Re: Force Feedback Motors
Hi Wangjim,
Yes, I tried skewed armature brushed motors in my FFB development and they are definitely better than conventional DC brushed. (I thought Roland's Glentek ones were also skewed but I might be wrong).
However I did find that the feel was still spoiled a bit by the transition of the brushes over the commutator as the shaft turned - as each brush moved from one segment to the next the torque was interrupted a bit. Difficult to avoid this.... So in the end I went for the brushless motors to get an acceptable level of torque smoothness.
However the skewed rotor type might be worth a try... they will be an improvement over the Unites.

I'm trying again..
I'm very intrested in the same topic for the same application. Trying to source some motors from EBay, but the spesifications is a bit all over the place. Could these brushless moters be usable (still a bit expensive..):

Re: Force Feedback Motors
Wangjim, what kind of controller hardware/software are you using?
Re: Force Feedback Motors
Dear All,
I am also looking for an alternate to the Glentek GM2340-15 motor to use in FFB. Would be great to hear from the experts on this if there is anything available.
thanks and best Regards,
