HI, Im very interested in the T200 thruster…for an underwater project. Im just wondering, what all is needed to make it functional? Is it just The thruster, ESC, and a battery? With The 1m cable, is a trigger included. Also what is needed to combine two T200 thrusters onto one trigger, do i need two seperate ESC?(probably) . Im trying to get an overall idea of what all material and software is needed to make it fully functional…and maybe a general price? Do you buy batteries from a different company? How long does an average battery last…one last thing, can i find a wireless system?
Thanks for your help
Eric
Hi Ericnorrie,
To drive the T200 Thruster, you will need the ESC.
Note that this model comes with the ESC: https://www.robotshop.com/en/t200-thruster-basic-esc.html
To control the thrusters, you would probably want to check this kit: https://www.robotshop.com/en/thruster-commander-motor-controller.html
Unfortunately, we do not sell the battery for this kit, you will have to choose from the shop or build your own battery pack.
Depending on what kind of battery you use, you will have different performance.
To create wireless system, you will need a transmitter and a receiver.
