Motors.VEX.com - VEX Robotics DC Motor Testing
DC motor selection is an essential part of robot and mechanism design, but the sea of specifications and options available can sometimes be confusing. To help aid budding robot designers in understanding this relationship, VEX has developed an educational guide that explains the four key characteristics of DC motors and how they can be used to select the ideal motor for your application.
Furthermore, to ensure that users have the data needed to make such an educated selection, VEX has tested seven popular motors (including the new 775pro) using industry-standard methods and published motor curves, peak power tests, and locked rotor stall tests for all to see and analyze. Head to http://motors.vex.com/ and pick your favorite motor to get started! |
Best gift to the FRC community since the 2005 KoP gearbox.
100% Richard approved.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
