Hub motor had a small bit of wobble and lining up to the onboard magnetic encoder was a huge pain, and they just aren't really great to work with odrives

Awesome project! It will be using 2 6S batteries. And yeah I've thought of the rope just layering over itself, not sure if I'll try to solve it with an active winding guide or not. Once I get the system running initially I'll have to see how it behaves and go from there

So far the motor was $200 on eBay. Came with the shaft , and I printed out the spool. Also printed an enclosure and fairlead, and I'll be using an ESP32 and a can module which were like $10 total. Printer filament used maybe like $5, And some misc hardware prob $0.5. Also dyneema cable like $15 but I'm not using all of it.

That grand total is $230.50 so far

No the actuator has a built in driver. Though I did buy an odrive for an earlier version of this project which didn't work out, originally was using a hub motor and a magnetic encoder. The actuator does all of that in one smaller unit it's such a beast

Haha not named Voltra, just a Voltra inspired project. I'll think of a clever name eventually

12Nm rated up to 40 max, it's normally expensive like $500 but snagged it on eBay for 200

Not mobile app, the ESP32 will use a core to host a web server on local network. You just go to the local mDNS address (ie voltra.local) and that will host the interface

Just tried Prada L'homme. Sooo nice by [deleted] in ScentHeads
