just found out having a buget cut
i was thinking of having a r/c car and puting a armor shell over it like demolisher in this vid

to make a fw :rofl:
I think this has been discussed before (if you were to look through the forum archives): viewtopic.php?f=111&t=261
To save you reading that, if you want your featherweight to survive in any form it's a monumentally bad idea :proud: if you're having your budget cut I strongly reccommend you go down the antweight route instead.
Hehe, in that Trials video I love the fact Shunt's got the finishing flag attached to his axe - that's amazing :lol:
lol
You can still build a FW on a very small budget . As esc's go , if you arereally ona budget i could build a on of backward forward esc , there not great for fine control but they will get your robot moving and there very very cheap. (around 30 quid)
Are you thinking microswitches, servos and relays?
nope , servo inards , darlington arrays and relays :) , im loking at replacing the servo innards with a PIC miconcontroller but i need to get a programmer first :P
Much cooler than microswitches :)

Although there's no backwards, it does have variable speed.
I've also been looking at trying to use servo innards to drive an H-Bridge for full Forwards/Backwards variable speed. I have a few ideas but I'd really need to get some servos and an oscilloscope/data logger to figure out what will and won't work.
So that would mean that a servo simply splits the signals out into its component pwm signals then?Quote:
