Hi,

Does anybody know of a (preferably) UK manufacter or reseller of axles/gear mountings and such to link a servo to a driveshaft, connected to a wheel?

Thanks

James

    I would get the Handbook of Inch Drive Components (or metric, wichever you prefer).· Goto www.spd-si.com and click free catalogs by mail and they will send you thier catalogs (I got a couple different ones, three of them were over 1,000 pages).· They have all kinds of small parts and axles every robot builder should get this.· They also have a distributer in England.

    As far as linking a servo to a wheel what I did was use the big round horn and drilled two holes in it so I could·bolt on a large spur gear to the horn and use that to drive a smaller gear on the axle.
