How bad is the backlash slop on your drill motors?
Roughly in degrees. Does it have the same amount in high or low?
I am no authority on FIRST motors by any stretch but.....
Team "Segway" Motor choice Pros and cons as I see them.
Fisher Price: pros: Comes in left and right hand so motor speed is matched, good or reasonable power, cons: a little loud, motor can sticks out in the way,
Drill motor: pros: excellent power, durable, has cooling fan and vents, cons: motor assembly is long and will get in the way of either ground clearance or rider platform minimum height. lots of backlash in drive train,
Window motor (1998-2001) pros: slim and allows for the lowest center of gravity mounting of all motors, quiet operation, low power consumption, left and right version matched motor speed, cons: not powerful enough! a little delicate for abusive learners.
Vandoor motor pros: slim and mounts pretty low, should have good power, easy to mount, cons: only one hand available may veer at top speed, has plastic worm gear inside possibly delicate,
Chiaphua: pros: Big motor, motor itself is quiet, easy to mount,
cons: must have custom transmission, probably will get in the way unless a worm drive is used.
Seat motor: Forget about it!
