motor settings - Ola_H - 2020-06-08

Hi

I use a ST2000 motor and mechanics for my pypilot 
It has no end of travel sensors. 

-What do you recommend I put [max Current] to? 
-What is [servo period]? what setting do you recommend?



best wishes
Ola

I suggest using max current of 4-5 amps, and servo period of 0.4 seconds.

The overcurrent value needs to be set so that it triggers when the ram stalls but not otherwise.
