What I'm trying to understand is that the guys over at the RC hobby shopes are telling me that an RC car motor can sometimes require up to 200A!!
I bought myself a Pololu High-Power Simple Motor Controller tahts is 18V-15A continuous. Which means it is not power full enough to get the full power out of the motor. Anyone have any suggestions on a high current motor controller I can buy for. brushed (give me ones for brushless as well) DC motor that I can interface with arduinos and Axon2.
I don't think that I will be, but pretty much I'm just trying to make a really fast car. I'm currently using a stock 540 motor, I would, as you said, assumed at 15A was more than enough.I want it travel at around 30mph.
If I were to buy an RC motor controller, how would I interface that with the axonon arduino? I would assume PWM, but how do control forward and reserve?
Sabertooth 2X25 uses 1.3 milliohm MOSFETs in its bridge. Going by our competitor's ridiculous rating schemes this would make it a dual 190A motor driver!
