Re: Motor driven catapult gear ratio
We use a motor driven catapult with a toughbox+2CIMs+35 chain and sprockets.
Total reduction with gearbox and chains is about 25:1.
We also use a pneumatic cylinder on the back with ~8" lever arm that applies 40 lbs of pressure or so.
It can score with just the motors but the range is limited to a small window around 8' out, withe the pneumatics it is significantly stronger.
