This is what I've been curious about and why I was interested in learning if anyone had any practical knowledge about how greatly the torque required to start moving varied from that required to keep moving for a typical drivetrain.
I'm trying to adapt a COTS product for FIRST use and so I've just been poking around to see what range of performance I can get from it to see if it's worth the investment.
