Help with Speed controlers

[Rapidrory]

As I say, I've never done it myself, but have a look here for some guidance on how to do it: http://www.fightingrobots.co.uk/thre...-spektrum-dx6i

If you're not up to the electronic flashy thingy, buying them from BotBitz or a reseller saves that bit of hassle.
Not cheap, but easy enough.

What you need and what you want can be totaly different things.
2 El cheapo battery drill intestines for drive calls for a esc that can drive brushed motors. See my previous list.
2 BIG deWalts or simular high end drills will be more happy with 2 BotBitz TZ85's.

Brushless drives are in the early stages of development. A few teams are experimenting with it, and there is promise.
But for now, it's not very common.

Weapons are another matter.... Each event more and more robots have a brushless powered weapon.
