Thank you so much for spending the time to show this. Have you a video on the gui as well. Thanks again

[@Dev255]

Hi, glad you enjoyed it, I don't have anything on the GUI although am currently creating editing a video on the use of the new Gameduino 3x Dazzler as a CNC display via HDMI, it works a treat. I do have other videos on the ODrive though. Hope that helps.

@@Dev255 thanks I stumbled across one yesterday. Trying to navigate through ground loop at the moment. Also doing repairs on servo motors Now. Revolvers are very interesting

[@johnstigglet7512]

Hi Neil, great job and explained very well! Now one of the next steps is to get the other motors running and tuned at the same time, this has been a challenge for me and most of the newbies. again great work, stigglet :)

Thank you, I will make another video when I get both working and when the unit is on the machine. I will share both the ups and downs too. I feel there is going to be some interference when the drives are under full load with such a sensitive encoder (needs to be optically transmitted possibly or a very stable supply), so will try to resolve it on video. Thank you for your kind words :-D

Very cool video! Well made using overlays and picture in picture. Although it's not what I'm doing in my spare time, it's fairly interesting to follow your project. Keep it up!

[@Dev255]

Thank you, it's nice get positive feedback :-), it takes a time to edit but I think the end result helps others learn too.

Very interesting video, thanks for posting. I look forward to seeing more. Subscribed.

Thank you for subscribing Fred, I am currently recording some video for the next one.

you could copy and paste from the tutorial. Also if you misspell something you can press the arrow up key and it will show what you have written before. basically you can press arrow up unlimited

Hi MMD, that is a very good point that I discovered later on, doh!. This would have saved me a fair bit of time :-D. Thank you.
