Believe me i did too!
I was the first in the western world to have a KHR-1 many months ago so i have build up some experience.
No need to rubber the soles. In fact it's a bad idea because it will only
cause the robot to trip over it's own feet. The soles need to slide.
The reason the gaits don't work is that your robot isn't adjusted the
same way as the robot they used to make the gaits.
The secret is that you have to be really anal in adjusting the home
position of the robot besides trimming the servos right (see my other reply).
This is why you don't see many gaits on the net from other KHR-1 users.
Every KHR-1 is adjusted differently so it's no use.
I used the gaits as a learning tool. To get me started.
It's better to make your own gaits tuned to your particular robot.
Very important is the speed and timing of the movements.
Best is to begin in slo-mo. Speed setting 5 and 6 are good.
To fast and the movements won't complete themselves fully so the
next position movement comes to fast/soon.
This will cause the drunk sliding effects and losing the balance due to
the robots own inertia.
Making movements is an art and a big part of the hobby.
Those japs at Robo one are very good at that!
It also requires much patience.
They have had a few years more experience with that so we are not at same level yet.
Believe me i made the same mistakes so don't worry.
Some of it will be easier when using gyros i hope.Statistics: Posted by Meltdown — Tue Mar 08, 2005 11:01 pm
