General Discussion / [inprogress] What servo angles should be used for calibration for Tiny Arm?

« on: March 13, 2020, 10:42:14 AM »

The RobotZero preprogrammed code does not calibrate all servos the same.
(It does not even calibrate all the servos)

In order to assemble the arm, the servos need to be calibrated.

What servo angle should be used for calibrating prior to assembling of the arm?

(I also used the RobotArmExample, but it also drives different servos to different angles so calibration is not possible using that.)

• All four servos do not calibrate on Step 6 using the preprogrammed RobotZero processor.
• One servo does not calibrate, so I moved it to another socket and it calibrated.
• I tried two different RobotZero processor boards with the same result of one connector not calibrating the servo.


• All four servos do not calibrate TO THE SAME ANGLE on Step 6 using the preprogrammed RobotZero processor.
• If I move servos from one socket to another socket, they move to different angles.


• Parts AB6, AB7 and AB8 are not shaped like the images on Steps 9 and 10
• Step 17 should say acrylic ROUND part E instead of acrylic HEX part E

The GitHub repository has a folder, but no code.
The assembly PDF does not have a link.
The learning TinyCircuits sire does not have a link.

General Discussion / [abandoned] Windows 7 USB driver RobotZero board

« on: February 14, 2020, 05:45:26 PM »

Where can I find the device driver for a Windows 7 machine using the new Wireling kickstarter robot car kit?

(I get no device driver when plugging in the processor board.)
