Hi all,
I’m currently using the ODrive Micro to drive a Tmotor AT2304 1800KV brushless drone motor, using the onboard encoder.
The setup and calibration processes all went smoothly. Motor calibration and basic control seem to be working fine.
However, I’ve run into an issue:
- No matter what I try, I can’t seem to get the **current draw above ~0.5A
- The motor has a peak current draw for around 10A, so I was expecting to be able to push it harder
- Velocity and Postion control all spins correctly, but torque/output feels very limited
- When I block the motor, it stalls and never draws more than 0.5A. (My soft and hard current limit is set to 6 and 7 respectively.) I expected the board to continue pumping up the current until the limit.
Has anyone encountered this before? Could this be a configuration issue or do I need to tweak something in my setup to allow higher current?
Any advice, pointers, or things I should check would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance!
