    Well as you can see I guess you could say that I I have big eough Motors now LOL. Jeez these things weigh 20 lb a piece. I picked these up completly refurbished for $25 a piece but $75 in shipping. I don't know much about them but I know that they're out of power chair or wheelchair and I'm pretty sure the 24 volt and they have over 120Nm starting torque and around 40 -50Nm continuous torque. My question is will they work with the brakes still on there or should I take them out? Also will they work with i b t 2 or do I need different drivers, and lastly should I remove the engage/disengage lever? I kind of like leave it on just because if I ever need to move them or anyting without the system being on butt let me know if I have to or not please.
    I'm going to have three of these and three different wheelchair Motors coming from eBay here soon so right now I just have these three. Since I had the smaller windshield wiper motors before I went ahead and built a 3Dof frame as well for until I could afford a bigger motors for my 6 dof so I was thinking about hooking them up to my three dof while waiting on the other three motors. Please refer to pictures the first pic is of New motors, 2-5 are of my 3 dof and the last ones are of my 6 dof. I'm already noticing that in order to run these on my 3Dof Im going to have to redesign it a little bit 20220317_144632.jpg 20220317_145714.jpg 20220317_145706.jpg 20220317_145719.jpg 20220310_172548.jpg 20220217_230754.jpg
