You're not that old Charley. 60 is just a whisker past middle age, so still a puppy in your prime. Congrats for keeping the grey cells firing! You might want to look into 3d Printing. Its all circuit boards and stepper motors and really gets the creative juices flowing. Its led me down the path of learning CAD software and its really cool once you get over the initial learning curve. Good luck buddy!

@@jackdeniston9326 Hey Charley. I'm about the same here. 61, disabled, and enjoy filling my time working on various DIY projects. I did have three years of electronics in high school, but didn't pursue a technical school degree, or try to work in the field. I went straight to work doing construction until my body finally gave up. I had forgotten how fascinating I found electronics to be. I am just so thankful for all the people who are willing to get on the web and share their knowledge, it makes it much easier to learn all over again.

I send my salutations and appreciation along the line of Mr. Charley Edwards. I'm also retired, 67, spent my life in biological/biotech research and international research management. Now, retired, searching for a past-time offering great mental activity. I've tried advanced math, astronomy, and - now - electronics. Thus, stumbled onto your videos and am absolutely delighted to learn from you. Your presentation, though often using acronyms or abbrev's unknown to me, is reassuring and comprehensive. Your approach to such a complex topic as electronics (to the novice) is well structured and fun to attempt to apply principles revealed and suggested. I am avidly digging through your past presentations in order to learn about setting up and controlling stepper motors in order to control telescope mounts via a hand-held remote. So far? Not so good, have ordered more materials to attempt it again and review your coverage of specific aspects of stepper function and arduino-based control. Fingers crossed, I'm trying to move forward but for a total novice in the field, it's sadly missing something. So glad you're here and presenting as you do. One last thing: I am SO envious of your accumulation of gear and parts and their organization is a great model to follow. Keep up the great programming!

[@3dcriacoes763]

I totally agree with you! What a wonderful guy giving us this knowledge for free. And what a workshop to imitate (impossible in my case once I work traveling).

[@laypyu]

You're one of the best of teachers I know. Amazing presentation, superbly laid out, and wow, a super organized lab. Would love to spend all day in one of those really. I just started with the Arduino, and have to say, it's been a topsy-turvy but fun ride. And none of the other assistance I got from the internet has come close to the way you have put it out here. You deserve a medal for your effort. And a donation link to show our gratitude for these amazing classes. :D

I am an retired industrial controls tech that spent the last 33 years of my career with a very well known large company. Almost everything we did used expensive PLC's and robotic servos. Industrial servos used in industrial robotics are very expensive brushless motors with encoder feedback. (imagine paying $4,000 just to have a brake disc replaced in a robot servo!) Now that I am 69 years old and retired I am just trying to keep my mind sharp by playing around with Arduinos and other small controllers. You are a great teacher and your tutorials are very helpful, please keep up the good work.

[@ideacafe07]

There is a big difference between people that know there stuff and others that can explain it to others that don’t.

I have just completed the first exercise with lights flashing and the shaft turning as required. It has taken a long time to get here but I have finally managed to do something I have wanted to do for a very long time. I hope you can take some personal satisfaction for helping a complete stranger in another country create a basic platform to build on. You do not have to do this but I am so glad you continue to make outstanding videos with patient and complete explanations and software to copy. My ultimate objective is to use what you are teaching me to include some interesting additional activity in the clocks I build and also to drive a small CNC lathe that I converted some time ago but lacked the software expertise to make use of it.

[@edkonzelman2749]

Many thanks for your tutorials. I've have used Arduino, ESP8266, and ESP-32, ESP-32 Cam and Raspberry Pi modules for several years now, but I find your turorials to be excellent: detailed enough for the beginner, but sufficiently paced so that an expereinced viewer like me does not get bored. One minor point in this one: the units of torque are force-length, ie ounce-inches, not ounces per inch.

[@technojack3719]

I'm currently working on building a small walking robot that uses fishing line and springs to operate the legs. I originally envisioned using servos to spool the fishing line and lift the legs, but the tiny servos I had in mind didn't have enough torque to lift three spring-powered legs at a time and they only revolved 195 degrees, which would only lift the legs a fraction of what I needed. I had heard about stepper motors, but didn't know much about their function. Since watching this video, I decided to replace the spooling servos with stepper motors and initial test are very promising! Your videos, as always, have been a huge help in leading me through my understanding of robotics and electronics. Thank you!

[@whitefields5595]

One small point. At 46:40 you should tell folks to turn the A4988 pot fully ANTICLOCKWISE to set the current to zero BEFORE connecting power, then wind it clockwise to increase. If by chance the pot was fully clockwise then there is a risk of magic smoke from the coils. Suggest you just overlay a comment onto the video. Apart from that, I followed your instructions and all works well, thanks.

[@Dronebotworkshop]

That's an excellent point, no one wants to see "magic smoke". Thanks for bringing it up, much appreciated.

[@lordfarringdon]

Excellent instruction Sir. Anything I didn't understand is purely on me!! As others have said better than me, your audio, your pace, your visual presentation, detailed yet crisp explanation of the scripts, and your tidy demonstrations are superb. I am building a Flight Simulator and need to understand the use of steppers and their drivers to enable data from the flight sim software to drive steppers for instruments such as Altimeter, Rate of Climb, Air Speed and a number of other dial type gauges. I have lots to learn!! Thankyou for making it easier than I expected.

That's exactly what students/people need: clear and simple explanations with real life examples. You don't have to be a genius to understand how these things work. But the lectures and transcripts in university make you think so sometimes. Of course, the theory behind is important to understand what's going on, but why do we swallow theory all day without beeing showed how that stuff works practically? (impression of my university) That's how proper teaching looks like! Big thank you, sir.

Dear Bill. I'am so glad that i found this video and your channel. I'am a HamRadio Amateur and i'am about to develop an automatic tuner for my homemade magnetic loop. Since then i tune manually with an normal motor and some switches to minimum SWR, this is annoying some times so i want to automate this. Therefore i decided to use a stepper motor and an arduino. Till now i am way behind of beeing familiar with programming microcontrollers and steppermotors. Your video brought me much closer to this and finally to not giving up hunting my goal. Many thanks for this. My english is not very skilled so i hope i put it right. 73's and all the best.

Great stuff, I'm literally two weeks old into learning about the Arduino and electronics in general and this was so helpful. Thank you! What I'm trying to do is to use a NEMA 17 Bipolar stepper with A4988 and a rotary potentiometer to control speed and a button to be able and reverse direction. If you have any advice on how I can go from what you describe here: ( NEMA 17 Bipolar with A4988 - 36:41 ), to what I need i would greatly appreciate that. I'd like to compare the sketch and wiring from what I need to what you show here to get a better understanding of how I go from one to the other.

Having worked in this industry for more than 2 decades, I have to say that this video is the first AND most accurate I've seen to date. Some improvements I would suggest is to delineate the Static/Holding Torque a bit better. Static Torque is an indication, but the Motion Torque is the key. Detent torque is typically on the orders of 1/10 or less of the Static Torque. Would you consider making a video for closed loop operation? By the way; your workbench is a dream. So clean and well organized!

[@jmlocci]

Very clear video, thank you. Some may want to know what that "StepperMotor.setSpeed" entity represents and what unit it has. I figured that the calculation of this parameter is : 2048 * desired angular speed in rev/s (rps) * 0.6). Example for a quarter of a turn per second (0.25 rps) then setSpeed = 2048 * 0.25 *0.6 = 307.2, which corresponds to 1 rev in 4s (4000ms). It is homogeneous with an angular speed in steps/s.

[@contarinifamily2183]

Mate, you are a great instructor. Keep up the outstanding work. I use your knowledge to teach 13 yo Ardunio.

[@virgenalosveinte5915]

One suggestion: In the code for manually stepping the a4988 with nema17, if you remove the delaymicroseconds() between the digitalWrite(HIGH) and digitalWrite(LOW), the vibration of the motors is significantly reduced, and you can still control the speed with the second delay (after LOW). Im not sure if this can cause inconveniences but its working fine for me. Amazing video!

Thanks, one of the best stepper vids out there. Another dimension to this is to convert the rotation of the shaft into linear motion either with a rack and pinion, ballscrews, geared quadrants, etc. I want to open a series of greenhouse roof windows using steppers but I am struggling to find the right hardware. Most of the stuff appears to be too weak, designed to show the principle rather than hook it up to something meaningful.

Thanks for the nice comment about the video, much appreciated. As for larger stepper motors for your application you might look at Anaheim Automation or Omega as they distribute motors designed for similar applications. www.anaheimautomation.com/products/stepper/stepper-motors-list.php?cID=19 www.omega.com/subsection/stepper-motors.html

Thanks for this. I'm in the UK and I'm looking in the wrong places, so need to dig around more.

Thanks God for sharing your knowledge about stepper motor i have been on this field for many years but it's only now i know about this type of motor, t thougth it was an ordinary gear motor before.
