This is where I saw the info on aluminum. Is this the same t100? Or a different manufacturer using the same model designation?There is no aluminum in my pump and cage is highly recommended since there is no stopping of this thruster, cage you shared is costly, I want to find source who can print these at reasonable cost,
now thrusters are more composit material and stronger, my t200 and t500 are great quality,This is where I saw the info on aluminum. Is this the same t100? Or a different manufacturer using the same model designation?
T100 Thruster (Discontinued) – Ocean Robotix

1 thruster can replace 3 mp60 in my opinion and 1 t500 can replace 4 to 6 mp60I love the idea of these, as I have multiple 8ft aquariums now, and my next house will have multiple 12 ft raceways as well as an even longer display.
I'll have to look mote into them . The controller is the biggest hurdle for me as I'm very much an analog individual. I'm wondering I'd a controller from a wavemaker could be wired to the thruster to control it. Or if the hydros wave engine could be used.1 thruster can replace 3 mp60 in my opinion and 1 t500 can replace 4 to 6 mp60
I have no idea what either of those are. I'll try to Google both thoughyou can use thruster commander to dial in the flow with knob or use the Arduino Uno and create sketch to have in constant on or have reef crest, wave and one for certain seconds or min and off for certain seconds or min, limitless options,
So looking at the two recommended control options, I assume you need to I stall those into a co.puter cabinet, connect some form of power source? Have some form of software probably hardware as well to communicate with the board?you can use thruster commander to dial in the flow with knob or use the Arduino Uno and create sketch to have in constant on or have reef crest, wave and one for certain seconds or min and off for certain seconds or min, limitless options,
Thruster commande is plug and play and don't need any code, you can set the thruster at one speed and they will stay on,I have no idea what either of those are. I'll try to Google both though
you will need the thruster, Basic ESC (signal) power supply and commander or Arduino Uno board and I can share the sketch with you that you can copy paste in arduino,So looking at the two recommended control options, I assume you need to I stall those into a co.puter cabinet, connect some form of power source?

I appreciate all the help. I reached out to my brother, who happens to be a robotic engineer. He laughed at meyou will need the thruster, Basic ESC (signal) power supply and commander or Arduino Uno board and I can share the sketch with you that you can copy paste in arduino,
May I ask how this design has worked out for you? Did you design it to allow the shaft to pivot freely?I recently make one similar to yours too.
