Sound when connecting liniair actuator on pypilot
#1
Hi,

Quick question, I am using a liniair actuator on the pypilot connected to a h-bridge with a max rating of 40A.
I've set the maximum amp to 20 (as far as the client can go) but I think that will be sufficient.

When the actuator starts to rotate the electromotor within, it sounds different than running it on a "normal" autopilot controller.
It works, but it has a (how should I describe) "whistle" or "constant beep" sound when it activates.

I guess it has to do something with the gains, but no matter what gains I try or amp setting, it keeps making the sound.
When doing long passages, I'd like the motor to be quiet.

Any suggestions?
