Tempest's Dispatches - September
🕑 Added 2022-10-10 21:45:20 +0000 UTCHello Benefactors. Here’s what I’ve been working on in September.
Having successfully blown up my only working gimbal control board in August I had to wait for a replacement to be delivered. I used some of that time to set about creating a custom board so that I could try out some L6234D motor controller chips that I had been able to get hold of. Once a new gimbal board had been delivered to me I was able to put together a test rig in order to use a brushless motor to drive a twist mechanism, which I put together and demonstrated on the September livestream.
I have also been working on the Tempest stroke algorithm, which I outlined in the July dispatches. I have added some parameters that I think were missing, which now make certain motions a lot more possible. This is work that will feed into the random stroker plugin, which I will definitely have to release at some point in October.
I also released an update to the clip ring gear for the T-wist, which has been due for months and months.
