Frame resonance analysis: How does my frame design stack up to the TBS Source One?

In this video I compare the frame resonance performance of the TBS source one to a frame design I have been working on that combats resonance in mini quad frames.
Can my design reduce camera jello and run with less filtering?

    This is really interesting stuff. I never thought about vibrations in the way that some hurt more than others, and how it can only affect one axis. I've always tried to just get rid of it by brute force. Also, I assume those simulation graphics are a bit "exaggerated" for better visibility of the problem at hand, this would snap the carbon otherwise, no?

  • @ChrisRosser

    3 жыл бұрын

    Absolutely right, once you can visualise the vibrations you can really see which ones cause jello and bad flight performance and you can start to design to minimise the bad vibes! The simulations are exaggerated, these vibrations are too small to see with the naked eye but plenty large enough to affect hd footage and be picked up by the gyro.

  • @VyplavinP
    @VyplavinP3 жыл бұрын

    Really cool stuff, thanks. I noticed one thing which I think is not quite correct. You mentioned a couple of times that pure translational movement did not affect the gyro, but would still increase the jello. In fact, pure translation of the camera does not change the picture because the objects are far enough from the camera: body translational shaking is a fraction of mm, distance to the objects is normally at least several meters. Example of that effect: a steadicam can't affect the translational movements of the camera, but it removes all the rotations and that makes the picture smooth. In practice, camera mounts may, probably, transform translation of the body into rotation of the camera. But mount and camera are outside of your model.

  • @ChrisRosser

    @ChrisRosser

    3 жыл бұрын

    Thank you for your comment! You are absolutely correct that translational movement would not affect the camera. More recently I have been conducting harmonic analysis that include the contributions from many resonance modes. The effect of other resonant modes is to make the vibrations include rotations even when the primary mode is translational. That is why you can still get bad jello with translational modes. I didn't fully understand that when I made this video. But I'm learning quickly!

  • @ChrisRosser

    @ChrisRosser

    3 жыл бұрын

    Great question! In general, heavier motors will lower the resonant frequencies and stiffer arms will raise them. Damping is not going to be greatly affected by mass or stiffness. In general single bottom plate designs will have less damping and individual arms will have more but it's very frame dependent. This is why some people have problems with a build and someone else with the exact same frame doesn't.

    With resonance you will will see full body modes where the whole structure is moving and (usually at higher) frequencies you will start to see modified single body modes of parts of the structure. In this case single arm modes. The three arm mode was surprising to me but resonance is hard to predict. That's why the simulations are so important. I'll put a longer explanatory video on the backlog. Thanks!

But if I can get hold of BB logs I can make an attempt to match the Sims to the raw gyro data.

  • @ChrisRosser

    Soft mounting the flight controller is effectively a hardware low pass filter so it will attenuate all high frequency vibrations with attenuation increasing with frequency. I've never had much success soft mounting motors. If the mount is too soft it can make things worse by reducing the frequency of certain modes of vibration. If it's a tight soft mount its probably not doing too much in the range we are most concerned about. But I know pilots have had widely varying success with soft mounting motors. Probably worth a deep dive at some point!

I'm using bonded connections for the most part due to the high contact forces and friction coefficients when the frame is screwed together. It seems to agree well with the blackbox logs I've checked.

    @@ChrisRosser Hi, I appreciate you telling me about the contact type you are using, but I asked about how and where you are constraining your model from. For instance, are you constraining your frame to the mount points on the FC or are you constraining your fc to your frame by way of structural load constraints on the fc screw holes - this changes your reference point. One of my hopes for my investigation is to decide the feasibility of hard mounted flight controller and esc's. Also what software are you using to run your analysis as I am just curious as to if simulation software has gotten better for composite materials since my undergrad (they weren't fantastic in 2015-16) as they mostly treat composites as isotropic instead of quasi-isotopic (which admittedly most carbon fiber used in the FPV frame industry isn't because it is more costly or people can't tell the difference).

    Certainly a good quality frame will ensure that you can get a reasonable result easily. But people have also spent $100+ on a frame and still had resonance issues (particularly mid throttle oscillation). Even the most expensive frames aren't considering resonance in a scientific way. I'm hoping to change that!
