Re: How do you wire a rotating component?

Route the wires carefully.

We're facing the same problem, we made a pole that sticks up behind the turreted shooter, and the wires go forward from there to the top, center of the shooter. Haven't tested it much yet this way...but the wires did survive a couple weeks of testing when they were just hanging all over the place.

Our turret only moves 180 degrees or so. That might be different than yours.

Using slip ring contacts is a tricky business!
