Ok so I'm thinking of ideas like using servos for drive , mostly because they are easy to replace or upgrade , and I already need to cut out the bottom of Jarvis base to fit the vacuum power head. If I did one servo per wheel that's 480 oz in torque per side. Is this enough to scoot around a 50 pound robot? On carpet? I do have the option to use two servos per wheel which is then 960 oz in torque. The servos would only turn wheels via a gear a axle would still bear the weight so there's no lateral stress on the servos.
The servo I was thinking of was polulu Power HD 240 oz in standard size servo , just 19.99 each.
Thanks Troy I'm no.expert on servos but I think I remember something.being different about this kind , but if I could easily modify it for continuous rotaton its probably ideal! Maybe someone could tell us if this kind of servo is ideal
Yeah I hope someone does. It could be a good drive motor?
Glickclik servo is a wonder that I have it in charge, put a 360 th and 6 laps 2160 Grades (6 circles) my idea is used in conjunction with a large gear to reduce their 6 laps to turn around (180 degrees) and also multiply their strength by 12. The other servo 458oz/in. (sorry for the conversion) I have it mounted to move the head of my robot RSP and also I have supporting evidence; of his strength and is impressive and quieter than other servos. greetings.
I have not disassembled the servo but I guess a large ball bearing to the exit. I have proven with sevo arm bolted to a round tray with a large soda bottle (2 liters) and this tour with ease.
I hope that will work for you!
