Fonctionnement - Solar electric motor

Place the back of the robot against the Sun and move the solar cell so that it is perpendicular to the Sun's rays.

To start, always give an initial impulse to the rotor. To reduce friction, occasionally oil the "faston" connectors of the rotor.

Here is a small video.

The weather was a little cloudy. In full sun the motor could turn even faster.

As the quantity of electricity is limited, it is important to optimize the system as much as possible, by placing the magnets as close as possible of the reel screw and avoiding any unnecessary friction (oil if needed, check that everything rotates freely).
