Hi
I've bought the Stinger kit on robotshop.ca and i've been using it since a couple of week. I've applied a functional PID to the system and one wheel seems to rotate faster than the other. Also, and more importantly, I've noticed an increasing play in the motor, I can literaly move the wheel 1/10th of a turn before I start to notice resistance while the other motor has no or little play. Is there something I can do to fix that?
Thanks a lot

Hello, I do not have a stinger but I suspect that the allen head set screw that tightens
the wheel hub to the motor shaft is loose. It may also be the wheel center screw that holds
the wheel to the hub. Remove the wheel and check the hub set screw.

Oups I feel ashamed, it was indeed the set screw that was getting loose!
Thanks a lot for your help, it is much appreciated!
