Wi-Fi Disconnecting As Soon As Any Command With Servo Is Executed

Skip to comments   Jump To End

I am making a custom hexapod. When ever I give it a command involving servos it disconnects from the app. The wifi does not stay connected during all this. I have to disconnect the ezb and reconnect it in app to start again. And it happens again. How to fix this? User-inserted image

I can't tell from the picture, what is your power source? (specifically amps, and if you have it the C rating) Sounds like you are having a brownout from servo inrush current.

See this tutorial for details: https://synthiam.com/Community/Tutorials/163/1

I monitored the current and it turns out that the battery is giving out max current of 8 amps. Could it be the lack of current thats causing problem.

#3  

Absolutely. You don't need much sustained, but all those servos will pull a lot of amps when they start moving.

#4  

Should I change the battery, or changing the algorithm will do the trick?

Those servos are very inefficient and use a lot of power. It’s recommended to use ezrobot hdd servos - they are much more power efficient and robust. Your battery supply with those servos will need to be extremely powerful.
