Steve's original idea that I want to use is a geared motor at the end of the gun carriage with a spiked wheel that would spin the gun 360 degrees. After looking through many websites, I think I found a motor that will work. I'll be running this gun at 7.4 volts, so the motor will be spinning about half it's rated RPMs, I think.
Here is the motor. http://www.dx.com/p/high-torque-80rpm-12v-dc-geared-motor-91628?tc=USD&gclid=CjwKEAjwxtKeBRDMzoeQmYn5uHcSJACGCF3D5p5zz3sy2zZyJL-lgL8qzTj8MfNhtCW4q1FLSNQh3xoCsXzw_wcB#.U9bwumOTFIq Do you guys think the motor will work for what I intend to use if for? Also, will a 12v door lock actuator work ok on 7 volts? Thanks, Caleb > > -- -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
