# Rotary cartpole (Furuta pendulum) — robot hardware config. # Lives next to the URDF so all robot-specific settings are in one place. urdf: rotary_cartpole.urdf actuators: - joint: motor_joint type: motor # direct torque control gear: 0.1 # torque multiplier (was 0.5 — too weak, caused bang-bang) ctrl_range: [-1.0, 1.0] damping: 0.02 # motor friction / back-EMF (was 0.1 — ate torque budget) filter_tau: 0.18 # 1st-order filter ~180ms (models motor inertia) joints: pendulum_joint: damping: 0.0001 # bearing friction
