Another update:
Got a couple hours to work on the cart last week. I think with another couple hours, she'll be moving under her own power again
- Built a new bracket to hold the potentiometer for the throttle input. This was needed to make room for the new battery
- Got the battery completely finished and ready to be wired/plugged into the cart.
- Finished cutting the plywood for the box to keep the electronics protected. Once everything is laid out and planned, I will pull the wood back out and seal it to protect it from water
- Now I'm on the layout stage. I place to mount everything on rubber isolators to try to reduce vibration. It may be overkill, but it will only help with the longevity of the components. Note: the solenoid is not mounted in the 4th picture, its just sitting there. I am most likely going to mount it on the back wall of the box.
