I'm looking at the banebots website and after reading what you said about the current I was wondering if the BB-12-45 ESC (
http://banebots.com/pc/ELECTRONICS/BB-1245 ) will be able to provide enough current for the RS550 Motor - 12V?
I decided that I may as well go all out on this project. I am also interested in all the aspects of this project including the design, construction, and programing.
