Re: Hitec H-322HD Servo + 3.6 lbs of metal = success?

I believe we are also allowed to use VEX continuous rotation motors this year as well, are we not? You could gear a vex motor (essentially a continuous rotation servo) down many, many, times and get a slow movement, perhaps.

If you want a servo style motor hookup take a look at the FP and Banebots motors in the KOP and consider a banebots planetary transmission for them. Plug a variable resistor into the output shaft, so as the shaft moves, the resistor turns. Read the voltage of the resistor with an analog input on the RC and then program the motor to move the resistor to the desired setting.

Or just use lots and lots and lots of the servos... I believe the rule says "unlimited numbers" doesn't it?

Jason
