Re: Open Hardware robot - Rosmo - Looking for volunteer(s)

A bit of further feedback from Rich who is developing the encoders: I see! That’s pretty cool, they even designed tiny holes to fit the SMD LED and resistors on the top of the board… TBH my feedback would be to make it less “tight” for the encoder. I have about 6 different encoder models in this sha...

Re: How to explode?

Thanks, I guess I can manually move every part to inspect it. I assumed it would be a straightforward feature to explode a model.

Re: Open Hardware robot - Rosmo - Looking for volunteer(s)

This is looking great now. Forgot to mention here is the https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rosmo-robot/Rosmo_ESC/master/Rosmo_ESC.step (rosmo_esc.step) For the encoder, I think we need something like this https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rosmo-robot/Rosmo_3D/main/V2/dev/1.1.png (excuse very crappy ...

Re: How to explode?

Yes that does work, thanks. This is the model I'd like to explode. Any idea why that gives an error? https://forum.freecad.org/viewtopic.php?p=595099&sid=6dc176c32b217f51e4469df29b433965#p595099 OS: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) (X-Cinnamon/cinnamon) Word size of OS: 64-bit Word size of FreeCAD...

Re: Open Hardware robot - Rosmo - Looking for volunteer(s)

But they don't align with anything useful.
Hmm sorry about that, I believed they matched up with the part I've been referencing above. I'm not the author of that part. I'll get in touch with Rich to see if he can provide more info.

Can you see a way of making it work?

Re: Open Hardware robot - Rosmo - Looking for volunteer(s)

Looking great!
