Re: Bearings
I'm thinking about foil bearings. The reason I asked is that I have no idea of the operating speed. It sounds like the only motor that could even get close to using, or needing them (doubtful) are the Fisher-Prices without gearboxes.
EricH, I'm looking at the 2005 spec sheets now and the CIM is 5310 rpm give or take 10% (irritaing number) and the gearboxless FP is 24000 rpm.
