Describe your question.

Hi everyone,

I’m using the Create 3 robot, which recommends a maximum load of 9 kg. I’m considering adding more weight and understand that I would need to adjust the acceleration to handle the extra load safely.

I would like to know:

• How much extra weight would be safe to add without compromising the robot’s performance?
• What acceleration adjustments would be necessary depending on the additional weight?

I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences from anyone who has worked with higher loads on the Create 3.

Thanks,
Alexander
