Good to see the car up and running. I agree that the floor surface probably isn't helping, although I assume that there are no changes from the video of the steering with the wire used to hook the steering servo motor to the steering rack.

Thanks for posting

Kind regards

These tests were run at 100% of the BeagleBone Blue's available motor driver power.

Moving very fast!!!!!!!

Does it behave any better at lower speeds? The video gives me the impression that it is moving too fast for effective control. Traction on that floor surface could also be a problem.

Still looks impressive [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-6f90905f-7440-4126-9c16-38a995075c54/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16]

Nice update on your project. Looks like the steering needs a bit of adjustment. I notice that the pit crew (cat) rushed out to check on the car, but it did not seem to find anything too interesting to work on.

Keep up the good work and keep having fun.
