Re: pic: Banebot P60 Failure

What is the overall ratio? How heavy and long is the arm? Is it counterbalanced?

I'm just curious about the conditions prior to failure. We have a similar implementation using a BB 81:1 gearbox and have beat on it pretty hard over the last two days. We haven't experienced any problems yet, but if our implementation is similar to your, I may tear the gearbox apart and take a peak inside.
