Hey all. I just built an OSR2 (standard with 2 servos, not the +) following tempests instructions. I’m able to get it connected and synced with MultiFunPlayer and it will run a script with a Fleshlight in just fine for a bit but eventually the servos drop down to the bottom of their range and start jittering really fast. I tried wiring up a quick external power bus and that seemed to make it even worse somehow. Couldn’t even hold it up in idle position. I tried re-flashing the latest firmware but that didn’t seem to help either. It will also do this no matter the player so I know it’s not a MultiFunPlayer issue. Really not sure what to do from here and would appreciate any help anybody could give!
It’s important with an external power bus to make sure the ground of the bus is linked to the ground of the board.
Beyond that, those are very cheap servos, and may simply have failed to keep up.
If you want to keep troubleshooting, be sure to include more details about your build, in particular the exact Arduino board you’re using (e.g. Romeo BLE or a specific ESP32 variant), and try to get usable pictures of your wiring.
