https://github.com/Ardumower/ardumower/issues/64 Frederic

Hi Patrick, All is explained here: https://github.com/FredericG-BE/ardumower/wiki/Using-ESP8266-WIFI-module-on-Ardumower How to build the .bin files is explained in step 3. But no need to build the code as the bins are provided. To control Ardumower, you need an application pfod or arduremote...

These are Banebots P60 1/256 gearboxes. http://banebots.com/pc/P60K-S5/P60K-4444-0004 http://www.robotshop.com/eu/en/banebots-256-1-p60-gearbox-rs540-brushed-motor-kit.html Standard canned 540 motors fit on it. In http://www.robotshop.com/eu/ you get them for free with the gearboxes :) I had...

Indeed it is very odd. Both ESC behave exactly the same way when controlled with 5V pulses, seems by design. They seem to do a good job at driving the motors. But at least at the input side they seem to cut some corners; I have also seen that when the pulses are stopped, the motors just keep...

I am making modifications to driver brushless motors. I bumped into a strange issue... it seems that the brushless controllers (ESC) I bought do not like to be controlled by 5V pulses. When I connected the controller to a standard RC receiver all was fine, but when Arduino was driving it...

Hi Alexander, Yes I have experimented with the test you wrote and at first I continued that route. That work is still here: https://github.com/FredericG-BE/ardumower/tree/esp8266_abandoned I was making a driver that has the methods of Serial and under the hood do all the AT commands. See...

OK, I am "ready". I could improve a few things here and there, but ok... B) I documented everything here: https://github.com/FredericG-BE/ardumower/wiki/Using-ESP8266-WIFI-module-on-Ardumower All code is in https://github.com/FredericG-BE/ardumower/tree/esp8266 (not the branch I mentioned...
