Re: Common Motor/Gearbox Reference Sheet

On the first sheet is a list of most every legal motor, physical specifications, performance specifications, and comments as well as a short list of relevant equations needed for motor calculations.
On the second sheet is the majority of common gearboxes, physical specifications, and comments as well as an estimate for loaded fps for a transmission.

Each motor has a series of colored dots next to it. The different colored dots correspond with the different gearboxes on the "Gearbox" sheet. If a given motor has a given gearbox's colored dot next it, it mean that those two are compatible.

If you are interested, check it out here:

Let me know if you have any comments or corrections.
Nice work!
