Re: Freewheel?

I should design one for Vex. We've stripped out many motors because of a wheel spinning 2000+ RPM on our Vex bot keeps on spinning after the motor stops turning, and therefore, strips out the internal gears in the motor. The little plastic clutches that they include suck because they strip out even easier. If I make one, I'll post a picture of it here.
