 Geekier than me? That's a goal you can shoot for. You might make it, too -- in twenty years or so. :cool: - Richard Wallace [more] |

Re: Were we ever limited on the amounts of non-CIM motor
NYCK,
It sounds to me like you're attempting a really cool and ambitious development, which is great. It's the off-season, so don't let yourself be restricted by what's allowed in a particular year's KOP - this would make an excellent demo-bot. For turning, you could use 2 LH and 2 RH window motors, or four old Globe motors, FP's with transmissions, or whatever you've got in inventory. Learn as much as you can and have fun with it. Do keep in the back of your mind what restrictions you'll face with next year's KOP, but for now don't worry about it. Also, if you plan to actually build a demo chassis, start working with a programmer or two on what sort of driver inputs (in addition to drive module sensors) that can be used/will be needed to control eight independent motors. Let us know how it works out. - Steve |
