Im doing an engineering project as part of my education course to make a LRV (Lunar Roving Vehicle)
Basically can someone tell me how you connect the wheel of a minature LRV to the propulsion motor.. Is it with the motor shaft that you insert the hub of the wheel onto the shaft?
@jamiesowell I dont have a diagram but my motor is 3V, with 65 RPM and gear ratio of 100:1
They may be a bit off, see what I have to do is power both front wheels so I am thinking a Geared motor for each front wheel so that'll mean two motors, Im just wondering do I connect the pin/shaft of the motor on the hub of my tyre and finally...... do I need Two seperate batteries to power the two motors of can I connect the two motors on ONE battery meaning two or one circuits
You could connect the shaft of the motor on the hub of your tire tho, you need to make a hole for the shaft in the hub or wheel. Plus you would need super glue.
Yes, you can connect the two motors on one battery.
BTW, how big is your LRV? I guess it would be easier to get an RC car and convert it as like LRV.
Yeah I was thinking the same as that, I hope the shaft is long enough for it to fit into my tyre hub, thanks again, I may have some more questions as my project progresses. What is your area of speciality?
Very interestin but i just dont understand how did you bent hte leaf springs and how did you bond the brass profiles togheter cuz when i try to make someting out of brass and i heat `joint the other one melts and destroys everything.

Hey, Could you please tell me how can I get some of those DRIVE AXLEs?

They're discontinued.
Losi micro 4x4 crawler's axles should be a good choice for now.

Thanks
Are you going to use any axles or attach a geared motor thing to on the wheel of LRV directly? Can I see the wheel and your motor?

Gearbox, Motors, Mechanisms, Propulsion etc

It is bigger than I thought.
You're very welcome.

ahoj~ probably you could buy them on ebay tho, they're discontinued. it is easier to buy losi micro crawler axles. good luck

Please where you bought the gear-box ? and from what material you made spring suspension ?
parek142536 1 year ago
@parek142536
you mean geared motors? you can get them at motor shops
those leaf springs are from pullback toy cars

Nice job however the joints mounted on the drive shaft are rotated 90 degrees that has to be 0 degrees --]----------[--

nice man it looks great i think you should try a set of 56:1 geared motors.I think they would be a good balance of speed and tourqe

balance of speed & tourque, that is it!

Hello: yes with the 100:1 gear ratio it is very good.
