News of Motors

Hi everyone, I'm looking to develop a fishing simulator. I wanted to create something similar to "SimFish"(video below min 12:00).
I had thought of using a motor to drive the line with a cylinder to emulate force feedback.

I would like your advice on where I can read more about which motors can be used for ffb, as the motor will be turning in the opposite direction of the engine most of the time (which ...

Hello there !
So, i working on 360° project.
And since few, I thinking about the motor. What kind, power ... André gives me a lot of advice direction. ( he build is own 360°).

Actually, I m looking for the brushless motor solution like 220V 750 W or 1000W with a gearbox. ( i don't forget the saber is 30V )

My pit without me, seat, command ... 133Kg.

So for my brushless motor, ...

I want to buy/build linear motors (e.g. voice coil actuator) instead of using linear actuators for my d-box style motion platform.
Has anyone any experience or suggestions using these type of motors?
Thanks!

I'm building a 3DOF racing platform, and was searching for the right motors (i seem to have a real hard time finding motors, with enough power for a reasonable price)
I did find a 1.8Nm 3A Bipolair stepper motor of this size: 57x57x76mm
Attached is a Worm drive gear 20:1 with size: 97x80x63mm
With the motor and worm drive having a total length of 170.5mm
But it doesn't note the output torque from the stepper ...

Hey guys!

I need your advice and opinion please: I'm searching for a strong motor for a new G-Seat development I'm currently working on. Normal wiper motors do not have enough torque, so I'm thinking about buying some of these: http://r.ebay.com/3dtc09

They're chinese made and are available in 12V or 24V, from 100W to 300W and many different RPMs.

Does anybody have experience with this type of motors? I am greatful for any information or ...

I am so glad you guys mentioned grounding of wiper motor.

I am still unsure how to do this. I found the german thread about it, but unfortunately I am still confused after using Google translate.

Mr. Bergison did give wonderful advice, but I am not quite sure how to not cause an Home insurance claim.

I understand if there is not wire connected to inner case then it is ok. I can then just ...

Hi there all.

First of all you guys are amazing. So glad I stumbled across this incredible world!

I am a real noob , but I want to try and build a Berginson G seat.

But some of the parts I need are not available in South Africa and shipping costs make it unfeasible to proceed.

So, the suggested Wiper Motor for a Golf 4 is not available anymore from VW spare stores and only ...

Hi everybody!

Does anybody have experience with these motors?

I plan to build a modified version of the G-Seat and need motors with higher torque than ordinary 12V wiper motors.
I am greatful for your input and for any suggestions!

Cheers!

I am having an ongoing problem with my motors getting super hot after about 4 to 5 minutes of operation. The motors operate correctly but they get crazy hot. I am using the sabertooth 2x60 hooked up to a 12v car battery with 8 gauge from the battery to the sabertooth and 8 gauge wire to the motors. I have tried as many things as I could but there must be something wrong. The motors ...

I will try to explain this the best I can sorry ahead of time for leaving anything out.

I have built the 2dof using ardunio uno. I am using the sabertooth 2x60 connected to 2 worm drive motors by motion dynamics powered by a car battery. Everything is working fine but the motors have a constant jittering sound and tend to get very hot after a short time of use. I have been trying to ...
