harry's stupid featherweight questions

Post by haz »

hey, for my next featherweight it thought i might build a replica of "private iron" off of spaced, ive got most of the parts worked out in my head but there is one thing that is bugging me, is it posible to make a big ass servo? like get a drill motor and some how atach a potentiometer? this would be for the axe, not desighned to be efective, just move up and down. ive got a load of cheapy esc's which ive modified to take 12v would they be any good?
thanks in advance, harry :D

Entirely possible http://www.teamonslaught.fsnet.co.uk/wiring.htm

You might be able to use a couple of the relays from technobots and a pair of diodes instead of four relays.

http://130.94.182.150/mowers.htm that's something similar and gives an idea on how to connect things mechanically

I just properly read your post, love spaced.

Don't think you'd be allowed to enter most of the other one's though :wink:
