Newb and at a loss here and need some Pro help. Getting close to making my Astromech ready to roll and want to ensure I am choosing the right motors for my bot. Based on the plans and materials I’ve been following, this will be a heavy weight bot, roughly 100 lbs at 100% completion, batteries and all. Will have a motor in each leg, 4 or 5 inch diameter wheels . 12 or 24V, haven’t decided, but I guess that depends on some answers I might get here. I did use the Drive Size Motor tool assuming to following.
100LBS, 2 motors, 2.5" wheel radius, 4.5 ft/s, run time 1 hour would be great!
What are some options here, thanks in advance!!!
