Hi guys! 449 here, we have been prototyping a flywheel design and we have come across a small problem that we don't quite understand. We first used a handdrill to power our flywheel and the ball went about 7 feet. Next we changed the motor to a 16:1 Geared BaneBot motor; we expected the ball to go farther since the motor was faster but the distance covered didn't change. We don't know why this is the case. Any idea or advice is greatly appreciated. Do you think it's a problem between the ramp and the ball or it is just a ramp angle problem (or anything else)? Thanks very much.
