Inside the hull AFTER buying/installing a surplus wheelchair controller.

#1 - Joystick and controls.  #2 - Wheelchair Motor controller.
#3 - Servo controls Left/Right turns. . #4 - Servo controls Forward/Reverse.
#5 - R/C Receiver.  #6 - Massive 12v 51ah SLA's (x2).
#7 - Modified TriPac controller for Turret rotation.

After the testing for 'Proof of Concept', I'll arrange things to be somewhat neater in appearance. The wheelchair controller is now running two M01 24v motors rather than the motors that came with the wheelchair as they were too big to fit in the Bulldogs now cramped quarters.


#1b - Two fans located directly on the underside of two vent holes. Currently run by a toggle located beside the Master Shut-Off. Will eventually attach a sensor to the motors so they don't have to run continuously. #2b - Current turret rotation setup. May give this a reworking although the speed is about right.
