Re: RS550 Enough Power?

So Jim,

I'm looking at the RS-550, 19300 RPM Free Speed with a Banebots Gearbox with a Gear Ratio of 256:1, then maybe a 10T off the Banebot Gearbox to either a 48T, 54T, or 60T Sprocket attached to a 3' Arm Extension that at the end of it has a 1'6" arm extension that to has a gearbox setup on the end of it. All in all I would like to keep the entire weight to the arm under 7lbs.... What you think?
