You mean Doug's tank running over Steve's tank! John needs to brush up on his high performance tank driving skills. Doug needs to possibly beta his control system some more. Looks like some 802.11x latency to me (or plain old operator error)! ;-) Maybe I need to rethink this loaner thing!

Hi Neil, Things are moving, slowly of course, but I guess that's the way of it. The steel for the hull is sitting in my workshop, and my welder's in the bin. Started welding up some test pieces and it just went 'Phut' and when the smoke cleared, no more welder! Replacement is on the way though.

[TANKS] motor speed control

Is it possible to program a motor to operate at X speed when activated. And if so could you adjust the rpm it runs on during operation? Would I need to build a computer programmed control. Ryan P.
