It worked in this case because it's just an intake roller (low impact), not a rotating arm or something like that.
So, you're saying that Team JVN was "comfortable" going up to 9:1 Versaplanetary, but what is the general of "rule of thumb" stall torque maximum for the versaboxes?

We tried finding that value a little while ago, but couldn't really find it in the documentation.
