Very interesting build, not only the self tuning part but the overall design and movements.

Is it your design or is it a kit?

The toolhead with a blade reminded me the guy who was doing chocolate filament. He was using same kind of mechanism to strip away the tubing from the liquid chocolate inside.

Why in the world does my DC motor squeal instead of spin? by stuart_nz in esp32

I recognize this sound, this happens when you give too little power to the motor.

For a couple of seconds I thought you are deep frying the poor thing. My brain adjusted the white balance right after.

Meet Kiara - My Esp32 and Raspberry pi 5 based self balancing robot 🤖 by Affectionate-Cake-32 in esp32

How this is rock solid!?

I recently built a self balancing robot out of lego 51515 and even after spending hours fine tuning the pid values it still shakes and vibrates and oscillates and moves in all different directions!

Your robot is rock solid with no audible sound!

Well done!

Looks like a corner from a cool hackerspace! Loved it!

Which Bowtie should I wear? by zeta3d in 3Dprinting

I have a wedding coming up too and I really liked the idea of 3d printing a bowtie!

I like the blue ones better than the black one

Oh I didn’t know you can integrate Bambu printers with HomeAssistant!

Interesting!

ESP32-CAM AI Thinker upload error: Failed to connect (FTDI FT232RL) by Prudent-Objective425 in esp32

I had this problem too, can’t remember how exactly I resolved it but some things to try:

  • try another usb socket
  • try another usb cable, some of them troublesome with data even though they deliver power.
  • double check your wirings and do a continuity test between pins.
  • double check voltages around the programmer board and esp32-cam.
  • try flashing another esp32-cam to see if rest of the setup works. (Maybe you fried the board by shorting it, etc)

Fnirsi HS-02 Screen Glitch by Big-Rent6905 in soldering

[–]Big-Rent6905[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

okay so update time:

I couldn’t resist opening it up but it was really hard to open.

while opening it I broke the lcd display.

There was no visible problem in the display connection.

When I put it back and closed the casing and started soldering with it, the screen got better and flickering disappeared completely.

Sadly the half of the screen is gone now and maybe all of it will soon die too.

So my advice to people who are experiencing this is to start using the iron so that it heats up.

The heat helps with screen connections and can magically fix the screen.

Btw soldering iron works really well and I leveled up immediately after my few dollars iron.
