To bring idea’s together, i’d like to add this ER11 chuck on a BLDC outrunner motor idea. Like mentioned in this theread:

Using ODrive motor controller

Hi @dlang, nice to see you here too! Yes I see the issue with the vertical load, and calibration. I see two possible approaches: Count the turns when offline. This is possible on encoders like these ones, that have an energy harvesting magnetic device that can take enough energy from the rotor moving to record its movement. A bit pricy though at $75 each. Lock the rotor when offline. Worm gear boxes are probably the best approach here, since they achieve the locking required, and also provid…
