| New build for Newbie
Hello all, I am new to the RC world but I am experienced with electronics and ROVs. I am starting a build of a 4WD non-steerable RC inspection crawler for internal inspection of pipelines. I have been researching parts for my build and I would like to know if anybody can offer assistance especially in the control area. I have compiled the list below of parts I plan to purchase; 4 x 12v DC planetary motors 100 RPM (5 amp stall) 1 x associated hardware for wheels 1 x Taranis X9D plus with receiver 2 x Motor controller boards (7 amp max) 1 x camera with Pan and tilt 1 x servo driver board 1 x FPV980 900 MHz 800Mw Plug & Play System for video transfer 2 x 4S 18,000mah batteries All the above is going into a sealed 4" water tight tube which will be on wheels. Is there anything else I need on the control side? Can I control fwd/rev and the pan and tilt from the Taranis transmiter? Final question. I need to measure linear distance and have it on my video screen. How can I accomplish this using an encoder? Sorry for the long rant. Thanks for your time. Any drawings would be greatly appreciated. |
