    Hi guys.
    I am thinking in mod the chasis of my 2 dof. The copkit is very high. and i have a question....
    I have two motors more. Same of my 2 dof. Maybe is better build a new chasis for a 4 dof and upgrade the motion Sim yet. I only have the motion Sim of one week and I prefer knows the Simtools with the 2 dof but my chasis is a fail. The aliminium copkit is very noise. I Will build a new copkit welded.
    My question: wich one is the best option for a 4 dof? One motor For corner ore 3 dof + traction Lost?
    Other question: i am using a Sabertooth 2x60 with SCM3 and Arduino. What option I have for 4 dof? IMG_20210403_104907_176.jpg IMG_20210313_130152_245.jpg
