Yeah Dyrodium.

Its for 'VCE' Year 12.

I dont think i can use the 2 battery idea due to the time constraint.

Toggle switches are my last resort.

I dont think i'd do radio control again, due to extra functions I have.

I figured out ...

Wow, thanks for the info leo-rcc.

I dont think ill use an esc or h-bridges just yet.

Yes Totally_Recycled. I wanted to wire the motor directly to the transmitter sticks.

I dont want to use to ...

5 time constants = full charge

i study physics

the supply voltage is 7.2v and so is the motor.

currently the amperage is unknown but ill find out by monday.

Without having to buy and ESC, would capacitors wired to a motor change the acceleration (significant amount)?

How large would the capacitors have to be?

How would i make a turret oscilate up and down at say 0 - 70 degrees without having to reverse the polarities to go either way?
I will only be using one motor.
Simplistic is the best answer.

Ive already figured out my locking mechanism. Its just going to be a motor with a arm attached to it, blocking the axe from swinging.

Does it really matter what voltage the relays are? Because I ca ...

I dont think i can use a seperatre speed controller because everything is wired up handy and the controls are perfect for it. (plus low on cash)
Although if i get the money i may go with that idea.
