Re: Rookie Team needs help with D-Link and arm design

the window motors are your best bet, one reason is that you can put one on both sides of any kind of tower you have, this will make it less likely that you need further gear reduction. for a very basic arm i would recommend 2 window motors, the black plastic hubs that come in the kit fit on their default output gear, and they are unlikely to give you problems with back-driving.
