From 9300352876f68ed7c12726d6fb8ff45773023b7c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jai Kumaar Ratadia Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2026 11:16:34 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Fix SO-101 assembly instruction order to match videos (#3242) * Fix SO-101 assembly instruction order to match videos Motor horn installation steps were listed after placing motors into the housing, but the assembly videos show installing horns first. Reordered steps to match the videos, which is also the easier approach since horns are harder to attach once the motor is seated. Added missing detail that bottom horns don't require screws. * Update docs/source/so101.mdx Co-authored-by: Copilot <175728472+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Signed-off-by: Jai Kumaar Ratadia --------- Signed-off-by: Jai Kumaar Ratadia Co-authored-by: Copilot <175728472+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Pepijn <138571049+pkooij@users.noreply.github.com> --- docs/source/so101.mdx | 13 +++++++------ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/source/so101.mdx b/docs/source/so101.mdx index 7c9df588a..1274b8282 100644 --- a/docs/source/so101.mdx +++ b/docs/source/so101.mdx @@ -236,10 +236,10 @@ It is advisable to install one 3-pin cable in the motor after placing them befor ### Joint 1 +- Install both motor horns.
