Re: pic: 2980 practice bot Climber
The torque output at the motor shaft is divided by the radius of the drum to get force. Bigger drum, less force.
You'd be better, as mentioned above, using a lower gear reduction on a more powerful motor.
We've tested 48:1 reduction on a CIM and a MiniCIM just driving a shaft, and they pull 120lb fast enough.
