Re: Gear pitch preference

20DP Baby!

We standardized to this last fall, and it hasn't given us ANY problems.

Probably a little bit overkill for the early stages of our gearbox, but if anyone has seen our current layout, they'd understand why we go 20DP from the motor to the output.

It just makes things nicer.
