Re: Single vs Multiple Speed Gearbox
In general, if you go faster with the motors we have access to, a pushing match might cost you by popping breakers. A 2 speed gearbox allows you to go pretty fast, but then shift to a much lower speed when you're in a pushing match so you don't pop a breaker.
Hopefully someone who isn't typing this on their phone quickly between classes can explain better than myself.
