Oleg Kalachev fd4bcbeb89 Minor changes 2025-07-10 07:27:53 +03:00
Oleg Kalachev 121b50d896 Increase motors pwm frequency to 78Khz
1000 Hz is too low frequency considering the update loop for motors signal is also 1000 Hz.
Decrease resolution as it's required to set larger pwm frequencies.
This change should vastly improve control jitter and remove audible motors noise.
