Re: Custom gearboxes

Adding .003 of backlash is a plus for us mainly because of our low run time with gearboxes. These see maybe 10 hours of run time, so adding that bit of space makes things run smoother since gearboxes don't really get to break in much. It also gives you a touch of wiggle room if you can't hold thous very well.
