Hello everyone! I'm spending a couple weeks in the United Arab Emirates helping out rookie team 4928, the Arabian Knights. I think they're making great progress and it's definitely been a lot of fun!
My question is about bag motors. We want to use a bag motor to run our intake roller, but we don't know how to mount it to a shaft. The obvious choice is a gearbox, but since we're in the UAE, shipping takes a significant amount of time and costs an exorbitant amount of money. Does anyone have ideas for a different way to mount a bag motor to a shaft, like the kit igus bar?
Our idea was to drill a hole through both the igus bar and the bag motor shaft, but its so small I'm not sure how well that would work. Any thoughts?
Also, we're not set on the bag motor, we'd be willing to use any of the other kit motors of comparable size (we don't want to use a mini-cim because of weight - it's being mounted at the end of a long arm).
