Then you would have the ability to limit the speed via code and make it more robust to changes in the battery voltage.

I apologize if this is a silly question, as I am not a gearbox expert. You say that you would use the 775pro at a 2:1 ratio, but the versa planetaries that VEX sells start at 3:1. How would you get 2:1?
