YOU should stay away from lipos.
ok nimhs nicads whatever
the reason i posted that list is so people can edit it and make it sound reasonable
thanks haz
how do you know if a brushless motor will do forwards and reverse?
you have just ignored what everyone said :|
get 2 drills, 2 elctronizes, giant cod radio gear, 12v 3300mah nimh battery from compenent shop, 2 100mm blue wheels from robochalleng and some hdpe
make a robot out of that.
Stay away from the rs-775's and gears.
if you want a couple of powerful drill motors these would probably be good they have allot of torque and the rpm is high so should be quite nippy

I'm all done posting here. When you are willing to actually take advice on board I will be happy to help. Until then I'm out.
Ben and Gary: He has just asked a question. He hasn't said what for. It's better just to answer.
Archie: with brushless motors, they have 3 wires. If it spins, say clockwise and you want it to spin anti clockwise, you swap over 2 of the 3 wires. There is no set pattern to this, so just swap until it does what you want.
So you know, brushless motors don't reverse direction on a normal brushless ESC. That's why people don't use them for drive motors.
sadly i'm with gary.
I'm bored of posting the same answer again and again, and this guy wont listen to us....
i have already said i will start simple.
i am listening and have taken your advice on board.
the reason i posted that list is so i can sort out how much money to spend on my first simple robot.

if you can stop the hammer function on it, they are seriously.powerful.drive motors
i will try to get something from eBay/car boot sales
on 18v is that near 1hp?
may take a bit if modifying though.
and for johnnos speed control (if someone hasn't alreagy bought it) should i get it?
that will handle a few of those drills won't it
i hope i haven't said anything stupid again :arrow:
