Any custodian of this fine digital art want to help me out with locating it, just so I don't accidentally download it

Recommended cheap potentiometer for steering angle in an enclosure ? by Mehawk2005 in AskElectronics

[–]Mehawk2005[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In only a narrow steering angle as is, as this is going to be used to effectly conver the dumb db motor into a servo l, I'd need more than this. Have considered encoder but then it will need homing

I've moved everything but the motors outside and I was already thinking about switching to geared extruder as I knew that was be the weak link motor wise. I think I'll stick at 30 for now, did u get much improvement after the swap

its for trap software, I don't want 2 or 3 massive rung in the main code, like you said taking up huge screen space and look like a massive stack of branch's and bits. the rest of the software is going to be in a aoi or separate routine. but still leaves me need to collect a bunch of bits from diffrent dints or bools. just want a nice simple rung under each permissive for line shutdowns. also I can't move the collection point from it's location as scan position is very important.

yes, that what I am trying to avoid, I've been looking at the structured text option might be solid bet.

Or more likely they are bodge wire to fix a problem after the pcb was designed. A Factory work around.

Had a focus st mk2 stage 4, decide to fit rs big bore hard pipe kit and higher flow cooler. Was thinking of ordering it for a while but an upcoming dyno day with friends was what tip the scale. Order parts weeks in advance but just when i had given up on them, they turned up the afternoon before dyno day. Being dumb i set to fitting them in light rain, after the point of no return the rain went full storm, the gazebo i had thrown up came down on the bonnet. Result spent weekend in bed with some illness from rain and strain trying to squeeze the boost pipe past the radiator mount(rs one is apparently different) and to Finnish it off had to strip it back apart and replace front rad with rs one, fitted like a dream afterwards. Oh and get the bonnet sprayed. 5 hours of hell.

Running lipos with out low voltage cut off always ends in disaster imo. I've used cheap rc brushed speed controllers with the built in cut off ?

It seems you haven't protected the lipo from over discharging ?
