  • How high is the voltage going to the drive motor? maybe you could bring that down a bit to slow it to more of a aesthetically visible speed lol

  • @d3dreaper USB gives out 5.2V DC, I used MC317 stabilizer to drop it down to 1.2V. It's still high, but when I tried to use diode to dissipate an additional 0.6-0.7V, the whoile scheme started to heat up quite rapidly. Hence 1.2V it is.

  • @d3dreaper resistor heats up and drops ampherage, significantly lowering output power.

  • @MadMaxtheSniper hmmmm.... there must be a way....

  • @MadMaxtheSniper have you trying throwing a resistor in parallel to the drive motor? it'll increase the ohm load enough to drop that voltage down

  • it turned out really nice! great job! I think it is still a bit too noisy but I imagine that would be hard to change.
