Re: Heat/Friction of 775 + Versaplanetary
We are also having a similar issue. We put together a 15:1 ratio versa-planetary, and after running it free on the table for about 3 seconds the planetary set was already quite a lot warmer, after an additional run of about 10 seconds to work some of the grease around (and yes, I have read the thread, there is a safe, but adequate amount of grease in them) they were approaching a temperature close to being too hot to hold. We are using all the proper VEX parts, and are put together identically to our others on our swerve system(obviously not the same ratio or motors). The ones on our robot however haven't ever gotten very hot, not until this 775 was hooked up to a set did they heat up.
