    hi!
    A threaded pot directly into the motor shaft, looks quite dangerous...

    During the setup phase, you will have to wire the pots (red and black wires) accordingly to motor rotation (red and black wires), if wrong : the pot will break...

    During the testing phase, many things could go wrong (code, wiring...) and break the pot...

    I'd strongly advise you to use a coupling between pot and shaft.
    have a look there https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/from-atoz-2dof-arduino-wiper-playseat.4616/#post-45420

    and there is a flat part against the pot to prevent its rotation ;)

    yours

    if you have trouble with the ibt2's look at my 6d0f build I found some awesome 100A(200A temporary) drivers

    Hi
    Thank you RacingMat for the hint
    I know that I can not make a mistake with the electrical connection (polarity) of the potentiometer because I will damage it immediately.
    In the future I want to use Hal's potentiometers.
    greetings

    Friends I have a question :sos

    Which cables should be shielded?
    Is it enough to shield only potentiometer cables?
    Should the cable shield be connected to ground?

    Hello tadek,
    what's your current status with the build, i'm thinking of building a 6dof platform with wiper motors, i likes your idea of dual motors for each axis to double the torque, did it work ?

    Best regards.
