Task Description

We need to determine what servo to use for rotating the hex shaft, which defines the pitch axis. Run some calculations or simulations to determine the required torque we need, and also the required gear ratio if applicable.

Constraints

To be written by the Project Manager. All constraints should be their own row of the table, if a constraint is removed it should be crossed out but left in the table. The append date is when the constraint was last updated (update this when constraints are removed!) DELETE THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE PUBLISHING

Calculations Review One

  • Underwent review during the Oct 4, 2023 Mech Meeting.

  • Calculations are off

  • @Conall Kingshott Said the current servo with the current gear ratio is good
