1/25 6 Axle Lattice Crane

[Southgate]

Progress report...I ordered that BaneBots ESC, installed it, and watched as the crane's upper unit can rotate at high speeds, and definately has improved lower speed performance over previous ESCs, but still can't run the motor smoothly at the required SUPER slow speeds. I put it into my box of RC stuff. I think it will work fine for wheeled speed control, but for ultra smooth-slow speed, I'm still having to use the servo turned train throttle mechanism. I do acknowledge that what I am asking of an ESC here is probably well beyond their intended purpose. It will no doubt find it's way into a future project, or it might be useful even on one of the crane's existing applications. At least one real plus is it's compact size, and the price was better than any other reversable ESC I've ever seen.
