Have you tried drilling out the star pattern at 3/8" and broaching a key or a 3/8" hex?

This motor seems like a good choice when you would like to use a hobby servo motor, but need much more power (and have a home position sensor). The biggest issue I see with this motor is that it can't support any load on the output. In FRC we love to abuse our motors and gearboxes by hanging way too much weight on them.

Do you know if these will be available from AndyMark after First Choice is over?
