Mower speed from Sunray

[mfethe]

Is there a way to increase the speed when controlling to mower from sunray? I feel like the speed settings for float and fix are easy to find and modify but the controller speed I cannot change anywhere. Anyone have suggestion? @Mr. Tree not sure if you’ve messed with this in your code but it would be very nice to have a more dynamic speed of the robot.

I'm not sure if I understood you,
You can set how fast the rover should drive in the Spee(m/s) app. I have the best results with the default 0.20
Others can only be found in the Sunray master Adruino VG Michael

I know how to set the speed when it mows. I’m talking about how to set the speed when controlled manually with the joystick in the sunray app.

 

[Mr. Tree]

actually, that should be the setspeed as well? if i controll the mower manually, it´s pretty fast.. like what is set as mowingspeed.

So I should be able to control my robot speed here (see picture)? When I change it there I don’t see any difference in the joystick controlled speed just mowing speed.

Mhhh

I think manual speed is not manageable by the user using sunray App
The slider is for Auto mowing speed .

If it's not, you just could add a factor in comm.cpp to the incoming linear values. Actually I am not using the app to manually drive the mower, but an RC radio controller.

I'm using Alfred with Sunray, not Ardumower. During my implementation and set-up 2 years ago, I first used manual steering of Alfred with "Joystick-Ball" to record the perimeter and exclusions, but after some attempts switched to carrying the robot from point to point around the perimeter. Much quicker and more efficient in my view.
However I think to recall, the movement speed of the robot while using joystick ball was dependant on how far I moved the ball with my fingertip away from center (the more away from center the faster the robot moved in that direction).
For me on my small iPhone screen (or/and with my big fingertips ) that was too unprecise and cumbersome for perimeter recording. That's why I switched to carrying the robot around during set-up.

They should add a cheap Bluetooth controller for that in the package
