Husky's wheels can handle a range of different terrains, but work best when inflated to the proper
pressure. Lower tire pressures, for example 10 psi, ensure better traction in rough and varied terrain,
where rocks or other obstacles may be encountered. This has the adverse effect of lowering drivetrain
efficiency and decreasing battery life, so high pressures up to a maximum of 20 psi should be used when
driving on flat surfaces.
This section lists a few possible issues which may be encountered.
No blue light when pressing the power button. Ensure that the battery is charged and correctly
connected. Use a multi-meter to verify the voltage on the battery terminals.
Comm light stays red/flickers. Your program may not be sending motion commands fast
enough. If there is a poor quality connection, some commands may be lost, so it may be
necessary to increase the frequency of commands sent.
E-stop light illuminated. Twist the red e-stop to release it, and confirm that the robot is not
locked out.
Battery indicator flashing. Battery voltage is too low for Husky to drive the motors. Charge the
battery and try again.
