k well if i understood what my teachers were tryna teach on gears..
the reason why you use the gear box is for mor torque.. right?
and more torque essentially means more power
whereas if you didnt have the gear box, youd have the high speed of the motor, but no power..
is it possible to not use a gear box (for weight restraints) and still create a good amount of gear reduction?
