Hey,

i decided to post this in the car forum because its symilar to a car -
i might be building a battle bot for an engineering project, weighing around 10~20kgs (hopfully)

im thinking of powering it by a Magnetic mayhem motor for each of the 4 wheels will they be powerful enough?
anyways to the point: the thing needs power and I want to use 2x 10 cell 2000~3000mah nicad batterys
does this sound reasonable

i dont know much about ESCs so thats why im asking - i want to use 1 esc for each side of motors and use differential thrust to steer it,
what ESC do i need for a 10 cell 3000mah nicad??? the ESC also needs to be able to handle the extreem currents generated by the motor when it is stalled.

does this boat ESC look ok? (the one on the right hand side: http://www.ripmax.com/ProductFrames/P-XTRA-Boat.html)

Any suggestions welcome!!

thanks

Paris
