motor and electronics for a track loader
Its been a long time since i built R/C cars - those were all kits. Im going to attempt to build a 973 track loader. You guys have set the bar really high - the models i see here are extremely impressive.
Im trying to get my head around the electronics? - I need two motors - thinking 14.4V dewalt motors - Is there a better alternative? - speed controller (ESC - do i need one or two? i like the servonaut sound module as well, is that an option based on my motor choice? From what i gather the ESC has to be able to handle the current draw from the motors? - battery elimination circuit - this will enable me to power the radio receiver with the same battery used for the motors? - can the same battery also power the motor for the hydraulic pump? will i need three ESCs? - batteries - there seem to be lots of options now. i guess i would like to keep it simple here. something rechargeable. is a run time of 15-20 minutes realistic? - is there something else i am missing? I want to get this part worked out first so i can see how much room i will need inside the model. Hopefully i can get some help picking out components and get a bench test up and running. Any help will be appreciated. If there are any books or good sources of detail oriented information that would be appreciated too. thanks - Fred |
