The Brief
The brief for this year’s project was to design an electrical steering system for use of on the HR12.
The Solution
The designed, developed and prototyped an electric steering system with position feedback that would work on HR12. The system was developed to work with the power supply available from any of the power variants using off the shelf and pre-existing Niftylift components.
For the celebration and assessment day, the team built a quarter-scale prototype of their system to sit on their display stand. They represented Denbigh School and Niftylift well at the University of Hertfordshire. They presented to a panel of assessors and answered questions in detail about their report and project at their display stand.
