Replace dome drive #64

Closed dpoulson closed 6 years ago

dpoulson commented 6 years ago

The current pittman motor is rather knackered, this needs replacing and a better drive option done. Either a more robust friction drive, or a cog driven one.

Friction drive installed has been worn down due to grip tape on the inside of the lazy susan that was put on to try and remedy slippage.

Gear drive in place, and an acceleration routine put into ps3 code.
