Tests

“New“ Buggy

this is the buggy which has a new drive motor gear ration 6:35 instead of 11:35

At 5V motor input we get:

229/8=28.6 Hz or 1717 RPM

0.425 ms is our delta with a “fixed“ speed on the motors

2.715 + 0.425/2 = 2.9275 ms would be the “true“ speed then we have a +- of 0.2125ms or +-7.25%

the delta looks to be similar when applying 4V and 3V respectively.

Note that this measurement is using an envelope function on the scope so 7.25% would be between two magnets on the wheel, the actual delta between adjacent magnets can still be better.

Bench test 100% speed

The rc car was placed on the bench an a cylindrical magnet was attached on the wheel and the sensor mounted just next too it. The motors was supplied with a constant 5.5V and left for ~5sec until the rpm settled.

we can see a frequency of ~46Hz and a delta on the low pulse of +-0.129ms.
