What happens with RPM? If we were to match the free speed of the large and small CIM motors, how would I determine the RPM to use when calculating the gear reduction to give me the desired robot velocity. I am trying to estimate a true robot velocity but am getting confused with the varying RPM's under load.

Thanks so far though Paul!
