It isn't assembled yet so I can't tell you the true speed. We had the motor mounted on briefly to make sure everything was working (turns out it wasn't: shaft wasn't hardened and it did damage to it in just a few minutes [our new hardend shaft arrived today ]).

Heres a link to the video I took (MP4): http://marsbot.org/files/arm_demo.zip

EDIT: All though it is mentioned in the video if you listen closely, the medical tubing we are using is weak compared to what we are expecting to use.

Also, if anyone knows of a good MP4 to WMV converter I would love to have it . Feel free to pm me if you know of a good one; thanks!
