Team 26.5 Fluid Power Vehicle Challenge

This project is sponsored by:

Purdue University has been participating in the Fluid Power Vehicle Challenge for around 10 years. The objective of our project is to improve the design of the bike, specifically in the electronics aspect. The problem faced last year was the low speed and endurance of the bike. This project will focus on the elaboration and construction of electronics for the hydraulics and an electronic control system for the bike.
