Re: Bag Motor Tips

Have you checked out the dual motor input for the VexPlanetary? The BAG motor runs much cooler than a Banebot motor. We have had to fan cool the Banebot motors being used in a high torque on/off process.

A cool design would be to use one transmission to ready the catapult, shift and lower the collector arm then run the roller.

Anybody ever build a 3 speed with neutral dual motor PTO transmission?
