Ultimate Troubleshooting Guide for Self-Balancing Robot | BalancingWii Project

Are you struggling to get your self-balancing robot up and running? This comprehensive troubleshooting video will guide you step-by-step through common issues and their solutions, from sensor placement to wiring, coding, and calibration. With this guide, your robot will be balancing perfectly in no time!

🎯 What’s Covered in This Video:
✔️ Ideal placement of the MPU6050 sensor
✔️ Choosing the right wheel diameter
✔️ Understanding sensor axes (roll, pitch, yaw)
✔️ Configuring and uploading code
✔️ Correct wiring and motor connections
✔️ Pairing with HC-05 Bluetooth via EZ-GUI app
✔️ Calibration tips and joystick tricks
✔️ Final demo showcasing robot performance

Stay tuned till the end for exciting stunts and a live robot demo! 🤖


SENSOR PLACEMENT
Advantages:

Amplifies tilt detection: A higher placement makes small tilts more pronounced in the sensor readings, which can help in fine-tuning control responses.

Provides better representation of the overall robot's center of gravity.


Disadvantages:

Increases sensitivity to external vibrations and noise, which can lead to less stable balancing.

May introduce instability if the PID controller is not tuned properly.

WHEEL DIAMETER
Advantages:

Higher Speed: Larger wheels cover more distance per revolution, increasing the robot's potential speed.

Better Terrain Handling: Larger wheels handle bumps, cracks, and uneven surfaces more effectively.

Stable Balancing for Beginners: Larger wheels often result in slower tilting dynamics, making the robot more forgiving for beginners.


Disadvantages:

Slower Response Time: Larger wheels require more torque and time to adjust, which can delay balancing corrections.

Reduced Precision: Larger wheels may make it harder to achieve fine-grained control.

Higher Center of Gravity: Can increase instability if not well-balanced with other design factors.


MICRO STEPPING
1/16 Microstepping (Highest):

Recommended for smoother and quieter operation, especially on smooth indoor surfaces.

Works well if your motors and power supply can handle the slight torque reduction without compromising performance.


1/8 Microstepping:

A good compromise between smoothness and torque.

Suitable if your robot needs to handle moderate tilting corrections quickly and effectively.


BATTERY SELECTION
3S (11.1V)
Advantages: Good balance between weight, power, and runtime. Works well with most stepper motors and A4988 drivers.

Disadvantages: Heavier than 2S but manageable.

Recommendation: A widely used option for self-balancing robots. Suitable for most setups.


4S (14.8V):

Advantages: High power output for larger motors or robots requiring more torque.

Disadvantages: Heavier and may overheat smaller motors or drivers if not matched properly.

Recommendation: Use only if your motors and drivers are rated for this voltage and you need the extra power for larger, heavier robots.

BATTERY PLACEMENT
You can place the battery on the bottom plate if you are planning to showcase the load test, bringing the weight near to the center will help motors improve stability as it requires less torque, in my first setup had placed it in the middle plate and didn't have any issues. Experiment on your setup.
