Re: Nothing but Dewalts???
We used them in 2010 and 2011 with FP motors for various mechanisms, but have not used them for driving.
They work great and allow some nice tuning of speed and torque as needed.
That said, with all the different options out there now, we most likely will not be using them in the future.
I think the best thing we learned from using them is how to modify transmissions to work with different motors.
For example, in 2012, we used a 395 motor and a transmission from a "Globe Motor" to control the rotation of our turret.
