Re: pic: Planetary Transmition
1) The planetary shown is the banebots 56mm. However it does not use the week link of the carrier plates, those would need to be replaced and seriously beefed up to make this work.

2) Yes it is a two speed.

3) The reductions are:
High: 3.57:1
Low: 117.86:1

4) I don't know for sure. However planetary gearboxes in general can handle more torque than a spur gear since they have a larger number of teeth contacting. In addition given those reductions two CIM's is a little overkill on the output torque.

Basically i think it could be made to work but I would want to do A LOT of testing on a transmition before actually using one. Mostly its just a concept to be expanded upon.
