05:20 AM deshipu: rue_mohr: simulations too difficult for you?
05:46 AM Jak_o_Shadows: ah, damn I was gonna figure out how to use the 4017' s to drive servos today

11:27 AM rue_mohr: deshipu, if you build something in a simulator, its only suited for use in a simulator :)
11:27 AM rue_mohr: jak
11:27 AM rue_mohr: hmm
11:28 AM goppo: anyone know why some treaded tracked robots are designed with the driver at the top? like this https://imgur.com/a/WKMgZda
11:29 AM goppo: because of suspension?
11:30 AM Tom_L: where would you put it?
11:31 AM goppo: but more teeth would be in contact with the track if it was placed at the front
11:32 AM goppo: front and above the other wheels
11:32 AM Tom_L: put all the weight at the front?
11:33 AM goppo: yeah
11:33 AM Tom_L: naw
11:33 AM rue_mohr: hmm
11:34 AM Tom_L: having the weight at the front would bog it down in some places like grass, mud, tall carpet....
11:35 AM goppo: the back then
11:35 AM Tom_L: where do you want the CG to be?
11:38 AM mun: is there a good way to keep the body level on tracks?
11:38 AM mun: maybe something smart like rocker bogie.. but on tracks
12:11 PM deshipu: rue_mohr: that's so much untrue
12:12 PM deshipu: rue_mohr: using simulators you can actually make the robots do someting more than just limping around
12:12 PM deshipu: rue_mohr: and then you can implement it
12:26 PM nuclearnadal: hello
12:27 PM nuclearnadal: can i get 60v from two different DC bench power supply? each one can provide 30vdc https://www.amazon.com/HaoFst-Variable-Adjustable-Bench-Supply/dp/B07KXKNLTM
12:29 PM Tom_L: i wouldn't recomend it
12:56 PM nuclearnadal: why
05:40 PM rue_mohr: deshipu, I'v never seen a simulation that played out on a real robot
