Re: Design of a pull out eletrical panel
Our team has been mentally mulling this one over too. In terms of weight you don't want to get too fancy, but what do you think of a computer dock sort of strategy? You could put all of your low voltage type wiring (PWMs, sensors, etc.) through a large multipin connector to dock with additional higher voltage connectors for you motor wiring. Then design the electronics tray to slide in/out easily but still be secure. Like I said we haven't gone beyond just thinking it would be nice.
