Maybe a BAG motor with a gearbox from VEX? I appreciate any ideas and references to a specific set up that will work!

I have seen a wide range of ratios for intake wheels for this year. The amount of compression and wheel diameter will also factor in. From Andymark, have you tried the PG27 (27:1)? If you were to purchase items now, I'd recommend the VersaPlanetary due to it's flexibility in ratios, motors, and mounting. The weight looks to be a wash between the 2 options. We have a mix of ratios on hand for the VersaPlanetary too. I think we have the PG27, but would need to check. Let us know if we can help.
