Re: HELP WITH VEX

Two stage 10:1 gearbox with Vex gears is no issue....

With a 12 tooth CIM gear.
48 and 20 on a lay shaft. CIM drives the 48, 20 drives the 50 on the output shaft.

(48/12)(50/20)=10:1

Replacing the 48 gear with a 44, 42, 40, or 36 would reduce the gear ratio and provide faster velocity and lower torque.
