Title: motorwheel
Post by: debbo82 on March 10, 2008, 08:27:57 AM

Hi all!
I'd like to build a robot with 3 wheels, but I'd like to use a single motorwheel for speed and stear!
I'm looking for a wheel with 80-100mm diameter and 30-40W power motor!
I tried to search but I didn't find any shop!
Who can help me?

Thank you very much to everyone!

Like an hub motor...but I need also the stear!
A typical motorwheel is controlled by 2 motors, one for the speed (hub motor) and one for the stear!
A motorwheel is the typical traction system of forklift, I need the same thing...but smaller!
