Re: Motor Torque Question

Well now im really confused how is the FP getting 94Ft Lbs of torque with the gear box ... is that correct if so ive been calculating the torque of the motors wrong ......
will u tell me the formulas to figure out what gear ratios to use and how to find out the torque of the motors(not at stall)

If you already know
we need 95 ftlbs of torque
the FP gives 5ft lbs (at stall) so how can a 5 to ratio give you 95 ft lbs... sombodys oin math wrong and i think its me
