Well my school is entering in the botball competitions this year.
To give us every advantage possible this year i was looking at modifying the controller board seen here to run more efficiently.
The course time is 2 minutes and involves running several dc motors along with sensors and servos. The battery is nickel and I want to upgrade them to lithium ion batteries to increase run time. Along with that I wish to overvolt the dc motors so 100% is their true limit.
The DC motors are controlled with an analog output, so to up the voltage to its max it must also do so retaining the original signal.
What circuit would I have to make to do this for 4 motors?
