Re: Pre modded servo boards for escs?
This is our preferred Rx .. https://www.banggood.com/Flysky-FS2A-4CH-AFHDS-2A-Mini-Compatible-Receiver-PWM-Output-for-Flysky-i6-i6X-i6S-p-1214269.html?rmmds=myorder&cur_warehouse=CN We tend to use the FlySky i6 Tx. Or if you have a 6 volt Rx and a weapon motor, maybe the weapon ESC has a BEC fun...

Re: Pre modded servo boards for escs?
No mods needed at all.
There is no potentiometer.
These are really a purpose made small 2 way ESC.
Note that if you run 2S - 8.4 volts and an Rx that can only handle 6 volts, you will need to regulate a power source for the Rx.
I tend to use Rx that is rated to 10 volts, so no problem.

Hi Daniel I have been using the ESC from these .. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/DOMAN-RC-10pcs-lot-DM-S0090D-R-9g-0-08s-1-8kg-cm-360degree-continuous-rotation/32657260546.html?spm=a2g0s.8937460.0.0.40fb2e0eyqMeae They are different to standard servo electronics, in that they have a proper centre o...

Re: Power connectors identification / naming
3) These are probably a "JST DS LOSI 2.0MM 2 Pin Connector". The plugs have flat pins, exposed on one side.

Re: Another New Antweight..
Just watched GFTGA in action.
Impressive the way it rolls around.
How many servos does it have?
Any close up photos of the construction detail?
If it's not too proprietary

Re: Team Antiquarian build diary
I have used the JST connectors for motors, and cut away the outer plastic shield around the pins on the plug. This "depolarises" (is this a word?) them to allow easily changing motor polarity.

Re: Wheely big Help...
Hmmm. I've never disassembled one (in an orderly way) either. Now I look closely, the gearhead is riveted together, so you may ruin it for future use if you prise it apart. Just undo the 2 screws to remove the motor, and leave it off. The gears should idle around fairly freely. If you are mounting t...

Re: Wheely big Help...
Perhaps try running 3S (3 x 1S in series) on the slower motors, if your ESCs can handle it? Alternatively, you could remove the final gear cluster from an N20 gearbox to make the output shaft into an idler, for a non powered wheel. Without knowing your full setup, these are just ideas to get by in t...

Re: T_Y's Build Log
A tip I figured out, when removing/desoldering multiple header pins ..
Carefully prise the plastic pin holder off first, then desolder and remove the pins individually.

Re: Ant Attempt 2 - 'Tough Justice'
Yes, those are capacitors that come with the DasMikro, in the picture.
The N20 motors don't really seem to need them.
You will have to acquire the resistors separately if you want to use them for braking.
