I’m excited to announce a big price drop for the moteus-r4.11 controller for both single units and in volume!
| Quantity | Old | New |
| 1-10 | $104 | $79 |
| 10-99 | $99 | $75 |
| 100-499 | $94 | $71 |
We’ve been scaling up production, which enables these reductions of about 25% across the board. moteus-r4 is now by far the most cost effective motor driver with integrated encoder in its class. Here’s a quick comparison with similar products:
| ODRIVE S1 | Tinymover R5.2 | moteus-r4.11 | |
| Voltage | 12-50.5V | 12-38V | 10-44V |
| Continuous phase current | 40A | Not specified | 22A |
| Peak current | 80A | 40A | 100A |
| Dimensions | 66mm x 50mm | 40mm x 36mm | 53mm x 46mm |
| Open source | Proprietary FW and HW | GPL FW, Proprietary HW | Apache 2.0 FW and HW |
| Price | $149 | $108 | $79 |
I personally am looking forward to all the new projects that these lower prices enable! Check it out below or join the mjbots Discord to chat and get some ideas for how you can use a moteus-r4.
