Update

Christmas came early for Drumroll





This is the second part of its winter upgrade, the first being a switchover to a lipo battery pack. Just need to get an ESC for the motor now to complete the upgrade, but that might wait until the new year as the Castle Creations controllers aren't exactly cheap.

I may have to change to a larger diameter pulley on the motor as the current one is looking a bit too thin to tap into for grub screws to secure it to the motor shaft. Current ratio is 4:1 so will lose some torque when increasing the pulley.
Got a pillar drill today so can hopefully start making a decent mounting plate for the motor soon. I'll need to pull out the Speed 900 setup first though, and what to do with it? Hmm....another drumbot?
