I think i have even more then 100rpm,
Fuse rated for this motor is 50A at 14.5V so it’s very powerfoul.
But there is no need for that power becouse there is no force on steereng wheel.
My concern is change direction amps, but it is a spiral transmision , maybee its diferent then gear.
Hello,
my apologies for my bad english. Does it work well with this steering motor? I’m looking for a good alternative to the phidgets that are a bit smaller in size.
Hello everyone. I’m assembling my system. Time to buy the motor. So I was looking for the Phidget motor, but problem was that it either comes from US (and last time I ordered something from the US it took a looong time to arrive here in Italy), or there is some sort of different issue (Phidget distributor here for instance takes only orders higher than 500€). So I was looking for alternatives in the process, and here comes my question: can anybody explain to me what’s wrong with this motor? I mean, same torque as Phidgets, a little slow, yes, but sill, I guess with a 4:1 gears it should do the job, BUT it’s too good to be true at roughly 30€. There must be something that makes it not good for autosteer
I would say a bit slow really unless you are certain you will not need to use headland turns or ‘U’ turn. If it was 12v i would say just increase the voltage to get more speed.
Thanks for your advice. I’m gonna buy it and give it a try. I need the autosteer almost exclusively for straight line guidance, so I’m not at all worried about its speed, that is the last of my concerns tbh. Hopefully it’s gonna work.
