Re: Shooter motors?

One FP motor with a custom gearbox and a chain. Works rather well, and it weighs practically nothing. We originally used the minibike motor to drive our conveyor belt, but the thing weighs more than 5 pounds, so we geared down a FP for that too. Even with the gearbox it weighs several pounds less, and works just as well.
