Here are some lessons from the School of Cheap Solutions regarding the use of a standard motor and micro-switches configured as a MAG Speed Control (http://www.rctankcombat.com/articles/speed-control/) as a rotate mechanism: 1) Solder any size wire between the switches and the motor using whatever crappy soldering iron or micro-torch you have laying around. Don't worry about over-heating or handling things gingerly, micro-switches can take lots of abuse. Feel free to use over-sized plumbing solder as well. If you don't like soldering, crimp some quick-connect terminals on the wire and simply slide them onto the switch terminals. 2) Go battle and have fun :-) Frank P. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
