This may be me being stupid and missing something, but how exactly do you go about gearing motors for peak efficiency? I get that at 4614 RPM with 45 oz-in of torque you'll get the maximum power output from a CIM, but say I'm gearing up a thrower, how would I actually go about this? Do I have to account for the resistance of throwing the ball as the torque and calculate out what that will put on the motor?
