Expected behavior

solve this problem

[IlIllllll]

It kinda looks like the cable to the motor is loose and communication with the motor is disconnected

[JohnsonLv]

But why cause this problem ,when I calibrated them ,no package lost!

[JohnsonLv]

still this problem ,who can help me ?

[IlIllllll]

For a while I was using a robotic arm that would disconnect when I turned it to a specific angle, I found out it was a loose data cable from the motor, could you try swapping out the data cable from the motor?
