This is not really an issue but some feedback on the assembly process using the specific material provided by the openephys store. Globally the instructions are great.

  • Figure 6 step 3 “cut two piece of 5 cm thread” doesn’t exist since OE ships M3 screws that have the proper size
  • Having the pinout for the motor included in the package would be nice (wires have different colors than the motor used in the manuscript). An extra note on how to reverse the direction of the motor (by swapping 2 wires) could be nice (the forward direction of the motor you use in your example videos might be the backward direction of the motor given provided by OE)
  • When I tried to press the spring rotor on the additional magnets on the alignment plate (Figure 7 step 6), the 4 magnets went deeper in the alignment plate instead of going into the spring rotor. I would suggest to put the spring rotor above to align the magnets, but then rotate the assembly and press the magnets inside the spring rotor once it is separated from the alignment plate.
  • The bobin assembly is not really described. The Figure 6 step 4 is enough but I would add a warning to explain how to put the magnets (like suggested in Figure 7). I made the mistake of putting the bearing first and then try to put the magnets by hand (because I hadn’t read figure 7).
