Hi,

Im new to this forum, me and few freinds are thinking of building a heavyweight to go on robotwars, I can build all the motorcontrollers fairly easily as im fairly clued up where electronics is concerned, and the bot has been designed in 3d udsing Truespace.

Trouble is what uses the bosch 750 watt motor that so many people use? Im on about the GPA 750 or am i going to have to buy some motors from a component wholesaler?

Originally starter motors where thought a possibilty but they can draw serious current under load, and are only about 50% efficient. I was thinkling of using a Lucas SM 76 PE s(or something similar) starter,at 800W

Thanks ofr any info in advance :-)
