Re: Problem with CIM-VersaPlanetary Setup (Choo-Choo motor)
If using the correct type key, it does fit into the opening on the collar, and the only thing that would cause it to fail is if the key actually breaks, or the key moves. Maybe putting the key in, then using some Loctite 609 to hold it in place could stop it from moving.
Also, with that ratio off of a CIM, at stall you are actually over the torque rating of the gearbox. With the 10:1 gearset, it can only take 74 ft-lbs, where a CIM at that ratio can output 89 ft-lbs. So I would defiantly be worried about actually breaking the insides of the gearbox with that much reduction.
