Paul,

No need for the derivation. I'm having enough trouble remembering how to calculate inertia after all these years. So I'm not sure I would understand it anyway.

Reflected inertia seemes to be one of those terms that needs no explanation because "everybody" already knows what it is.

But you answered the question with a remarkably appropriate example. I'm going to print it out and start working on a design spreadsheet right away.

One of our goals for the off season this year is to build an arm that we can tell to go to a specific position, and then have it stay put.

Unfortunately, none of us works with servo-design. My knowledge is restricted to using model airplane type servos.

Thanks for the help
