Re: pic: burnt up TETRIX motor
I burnt a motor today using a 3:1 gear ratio (not counting gearbox). The smoke came from the gearbox, but both the gearbox and motor smelled. By my calculations, our robot's fastest speed would occur at a 6.48:1 gear ratio (not counting gearbox). I checked my calculations, but why does the tetrix motor smoke like this?
