Small motors don't spin up with ZeroBorg but do it with an electric cell

Hello,

I've 3 small Opitec motors of 280 mA each on 3 V. It is this model : https://fr.opitec.com/opitec-web/articleNumber/224013/zz/cID/c3I6bW90ZXV...

With ZeroBorg and a little load (they are parts of a robot), one spin up on 7 V but the two others don't spin up at all. They seem to be very weak at startup.

All spin up with a, 4.5 V electric cell with a powerfull start.

Why ?

Do I have to put a capacitor ?

If yes, with wich caracteristics ?

Thanks for your help.

What power output are you setting with the SetMotor commands when using 7 V as the input?
