Re: in the pits
for making a powered cart to tow the bot which motors do u recomend using? we have many drill motors, 5 of the black motors and all the door and globe motors you could imagine. it looks like the globe and door iopener motors are too slow to move the bot at a reasonable speed (at 70 rpm and an 8 inch wheels we got like 0.067 mph...) it will be difficult to attatch the old black motors because 3 of them have a keyed shaft and the other 2 have the star gear on the shaft. the drill motors will be very easy to attatch, and we can get about 3.5-5 feet per sec with the right gear ratio and the tranny provided, but are they powerful enough to tow a person, itself and the bot on a trailer?
