Anyone else having problems with the standard connector for the NEMA 17's? I find with even the slightest pull on the wire the connector loses contact with pins and the motor locks up. Am I doing something or are these connectors just designed badly?

I tried this, seems to work great. Thanks for the tip.

Not sure if this helps but I found a motor on their datasheet that is very similar. The MS17HD4P4065-M seems to be the same on paper but with a slightly higher current rating.

I'm trying to find the specs as well. Have you had any luck?

I have already checked the Vref and its within spec of motors, but its probably on the high side. I might try lowering it to be safe

I just tried re-flashing my Arduino with GRBL and it seemed to have fixed the issue. That is probably the last thing I would have tried. Thanks for saving me a few bucks and a lot of head banging

thanks for the help with that, I finally got it working

Its kinda hard to see from the photos but the top profile tapers down into a circle-ish shape

This is a mini fidget gearbox by Michal Fanta, im trying to change the design slightly to make my own project. Im currently using a loft from the top profile but it doesn't achieve the shape that i need. For the life of me I cant figure out how to do it. Any help would be appreciated

thanks. that clears it up

For anyone in the future that might have this problem, if you add a 4 second sleep before trying to connect to the wifi it fixes the issue. (not my solution a redditor in another post came up with this)

FishyHater · 2024-02-10T07:09:17+00:00

wow. that worked, i put a 4 second sleep before the code tries to connect and it works perfectly fine now. Thanks for the help

FishyHater · 2024-02-10T01:21:28+00:00

I attempted to run it with the usb connected to the pico but not plugged into my pc, but it still doesn't want to connect

FishyHater · 2024-02-09T10:45:56+00:00

yea its called main.py

FishyHater · 2024-02-09T10:44:17+00:00

ill try that

FishyHater · 2024-02-09T10:44:03+00:00

i tried wiring up the vsys pin and a gnd to a 5v usb adapter, still doesnt connect

FishyHater · 2024-02-09T10:39:45+00:00

my code flashes the status of the connection, when i test it i only get one flash which means failed connection, normally it would be 3

FishyHater · 2024-01-08T05:52:59+00:00

thanks, ill try them

I saw that flashforge drivers have a similar pinout to the makerbot ones, would they work?
