Victor Input / Motor Control

[Jack]

Alrighty.. Here's what I'm trying to do:

We're going to have a robot in a demonstration. This robot has two "wings" on it, each of which is raised and lowered with the use of a drill motor (two drill motors in total). I would like for there to be a toggle switch to raise the wings (ie. run the two drill motors forward) and then toggle the other way to lower the wings (ie. run the two drills backwards). Of course, center on the toggle would be stop. I understand i'm looking for a three way toggle w/ center return. In addition, this toggle would need to be on about a 8-10' cord.

So, what's the easiest way for this to be accomplished? I looked in radio shack today, and saw a center return toggle rated to 25amps, but i'm not sure if that's enough. Secondly, i'd rather not have this switch on 10' of 12 gauge wire. (That's what i'd need if i were to directly wire all this together). I was wondering if i could use a switch or pot to contron a victor, to in turn control the motors... however I'm not sure how to go abotu doign that. I looked at this thread (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=14565), but it seems rather complex for what i'm looking for. All i want is simple off, on, and reverse.

Lastly, this of course isn't for competition, so i really don't care how "shadey" teh setup is. All it needs to do is work for a few hours, and not catch fire.

Thanks,

Jack
