Any thoughts on the Open Robotic Platform idea? A simple, open source, modular robotic chassis with standarised components and a set of design rules, would you like to see something like this? Also I might stream some projects here: www.twitch.tv/nikodembartnik
Hey 1 big thing. Almost all of the platforms have fixed casters in front and back but that makes an otherwise versatile robot (6 inch wheels) not able to go over even small bumps that are found in houses and up/down curbs outside. Ie imagine what your same robot could traverse if it had 4 wheels. (But 2 is better for spin/cost). How can we avoid this? Springs on caster? Caster on servo? Im struggling with this.
So coooool Nikodem!Glad to see you apply our CubeMars/T-MOTOR actuators to your platform, its highly integrated design allows for more torque in a small size. We appreciate seeing your further great design🤩
"How To Mechatronics" channel uploaded a cycloidal drive video a couple of days ago. STEP files also included and uploads to Fusion 360 very nice. I did it. His clearance is only 0.05mm which is too little. I'd use push/pull (Q) in Fusion to give them more clearance though. Specially between the cycloids and bearings. Take a watch if you haven't seen it. I think it would be perfect for a robot like yours. Slap wheels on the output plate and you're done! The motors you have are very nice, but very expensive and not many DIYers can afford. I think you should use them for what they were designed for. A robotics arm or manipulator.
Try old Powerwheels kid cars motors and gearboxes. People have even given me old Powerwheels. I've used those for base drive motors. For arm motors I've used car windshield wiper motors. Ive also uses trash cans for bodies. I just built big toys,but they are fun. Don't give up. Keep dreaming.
Some suggestion for your spacer rods: print them not in this filament direction (circular layers). Instead print them 90 degrees tilted, so that the filament fibers go from bottom to top (orthogonal to your base platform). They are then a lot more rigid.
Add an articulated arm with a stun gun built in and a thermal imager and you have a nice sentry for home defense. :-) (just make sure the bugs are worked out.)
In which mode you use the motor? Servo or MIT? Because I try to use your program but I have been getting in the position a "1" before the position data, I'm using an AK 80-6
Hi Nickodem! Cool project! thanks for sharing. You mention in your video you had to troubleshoot the CAN communication with the oscillator, could you explain a bit better how to do this? I'm using the same MCP2515 and I'm having trouble connecting to the bitrate of 1Mbps from the motors. My MCP module has a 8000Khz quartz, can that be the cause of the error? This is the error I'm getting when i set my Raspberry pi to a bitrate of 1000000 : "Error: bitrate error: 33.3% too high."
Waw, this is a really awesome video and indeed I enjoyed it. I've been working on a universal robot platform for years and actually it's a never ending story. You're lucky to get the T-motors ! I'm very fond of them, but... so sad that they are that expensive. Great job, looking forward to see more of this.
Thanks a lot! You can find everything on their website so I thought I am not going to repeat that in the video. There is a planetary gear with different reductions depending on the motor model. Max speed for this one is 45 rad/s and peak torque 18 Nm. Hope that helps a bit
That sounds interesting. And 18 Nm for such a compact package is quite a lot! Btw in general, at least for my part, it's better when the video provides enough info on its own, without having to navigate a Chinese-English webpage😊👍 anyways, I'm really looking forward to seeing where this project goes!
Asking people to support you works both ways, surely people like me, who've bought your plans etc and supported you, don't you think you could at least respond to questions we ask with regards to those plans etc? 😉
Great work from great stuff. Could you write about your learning path for robotics, programming, electronics. Which books, youtube lesson , material in which you have used to learn those fields.
jo nikodem, could u pleas make a video showing your Mac setup. what IDEs u using why u choose to use fusion etc. appreciate ur videos. greetings from Germany
Depending on the ROS there are manuals online. Basics of this kind of operating system are also a lot here on YT. It all starts with good programming skills. These OS are not really special if you have basic knowledge of normal operation systems.
Cheaper goes hand in hand with less quality and less torque. You could basically use every DC or brushless motor for a robot and attach some encoder. There are a lot of motor controllers which have a encoder input or you do the math an program such a controller by yourself. The shown motors have also a planetary gear inside, which makes them quite compact. You could add your own gearbox to a motor and increase the torque with that. There are nearly infinity possibilities for such a drive.
Yea... If I had still been drinking my morning coffee at the time of browsing the T-Motor Price list, I'd most likely have spat it out again... You weren't kidding about them being expensive. @05:18 I don't think that layer line orientation is looking promising man... Maybe consider printing the part laying on its side and either suck it up and have it print with supports for the wheel gap or split it in half and then screwing it back together ( I mean... what's one additional screw gonna hurt you anyways if it provides you a structurally sounder part... )
Would you have bought these motors with your own money? I have a hard time believing any hobbyist will have a budget that would allow to spend so much money for motors.

It's a great idea. Especially because I want to build my own version in the near future.
Put a chair on the robot and I’ll buy it for transportation 😂🥲🧐🤓
Yes absolutely!
👍

As someone who's studying Mechatronics Engineering...this is just pure joy to watch. Thank you for making this!
I am glad you enjoy it!
I love how engineers watch engineering videos when they want to relax. Do people in finance and law do the same? Yikes
same mechatronics final year
Haha same, especially during exams 😅
Same here. Hw engineer. I do usually more complicated things at work, but I enjoy watching this kind of videos.
So coooool Nikodem!Glad to see you apply our CubeMars/T-MOTOR actuators to your platform, its highly integrated design allows for more torque in a small size. We appreciate seeing your further great design🤩
You deserve 1 million subs. Please keep creating this content. It's high quality and matches your incredible projects as well.
Thanks a lot!

Those motors are sweet! They're out of any budget I might have by an order of magnitude, unfortunately.

yeah that's better idea to go with
Makes arm from printed hollow PLA. Puts 6 steel bolts in it.
Add an articulated arm with a stun gun built in and a thermal imager and you have a nice sentry for home defense. :-) (just make sure the bugs are worked out.)
How can I build a roomba like Moving platform? What is the name for such a thing?
Thank you for making this!
Do you have plans to make a similar robot only with nema 17 motors?
Imagine seeing this cute roomba looking thing and then it approaches you with maximum speed. Great content, keep it up 👍
In which mode you use the motor? Servo or MIT? Because I try to use your program but I have been getting in the position a "1" before the position data, I'm using an AK 80-6
can it be controled by step-dir interface? ive wonder what would happen if you fit those motors to the indymill
Does the python script send commands through serial to an Arduino which then sends it wirelessly through the NRF24 module to the robot?
Exactly
Could you show us how you programmed the motor because i would like to see the code and the connection!!
well done. you earned my subscription. looking forward to seeing more of your videos

In the past 5 months i was looking for smaller version of these motors... But i couldn't find a 5V version... They are hard to find. Any help?
in AK10-9 KV60 motor with v2.0 rlink it not communicate with each other using can bus , do you know can you suggest any ideas or procedure
i have the same problem but i haven't found the solution
Please make a video on managing finances as an electronics Engineer
Engineer here. Are there special financial rules to follow especially if you are an engineer? I don't think so.
@@maxhouseman3129 not an expert, but I thought it would be a nice topic
Nice one, I made a 3d printed 6 axis robotic arm with just one nema 23 stepper motor and 5 servo motors.
It was a great vid, but I missed more specs about the motor :) i.e. is it direct drive, what's the stall torque, max rpm etc :)
Thanks a lot! You can find everything on their website so I thought I am not going to repeat that in the video. There is a planetary gear with different reductions depending on the motor model. Max speed for this one is 45 rad/s and peak torque 18 Nm. Hope that helps a bit

Good job mordeczko, wesołych ;)
What library did you use in arduino?
Hi what parts did you use for this? And is the robot controlled over wifi or is it through radio?
Great work from great stuff.
Could you write about your learning path for robotics, programming, electronics.
Which books, youtube lesson , material in which you have used to learn those fields.
Great project! 👍😀
jo nikodem, could u pleas make a video showing your Mac setup. what IDEs u using why u choose to use fusion etc. appreciate ur videos. greetings from Germany
maybe in general how u are using your Mac
thanks Ben Katz for these motors
now thats a cool motor! do you know if you can adjust the Ki somewhere?
Kot ewidentnie przywykł już do robotów śmigających po domu, super projekt!
belt power transfer to the arm, only the base joints from the motor directly, each joint independent connection to the belt power drive line
or axle power transfer drive, again independent per joint connection clutch type
its like per wheel car axle clutch, not only one at the engine
so you cant make your own motors
check my designs for pure-dc brushless motors-generators
magnetic double "cog" clutch system
How did you learn ROS ? Do you have any recommendations to get the basics ?
Depending on the ROS there are manuals online. Basics of this kind of operating system are also a lot here on YT. It all starts with good programming skills. These OS are not really special if you have basic knowledge of normal operation systems.
I also tried to make one Robot Camera Car using Raspberry Pi 4, but never got chance to finish it.
Bye the way cool project
Great video...Did they also send you their Rubik link interface device and if so why did you use the arduino + your own pcb instead of the rubik link?
Yes I need this motor it looks pretty cool broh 👍
Nice project
Reminds me of the Turtle bot. Should have jumped into ROS first then integrated your script into ROS.
you should try that idea!
Cool channel
Wish I had found you years ago.
Thanks a lot!
can you provide the python file for better understand, if you are able to share the file it will be more helpful for my PHD project
9:04 Home Alone 3 remastered 😂😂
Great job! Would you be interested in a bit of programming work?
Title: You Need These $300+ Motors in Your Robots!
Anything Cheaper, like I mostly use Nema steppers, and
Cheaper goes hand in hand with less quality and less torque. You could basically use every DC or brushless motor for a robot and attach some encoder.

Nice
Bro the screws in the wheels hurts to watch. +1 for the FPV setupt.
awesome
Thank you!
man tmotor is doing something here... if i ever get the money ill take 6
over 900 usd for a bldc motor.... now i get why the odrive project is so popular
My College Robotics team is using these motors for a robotic dog.
It's fun to watch
Nice to see you
Nice to see you too!
Make some type of game using hardware and software or OpenCV
Amazing!!!!!
I like how you kept your monitor on top of 2 books. That's exactly my setup too ❤️
Are you using micro python for this project ? 🤔
Simple solutions are the best! I used Arduino (C/C++) and normal Python
używasz platform IO do arduino ?
Jeszcze nie ale ostatnio zainstalowałem i chcę się tym pobawić
Really nice, unfortunately the motors are way too expensive just to play with for me
Great brain 🧠 wish you all goods congratulations 👍
Yea... If I had still been drinking my morning coffee at the time of browsing the T-Motor Price list, I'd most likely have spat it out again... You weren't kidding about them being expensive.

Fajny projekt
Dzięki!
+1
I would also take some if they send them to me... 😁
But can it climb the stairs...
Thousands dollars per motor ? No, I do not need these motors.
claymore roomba
Interesting
Would you have bought these motors with your own money? I have a hard time believing any hobbyist will have a budget that would allow to spend so much money for motors.
No. As he said at the beginning, Tmotor gave him their motors for testing.
Cool...
wait you poland :0
you should not use 2 different types of lipos
Super, tylko szkoda że nic po polsku nienagrywasz 😒
oj tam przynajmniej się angielskiego nauczysz
WHY IS HE TALKING LIKE THAT? LOL
Because English is not my first language :) I am form Poland
$600 for 1 motor. Pure stupidity, just use a servo.
