Re: Fisher Price Motor Into Drill Gearbox

hmm i wish i would have known about that at UTC or nationals heh i was talking about doing that beofre this season but my team just kept brushing it off, i hope you guys intend to go to the bash at the beach in the fall so that i can take a look at it, i would love to see it, (even in picture form) im always toying with drive train ideas especially after this year where my drive train left much to be desired, we had no torque at all. but we could get to mid field in under 3 seconds which wasnt much help when we were pushed right back to our starting position.
Just out of curiosity did you have any problem with the clutch slipping on the planetary gear box i know last year we did (driving me from drills this year) and when i stopped by 250's booth at nationals they were having problems with it staying up even when wired in place.
