Thanks for the insight waross! I am currently looking at brushless DC motors, but no designs have been finalized and I am just looking at possible options. Inertia just seems to be a problem since I am hoping to get the cart up to speed rather quickly and top out at a high velocity (minimum...
The system is a basically a cart/car mounted on a rail with 4 wheels. The motors would be directly mounted on each separate wheel. Car would weigh about 70lbs depending on the number of motors used.
Been trying to find an answer to this all day. Would really appreciate any help!
Assuming the electric motors are perfectly synced-up, would using multiple motors effectively split the inertia loads evenly among the 2/3/4 motors?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but with the equation 1/2Mr^2 for...
