... I recommend batteries, even in the first instance. They produce very smooth current output, even under higher draws.
If you use a power supply be sure of the voltage output, and keep an eye out for electrical roughness at higher current draws - you will feel this through the FFB system if it is there.

Hi Ian,
Yes i have read all docs and will use batteries first and then compare to power supplies, then use the best option.
Ian, i see Vectro used angle ally for mounting the motors. Do u think this would adequate hold for the motors.
Les
Hi Les,
Yes it looks a good solution. Leave a bit of sideways adjustment at the fasteners to allow some tinkering with the belt tension and motor alignment.

Here's our battery pack:

Hi Vectro,
Thanks,
Are you able to show me a close up of the mounting brackets fitted to the motors.
Les
I'll ask my brother to take you some closeup pics of the brackets tomorrow.Quote:

Hi OP,
Will post my attempt shortly. Just got to mount one more motor. I just had athought while i had the Carriage assembly off.
Did you consider adding screws to add extra strength to the front and back supports on both the base and Carriage assembly.
Just a bit worried the glue may let go. What are your thoughts.
Have you tested your unit yet.

Hi Olli,
