Regardless of who works on this proposed project, the first step may be to check the type and specifications of the motor you're using, if the motor requires a motor controller (not clear above). The easiest way to do this is to check for a metal plate attached to the motor somewhere which lists a number of important pieces of information, often as follows:

1. Manufacturer's Name

2. Type of Motor

3. Voltage / Amperage / Phases / Frequency

4. Wiring Diagram

This will be a good head start for anyone who might be enlisted to assist you. I'm sure there will be other items of importance regarding the motor as well.

If this is actually a robot, you may want to ask if this post can be moved to the Robot area, another section of these Parallax Forums.

· The problem starts with toe motor !·· it is home built· 14.5" diameter· 3/8" wide· 60 pole·Y three wire··I have an ametex controller· > My problem is the· r/c unit and interfacing with the controller I have no idea yet as to HP -torque· Wattage this motor needs to turn at 5 -25 RPM this is for a tool not an airplane· althow· , boats have reverce and forward speed control so somthing like that would maybe work to make this prototype ????

robofish,

In addition to all of Bruce's points, do you want/need wired remote or wireless remote? What is the model number of the ametex controller?
