    Hello,

    I just got my hand on 5x AC motors with worm drives and Frequency converters. I have done a bit of testing, and mounted a 40cm lever on the output shaft. It lifted 100kg with no problem and nice speed. I plan to make a new rig out of this. I made a simulator with 2x wiper motors a few years back. I know the frequency converters pretty well, and they are easy to control speed and direction from ardurino individually. How compex is the code/software gonna be compared to the two wipermotors i made with help of this forum a while back ?
