Ebike and escooter motors make great actuators

Love their obsession with not-wheels

@JenishRudani @byte_thrasher @BugejaCarl is the man

@geogod42 @UnitreeRobotics I’m guessing you mean high backdrive torque, that’s what worries me about them, getting destroyed from shocks. I’m a qdd fan.

@MartinLaGrang10 Main concern would be power draw if on a battery from overcoming cogging torque between natural cogging points, but I bet that’s low (can calculate that average power too)

@paws4puzzles @UnitreeRobotics Need to investigate

@T3hM4d0n3 @byte_thrasher Market size over the next 24 months or whatever, I'm pretty good on the hardware and firmware. What's really risky is if China-USA gets hot, then where do you make... everything.

@MartinLaGrang10 yes

@CalebChamberla6 I get why they do it and maybe even their data backs up not doing it but they probably miss out on thousands of hobbyists a year who will become purchases at companies and not have used them.

@ZECTBynmo You deserve them

@mov_axbx @TarsName I think it's FAA + real world costs are now known and are a slight bummer since next-day van delivery became common. Now they need to do every restaurant to every house since single fulfillment center to every house just doesn't matter as much as hot food.

@cixliv do any of the joints overheat on you?

@cixliv ominious i like it

@F_Botha_USA 😢

@hinathan Best Buy will fix that
