What gear ring ratio do you recommend for the mounting the 775 into the VersaPlanetary gearbox with the intention of mating it into a gearbox with two CIM motors? The CIMs are rated at 5300 rpm no load rpm. The 775 18V are rated at 19600 no load rpms. The resutling ratio is 3.679. Do we go with a 3:1 gear ring or a 4:1 gear ring?

Really love the concept of not pressing on a pinion gear. That is the most stressful part of building the robot because one small slip and you are out 5 or more days waiting for a shipment of a new motor. Also, anything to make it easier for teams without a lot of equipment to use.

Thanks.
