Mistake with legs "are in straight line" ????

Hello with all;
To excuse me for my small English I am French!!!

As you I am fan of RB1, mine is some little to modify (any black, and the LED IR is inside head, soon I would show you the pictures....)


I have a problém stability it has evil to move back and to turn it falls by ground, , walk before goes to little meadows,if not all the remainder goes it is stable , I have to check the assembly & manual well all is good, on the other hand if I respect zero the of all servos, I cannot respect the manual page 26 or it is known as that legs right & left must be aligned (servos 19/21 servos 1/3) "are in straight line" ????

if I respect that I am with zeros A 80 and 85???

Can you please tell me your values of zero setting of the servos (I think that as me you must be a little in lower part or with the top of 100 ex 94 and 98 etc.)

thank's for advance

Best regards

There is an error in the manual showing the leg positions. Here's a discussion on how to fix it. http://robosavvy.com/modules.php?name=F ... highlight=

thank for reply but :

I verified the positions bracket/knee its all OK !!!!
Knee to Thigh (Right/Left):
8 2
6 2 8 4
4 6

Knee to Shin (Right/Left):
4 6
2 6 4 8
8 2





My problem is the level of the adjustment on “setting” of the zeros of the servos, on the manual Page 26 it say that the servos 1/3 and 19/21 must be to align on the same axis, if I respect i modify too the position around the 100 (example reduce me to 85??) it is possible this ??? i think its not good !!!!



thank you to give me your positions setting zeros( or image screen) so that I compare because I am not on


thanks for reply

Errors in the manual post

About zero settings: yes you can go as low as 85. Make sure the battery is fully charged and after setting the feet lift the RN1 off the table and put him down again because the feet tend to get stuck when setting them if they're on an no-slip surface.

yes I made any all this

but I thought that the “fine” adjustment settings of the zeros was only of some small values around the 100
(example: 94 for 100 or 103 for 100, etc... is this normal that I must shift of as much ???


Please give me the copy screen of your values setting

With “setting values ” around 100 I do not manage to have this result (see photo back) to succeed it is necessary only I to lower low the values, you sure on it is normal?? therefore I ask for your values to you with to compare yourselves with mine ...............

I was sent an RN-1 to build and test for soccer. A couple of the zero values dropped real low... like what Gil said, around the 85 range. Also, a couple others shot up around the 105-106 areas. I thought for sure I screwed something up. After double checking everything, I came to the conclusion that it is just the variations in the servo during manufacturing.
My own RN-1 never fluctuated more than two increments in either direction. The second RN-1 performs just as well with such a broad zero set range.

Hello matt ;

indeed I have to test with other values while trying to align the axes it has L more stable air :lol:


I fear had of making silly things :wink:

in all logic it should be regulated factory around the 100 !!!!!
