Is this a bottom-only design with both motors powering the same wheel, or do you have a top wheel and a bottom wheel, each powered by one motor?

What voltage are you applying to the motors (i.e. are you driving this at full applied voltage or a reduced voltage)?

At how fast are the wheel(s) spinning?

I am on blackrock0's team.

The FP motors we are using are the 9015 FP motors

The gear ratio is 3.67.1

There is a 2:1 gear ratio from the motor to the wheels using belts

This design has two spinning wheels, top and bottom. There are two separate FP motors running the wheels.

As of right now, we are running full applied voltage.
