Starnes Free 50 amp esc and Axi 2800 motor Contest
We have a special contest today , two new swift 50a esc and two New axi gold 2800 , this is 350 dollars of motor controllers and high end motors. It's simple to win , post your ideas of how you would use these in your robotic project , you can write a paragraph or more explainong concept , sketches or diagrams showing how you would use it , or even pictures of placement of where it would go in your current robot (that means even lloyd can jump in on this). Between voting from members and my personal discretion I will award a creative member these items.
bought some fiber plastic to very light weight,usinfg EZ board ,gyro,and looking at a way to add a altimeter
I think im going to put a pnumatic suspension system on my bot for adjustable ride height and stiffness. Im thinkg about having four seperate pnumatic cylnders oberating 4 individual suspension arms for the road wheels and of course its all powered by the brushless system running a small compressor to fill an air tank. Alao i might wire the suspension to an accelerometer, gyro, flex, or other type of sensor for active stabilization. Finally later i might think about making it amphibious some how.
Imrisaac you win man the idea to use a motor to turn a compressor was really the most creative and you already started the project.
