Re: Designing a Planetary Gearbox to increase speed?

If you want to play with one to see how they work, look for the Tamiya Miniature Planetary Gearbox Kit with Motor. They are about $20 and come with 4 sections to give you multiple reductions / increases.

(General plug, Tamiya makes a series of motor/gears/transmissions/etc. that are easy to assemble and watch how they work. )
