Need help with ESC for a robot project

Help & Support Robot Parts

Hi
I am completely new to robotics and need help with finding RC components for a robot project. We are using one motor for a lifting mechanism and needs to be able to operate the motor in both directions. We are also using two motors to drive wheels and need differential drive. I have seen dual bi-directional ESCs for RC tanks which look like they could work but I am really struggling to work out if they supply the correct current and voltages that are required.

Here is a list of the parts I think I will need:

Any help would be massively appreciated :blush:

Hello @leggyc123,

The parts seem okay and should work together.

The lifting mechanism is going to do what exactly?

Can you provide us with more details about the project?

Awaiting your reply.

Sincerely,
