Main point of the project: The reaction wheel pendulum: The reaction

Main point of the project:

The reaction wheel pendulum:

The reaction wheel pendulum

is a pendulum with a rotating wheel at the end, which is free to spin about an axis parallel to the axis of rotation of the pendulum.

How we did it: 1. Assembled the mechanical part 2. Soldered

How we did it:

1. Assembled the mechanical part
2. Soldered the wires,

connected
3. Finding a solution for working with an accelerometer and an engine driver.
4. Debugging, nothing worked because of interference
5. They made separate power supply of the Arduino and motor, remade the signal wires from the accelerometer, making them twisted in pairs and transferred the driver directly to the motor
6. Selection of the speed of rotation of the motor and the algorithm itself, so that everything swings and stabilizes

Problems Engine speed is poorly controlled 2. Wires are too long

Problems

Engine speed is poorly controlled
2. Wires are too long and strong.

Rather close to the signal, which interferes with the accelerometer and drives him crazy with Arduino. Even with separate power
3. Also, the wires press on the spinner itself, which interferes with stabilization
