not, why? Are they unreliable, expensive, or both. I am designing a toy robot which lends itself to the use of sliprings. I need at leased six connections. The cheapest comercial ones I could find were 50 US $ this was too expensive for a toy. I believe the older version of Radio Shacks Armitron used sliprings, but I haven't been able to find one. does any one Know of a good design for homemade sliprings? I prefer the pancake style.
