Building "Hard-Ox" the HW Robot.

[jay]

Good evening!

Ive not really had chance to introduce myself properly, Im Jay, 30, from Lincolnshire!

My first bot build was 16 years ago when i was 14!
It was built from old vcr players and a rc car on zero budget (lol).

Anyways..

16 years on, im still the geek i was back then!

I have recently started work on my HW Robot "Hard-Ox", obviously a play on words from the material it'll made out of.

I'm aiming to have the robot resembling an Ox with a spinning "nose ring"

I know there is a hell of a lot of work to do, most i understand,

However.. Speed controllers!?

Are there any decent motor and controller drive combinations out there? The bot doesn't necessarily have to be quick.

Ive been looking at the 4QD controller, but dont understand it fully, would it run a pair of 24v 750w motors, or would i need two?

Would i need a separate speed controller for the rotary disc?

Anyone with information is more than welcome to join forces!

To the shell,

I spent a day yesterday making the front part, im trying to be as original as possible,

I love Matilda, and the detail on a few other robots..

Heres Hard-Ox as it stands..
