Re: Motor Info

Thanks for the help. If I was to calculate using approx. 75% on the CIM and 85% on the drill would it work in practice or would the numbers only be usable in theory? For instance: if I wanted to get to 150 RPM I figured I could gear the CIM from 4200 (1->28) or the drill from 16800 (1->112), now if I was to use this in actual practice would it work well or should I expect torque issues?
