    I don’t think it ’s a good idea to use 12v to 24v converter. Because a high-power converter is needed, which will bring high cost and low efficiency.

    hello, brazilianguy, i'm also brazilian and built a simulator 2 dof, which is in final, i used old wheelchair engines and i see that its structure seems heavy, so i wanted to know if the engines are still taking the effort quietly, just in case I need to replace mine, I know which ones to buy.
    thank you.

    So, how's your experience with MD13s and SMC3? Are you happy with those drivers? I'm considering them + same wheelchair motors for my 6DOF build.
