AB  - (BYOE) This paper presents the design, fabrication, and implementation of a flywheel system for an advanced feedback control course.  The flywheel setup can be used either in person or in remote lab capacities.  Feedback control is a course taken by most electrical, mechanical, and computer systems engineers.  In such a course, students learn to design feedback control systems, i.e. the classical PID controller, often from models developed using first-principle techniques.  Since systems theory is mathematical in nature, students are often limited in what implementation and system identification is performed.  The flywheel system was created to first allow students to gain a tactile understanding of classical feedback control, but also to be used in an advanced control systems course.  This setup allows students to see the limitations of PID control, and to implement higher mathematical models along with gaining experience in performing system identification on an unknown setup. 
The flywheel setup was chosen as a laboratory testbed since it shares a multidisciplinary interest between several different branches of engineering and the underlying dynamics can be used in a wide variety of applications in aerospace, electrical, computer, and mechanical engineering.  In this BYOE presentation, we present the design, fabrication, and implementation of a system along with 1) design and fabrication insights, 2) fundamental equations and learning objectives, and 3) recommendations for remote lab applications.
