We will need two linear actuators to control the sailbot, one for the rudder, and the other for the wingsail. Linear actuators were chosen over other methods because they mechanically lock while no power is applied.
Requirements/Important Characteristics:
IP67 (can be submerged in water)
stroke length
Voltage: 12V
Static and Dynamic Load
You will have to communicate with mechanical team members in order to determine some of the above requirements. The two linear actuators do not need to be the same.
