scorpion mini v2

[lowtech]

can you reverse the motion with this speedo
any help grateful

As far as I am aware it is a bi-directional speed controller designed for robot drive. Although the v2 is much bigger than the original and has much more capability than is needed in an ant, I would recommend mr wallers speed controllers as a good investment.

I have wired it up correctly but it seem that all
it wants to do is slow the motion please bear with
me on this any help gateful

Can you take a picture ? I am wondering if you've done as I did once and running 2 or more controllers on 5v from the receiver rather than 7.4v from the lipo.

Your advice on the speed control having to be connected in parrallel I am sure will become useful, at the moment I am trying to get the claw working. Here is a pic of the armour, claw and speedo the way I am trying to work it however I am now unsure whether this speedo is connected properly. Sorry if you don't understand the picture.

Sorry but I wasn't quite understanding the pics. I drew up this diagram to show you how a 3 scorpion system should work:



I hope this helps

I have had enough with the speedo for now and the claw motor keeps breaking the super glue. So I am putting the claw robot to one side and I have decided to build a mini bigger brother.
