It's one continuous belt wound by two motors. The thought is that it should provide more even lift and help avoid racking.

Lift ratios are 11:72 (CIM to gear) then 18:36 timing pulley to a 4" wheel.

We're at an 11:72 reduction to the 4" wheels. It's to fast. Fingers crossed that we can work something out in code. The alternative of having a second reduction wasn't practical in the design.
