Desktop App slow and halting on Macbook

I am completely new to Bittle, just finished assembling one for my grandson. Currently at calibration stage, downloaded and installed Desktop app on my Macbook running the latest OS. App launches, but it is slow and halting, and frequently does not respond to any clicks on the firmware or calibrate options. I did grant it permission and sometimes one or two of the servos move and the board makes a sound, but I cannot get the program to run smoothly. Any ideas?

Please try to run the desktop app in the terminal via the following command:   /Applications/Petoi\ Desktop\ App.app/Contents/MacOS/Petoi\ Desktop\ App

Then please attach the log in the terminal interface.

Installing OpenCat on non-NyBoards (Like Arduino Nano)

Hello community! I'm a computer science teacher about to hold a two-day session for my high school students using a collect of Byttle robots, and we're so excited! We're using the kits supplied by Petoi, and it's going to be a great event! There are a few advanced robotics students that immediately wanted to know the software we'll be using, so I've been toying around with OpenCat to see if it's usable with other four-limbed robots and non-Nyboards.


I'm hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction for how to best/easiest customize OpenCat to work with an Arduino nano compatible board. I'm able to load the software just fine, but the Serial Manager loops on the question for resetting joints, and I receive two prompts to change my model and board settings and a second prompt to set EPPROM. I'm new to robotics, so I'm not…

We should have some in stock but not in every warehouse. You can write to support@petoi.com to request an invoice.

Question Re: OpenCatEsp32 settings

Hi,


My robot is labeled Bittel X V2 and I would like to verify that I have made the correct selections

regarding model and board type. I was hoping someone could verify this for me:


// modify the model and board definitions

#define BITTLE // Petoi 9 DOF robot dog: 1 on head + 8 on leg

Bittle X Knees and Arms go in the wrong direction when standing and walking

Hi! I have been setting up my pre assembled Bittle X, but I have issues with the Knee and Arm servos in the Joint Calibrator part. They go in the good position for the "Callibrate" and "Rest" poses, but if I try "Stand up" both the Arm and Knee servos look like they are going in the opposite position than what is expected on the image displayed.


Any advice? I attached an image of the "Stand Up" position so you can see what I mean.


Thanks!
