Re: Designing a Planetary Gearbox to increase speed?
If you want to learn more than you ever wanted to know about multiple moving parts of a planetary transmission, please look here: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/1361

We did this in our 2002 robot and never got it working like we wanted until Championship. It worked like a charm then.

This was the very first year the CIM motor was introduced.
