Description:

Roboteq’s AX1500 controller is designed to convert commands received from a R/C radio, Analog Joystick, wireless modem, or microcomputer into high voltage and high current output for driving one or two DC motors. Designed for maximal ease-of-installation, it is delivered with all necessary cables and hardware and is ready to use in minutes.

The controller's two channels can either be operated independently or mixed to set the direction and rotation of a vehicle by coordinating the motion on each side of the vehicle. The AX1500 can be later upgaded with KIT-ENC1 to read encoders for closed loop speed control and position control.

The controller can be reprogrammed in the field with the latest features by downloading new operating software from Roboteq.
