small banebot motor with 64:1 gearbox
Im just wondering if anyone has tried using the small banebot motor with the 64:1 gearbox. We have a very light arm this year, and instead of using the 'pimp CIM' (the one with the spring and stuff) we thought we might be able to use the small banebot motor with the 64:1 gearbox. I saw some stats on it on the banebot website but i really dont know what that means or trust my own calculations. So, if any teams have experimented with this motor, i would to hear what your opinions on it are. How strong is it compared to other motorts in the kit? does it pull a fisher price and melt when it stalls? any comments on the motor would be apreciated, qualitative and quantitative.
