Re: Gearbox -physics related question
yes , i totally understand that the decreasing the weight is more important , im just trying to figure out, is is there a better way to cut the weight.
Also if rotational mass of the gear , sprocket , some round object , is decreased its less stress on the motor to get it initially moving , so it takes less rotational inertia to move it , so wouldn't that increase " throttle response " too?
And this isn't just for the gearboxes , its anything really , lets say a shooter for the AIM HIGH game. If the motor puts out so much power and , then you loose so much power in the drive train mechanism , if the motor didn't have to work as hard to move the wheel or drive train , it would spin faster , and shoot farther ....... right?
this is more of my theory
im in physics 1
